CGIC National CPD Webinar
Strategy and Risk Management for Boards in Challenging Times
The global pandemic, the virtual workplace, the Great Resignation – with all of these issues impacting the workforce and the way we do business, how can Boards shift their thoughts, processes, and even structure to support management during these challenging times? We’ll look at some of the innovative approaches that BCLC is taking to implement new policies and strategic initiatives, as well as manage risk, during a time of accelerated change. In particular, we’ll touch on practical steps that governance professionals can recommend to their Boards to improve Board-Management relations and facilitate good decision-making.
