How Responsible & Responsive Are You in Strategic Risk Management?

In today’s rapidly volatile world, boards are facing increasing pressure to make complex business decisions to address the multiple emerging risks and stakeholders’ expectations almost always at speed and without all the necessary facts and figures.

As board chairman, your role in steering your board and organisation through the current challenging business landscape has never been more critical. This session will focus on the evolving terrain of strategic risk management, with a particular emphasis on emerging risks related to risk capital and human capital – the two pillars that directly impact your organisation’s ability to grow and thrive.

Join us as we explore how you as board chairman, the captain of the ship, can be better equipped with the information required to shape business decisions for the better, ensuring your organisation’s long-term resilience and success.
