There is no instruction manual for a board facing a crisis, but there is a lot we can learn from others and past events.
Join this webcast event held in partnership with Resilient Organisations and QuakeCORE to discuss the recently released research ‘The Board’s Role in a Crisis’.
The discussion will explore the six key themes that emerged from the research interviews with chairs, board members and chief executives who have experienced major crises in the last 10 years.
A panel of directors’ will join the discussion to share their individual insights.
Ample time will be allocated to Q&A with the audience.
