There is an inclination to say thatany public institution depicts as an example of poor governance where such institutions should be operated like private sector businesses. This is not equally applicable to all public institutions as there are certain limitations of the delivery peripheries. The private and public sectors are intrinsically different to each other as far as good governance is concerned. However people expect any entity to be operated like a private sector institution irrespective of their product or service domain.

Sri Lanka Foundation (SLF) is expanding its service to a wider mandate as an emerging center for leadership, education and training. Business and Enterprise Development Unit is one of the main arms of SLF which is striving towards establishing fully fledged business and management studies by itself and in collaboration with local and international strategic partners. Corporate planning initiative is becoming the most sought after service from the SLF by many business and government entities. At present more than 10 institutions obtain this service and the SLF is pleased to drive this service to organisations wherever possible as a task of national importance in establishing goodgovernance in these institutions.

As we know any successful organization should steer with a vision, mission and corporate objectives /goals. When an organization is focussing on its desired future with a greater sense of preparedness, they are in a rational position to encounter respective operations. All organizations should be conscious about value design before value administration. One should take their corporate planning seriously to drive the organization to the expected level. SLF assists to revisit the set vision and mission statements of the organization, develop new statements and frame the corporate outline for final deliverables.

SLF is known to be the foremost Adult Education Centre in Sri Lanka, established in 1974 consequent to an Agreement between the SLF and the FES. Today, SLF is on a stronger footing where it is regularized under an Act of Parliament, The Sri Lanka Foundation Law No.31 of 1973. SLF functions autonomously under the purview of the Presidential secretariat of Sri Lanka and is managed by a Board under the chairmanship of Prof. Ranjit Bandara.
