The United States presidential election marks a year that is rife with lasting economic tensions. Precision becomes board critical, as directors face exacting investor, consumer and regulatory scrutiny. In order to lead with a firm vision, boards are also expected to identify and appoint the best leaders to hold a seat at the table.
Beyond corporate performance, boards must also show leadership in climate change mitigation and responsible social governance. This last year has shown that brand trust begins in the boardroom, highlighting the importance of diligence and care in the face of public adversity, from cybersecurity breaches to severe failures in risk oversight.
How should boards strike a balance between business continuity and digital transformation? Will technology play a key role in inspiring investor confidence? How should boards navigate geopolitical nuances while maintaining corporate priorities on track?
Join us on the 12th and 13th of June at the Harvard Club of New York City to convene with leading board directors and discuss the very latest governance agenda.
This event is held for sitting board directors only, event proceedings will follow the Chatham House Rule.
