For:Founders and shareholders preparing a governance review

A four-step working method

  1. List entities, jurisdictions and roles without treating informal titles as legal authority.
  2. Collect the latest signed constitutional and shareholder documents with prior versions.
  3. Map each decision to a notice, agenda, attendance record and minutes.
  4. Mark ownership percentages and voting claims as needing verification where evidence is missing.

Common errors to avoid

  • Treating an unsigned draft or an informal title as authority.
  • Treating an empty worksheet field as a confirmed zero or a verified fact. Mark missing information explicitly.
  • Sharing a working brief as a professional conclusion. Keep assumptions and unanswered questions attached.
