What's inside

The matrix plus the explainer.

Six artefacts in one workbook. Drop it in front of the board and the meeting runs itself.

Duty Catalogue · 40 × 9

Forty duties, nine categories: Corporations Act, ASX Listing Rules, JORC, WHS, environmental, governance, disclosure, conflicts, remuneration.

Self-Assessment

Owner, Status (Covered / Partial / Gap / N/A), Evidence location, Last-reviewed date. Every duty gets a named owner.

Gap Register

Auto-sorted to the top of the stack. One list, three actions per quarter, trackable between board meetings.

Coverage Dashboard

By category and by director. The one-page view the Chair reads before the AGM.

Six-page explainer (PDF)

Categories in plain language, scoring method, the Chair's 30-minute annual-review agenda, four common failure modes.

30-minute board agenda

Drop-in agenda for your next meeting. Walk the matrix, assign owners, close three gaps. Repeatable.

Who it's for

Chairs. Company Secretaries. NEDs. MDs.

The Chair preparing a new director for induction. The Company Secretary refreshing governance papers for the AGM. The NED joining a junior board and wanting a one-page view of where the duty evidence lives. The MD and CFO briefing investors on governance maturity during a capital raise.

If any of those is you, the matrix is written for your desk. It assumes a four-to-fifty-person ASX-listed junior miner — not a Fortune-500 governance program. The templates are short, the scoring is structured, and the Gap Register sorts itself.
