About Us

Effective board administration services that drive success. We make it happen.

At IGS we believe that good governance creates great organisations. Through our advisory, support, minute taking and other board secretary services, we help boards, businesses and not-for-profits to thrive – not just comply with regulations.

Tailored approach

Our New Zealand governance experts are committed to elevating the standard of governance across New Zealand organisations, because we’ve seen first-hand how effective governance feeds success.

Working directly with your team, we identify board effectiveness solutions that make your entity more efficient and effective. By taking care of administrative tasks and compliance requirements, we free up your leadership to focus on strategy, growth and goals.

No two organisations are alike, so we take time to understand your specific needs, culture and goals before creating pragmatic, tailored solutions that deliver real results. 

Top people

Our team brings years of hands-on experience in collaborative governance across multiple sectors. As independent governance advisors, we offer objective guidance that gives you the confidence move forward. Trust matters in governance. As your strategic governance partner, we maintain strict confidentiality and integrity in all our work, ensuring your sensitive information stays secure.

Competitive advantage

We’re known for our reliable, accurate and professional services. Rather than simply ticking boxes, we focus on working with your people to create governance frameworks that actively support your strategic goals.

We help build knowledge and systems that work for your business or organisation, creating the foundation for high-performing teams and a positive work culture.

Incorporated Societies Expertise

Since 2024, IGS has become one of New Zealand’s leading providers of governance support for incorporated societies navigating the Incorporated Societies Act 2022. We’ve helped societies across the country achieve compliance, draft fit-for-purpose constitutions, and build governance frameworks that go beyond the minimum requirements.

In partnership with Dacreed, we developed Compliance Inc — an all-in-one compliance platform designed specifically for NZ incorporated societies. And as active NFP governors ourselves, we bring firsthand understanding of the challenges volunteer committees face.

Let’s talk about how we can help strengthen your governance.
