Swot Analysis Of MWA

Introduction

MWA recognises that to deliver its strategic aims, objectives and priorities successfully, there is need for sound and robust governance arrangements to be in place. MWA governance is an organisation that is directed and administered based on policies. In order to have a clear strategy, both the Board of Trustees and the strategic management team takes an active role in setting and monitoring the direction of travel for the organisation. High quality routine reporting throughout the year ensures that both are kept up to date with the key factors that are likely to impact on the organisation and how we are responding to the impact on a day to day basis.

MWA has a non-executive Board consisting of a Chair and up to eight Members (Board members) which is responsible for its governance and strategy. Day-to-day management and operation of the organisation is delegated to the Chief Executive Officer.
