COBIT 2019 APO01.02: APO01.02 Communicate management objectives, direction and decisions made

Stakeholders across the enterprise are made aware of, and helped to understand, the alignment goals and the I&T objectives, and significant decisions about I&T, with what they mean for the enterprise, are communicated at regular intervals. Enough skilled resources support the communication process. Ground rules for communication are set from identified needs and cover communication downward, upward and across the organisation. I&T objectives and direction are communicated continuously, with executives visibly backing them in deeds and words through every channel. The content covers the mission, service objectives, internal controls, quality, the code of ethics and conduct, policies, procedures, roles, responsibilities and related outcomes.
