This is essential viewing for anyone in a governance, leadership, assurance or strategy role in a large organisation – corporate or government. This presentation is particularly timely given current conditions, increasing market turbulence, and the move by stock exchanges and regulators around the world who are beginning to expect CEOs and Boards to have a strong understanding of ‘material business risk’, and hence strategic risk.

There is also a lot of great material on the resilientfutures.org website and their Youtube channel.  If you are interested in understanding the future, complexity and the challenges and opportunities arising from this, these sites are well worth a look. Enjoy. TDA
