BoardReady Institute (BRI) Webinar: A Timely Discussion on The NACD Blue Ribbon Commission’s Report Fit for the Future: An Urgent Imperative for Board Leadership
NACD’s most recent Blue-Ribbon Commission Report, Fit for the Future: An Urgent Imperative for Board Leadership explores major, accelerating business trends and their implications for board oversight, and recommends specific actions board leaders can take in collaboration with their fellow directors—on board structure, engagement, composition, culture, and disclosures—to position their boards for the future. Its findings are even more relevant now in light of the coronavirus pandemic and its unprecedented impact across all aspects of life and business. How are boards assessing and limiting risk? How can boards plan to remain fit for the future while mitigating for uncertainty when nothing is normal?
This session will engage participants in practical ways boards can elicit changes essential to keeping the board focused and forward looking in today’s most turbulent business cycle, and as aspiring directors, understand the increasing role you will undertake toward that end. Join us and learn the following:
- Tips on how aspiring directors can better prepare for the growing and changing demands that will be placed on boards as a result of COVID-19 and its far-reaching global impact.
- How to engage current and future strategic and risk needs for a new business landscape
- How to navigate your director role in these new dynamics while fostering an inclusive board culture.
