With the UK Corporate Governance Code placing greater demands on boards for oversight, accountability, and long-term value creation, this session will explore the critical role boards play in strategic stewardship. It will examine how robust board dynamics – such as leadership behaviours, diversity, and committee structures – can improve both governance and business outcomes, boosting investor confidence, and positioning the organisation for sustainable success.
- Topics to be discussed:
- Evolving board responsibilities in light of the new UK Corporate Governance Code;
- The importance of diversity and capability building in boards;
- Specialised committees (audit, risk, sustainability) and their role in governance;
- How boards can move from process-based compliance to value-based oversight.
