Our Tool
The Performance
Governance System
Our tool, the Performance Governance System (PGS), is a holistic and collaborative framework for designing and executing roadmaps for long-term reform.
The PGS culls global best practices in managing strategy to meet the rising needs of Philippine public sector institutions. It builds governance reform capacities across a four-stage pathway, and addresses a wide array of challenges while also yielding niche impact.
Please add a button to this section too that leads to the “PGS” page. You may also use “Learn More” as the text of the button.
Our Work
Training & Capacity-Building
We organize training and capacity-building events that aim to strengthen the competencies of public sector individuals in PGS implementation. Through ISA's various events, participants can gain knowledge, build practical skills, share best practices, and celebrate wins in public sector reform.

Build capacities as a governance practitioner and strengthen the implementation of the Performance Governance System (PGS) in the public institution.

Exchange best practices with fellow PGS practitioners to bring forth new learning and inspire other public institutions to achieve more.
