The Center for Systems Management Board oversees corporate governance, while planning and operations are delegated to the Executive Office by means of CSM governing values, goals, and policies. CSM personnel behavior is guided by the principles set forth in the corporate values and policies.

We recognize the importance of distinguishing board roles from those of operating management. Effective governance through objectives and policies, including the board's self-governance, relies on the related experience and skills of the people who develop and implement those policies.
