It is a fundamental business principle that no organisation can exist and function effectively and profitably without proper leadership, guidance and decision-making structures in place, be it on a strategic or operational level.

Being the fundamental decision-making power of the organisation, the Board has the ultimate responsibility of strategically directing Sanlam Namibia. Board decisions and directives are then transformed into actionable plans by the operational management cadre of the organisation and executed by all employees of the organisation.
