The Role of the Board in a Crisis
When organisations face turbulence, boards must act decisively to steer recovery and safeguard stakeholder confidence. This session will explore the role of directors in anticipating and dealing with crises, and the strategies boards can adopt to manage crises effectively while maintaining momentum in key strategic areas.
Session Focus:
- The critical skills and mindset of a director in a crisis
- Practical frameworks for crisis response and organisational resilience.
- How boards can balance short-term survival with long-term strategic focus.
- Building a proactive culture to anticipate and mitigate future risks.
Guests are invited to join us in-person in our Sydney office followed by networking drinks. The 60-minute presentation will also be live streamed online.
As The Dynamic Board Series sessions apply the Chatham House Rule, this webinar will not be recorded and will not be available to view at a later date.
