Governance

Our corporate governance principles govern how we do business daily, enabling us to outperform and lead the way to sustainable growth. They provide a framework that defines the roles, rights, and responsibilities of different groups within the organization, the Board’s role in risk oversight, public policy engagement, and 3M’s commitment to the environment and society.

3M believes that good corporate governance practices serve the long-term interests of stockholders, strengthen the Board and management, and further enhance the public trust 3M has earned from more than a century of operating with uncompromising integrity and doing business the right way.
