Imperial operates on a decentralised management system that encourages the acquisition, nurturing and growth of
large and small entrepreneurial business units, and strives to maximise the synergies between them.
The executive committee of the group oversees all operational activities, balancing the need for a strong entrepreneurial culture with sufficient
and appropriate control and governance.
While the group operates according to a federal system, cohesion across businesses and divisions are achieved through nine unifying factors
and eight controlling factors.
