Board members are part-time overseers of full-time managers, so they often lack current, complete insight into the company's operations, finances and dangers. This board risk oversight webinar shows directors how to close that gap.
Most internal controls are designed for finance, compliance and legal staff, not for the board. You'll learn how to structure the board and its committees for effective risk oversight, where hidden dangers are most often found and which internal risks directors must watch.
The session also covers key risk indicators, risks from employees, systems, partners and suppliers, anti-corruption laws, IT risk and how to shape reporting and controls so the board gets the information it needs when it needs it.
Financial crises, scandals, pandemics and black swan events have caught many companies off guard. Independent directors spend little time inside the company, management has reasons to reassure them, and the information they see is often stale or hard to follow. Directors who miss warning signs may later have to explain why.
The session suits corporate, nonprofit, private and family firm board members, corporate secretaries, corporate counsel, and venture capital and private equity partners.
