Time to farewell 2020

Overview

Whilst 2020 has been dominated by covid-19, directors have still faced other governance issues including cyber security and privacy, climate-change impacts, board leadership and resilience, and how to govern with purpose. 

Join our end of year event and hear from IoD chief executive Kirsten Patterson on how boards and organisations are adapting to rapid change and what issues will shape governance in the future.
