Overview

As New Zealand’s business sector gears up and repositions to meet new climate change obligations, how will this influence and impact the wider business system you operate in? What are the risks and what are the opportunities, particularly around innovation. Miranda will share her insights, from her experiences collaborating with a number of New Zealand businesses, and discuss the pathway for action, through board leadership.
