EVENT - ISABELLE GROSMAÎTRE HOSTED THE BOARD MEMBERS PROGRAM AT CHANGE NOW 2024
We are all conscious about the pivotal role of Boards.
But change is never easy.
For the very first time at ChangeNOW, we hosted a specialized program for Board Members, featuring some of the most inspiring and visionary leaders.
This first edition gathered 150 Board Members from around the world, all united in their determination to drive meaningful change in the world.
Today more than ever, we are at a crossroads where actions speak louder than words.
Conscious leaders are becoming a movement. Yet 70% of Board Members do not feel efficient when integrating sustainability into their business strategies and governance. (BCG-INSEAD-Report March 22)
What a journey !
This shift is everyone’s responsibility. Some insights from incredible stories and invaluable perspectives:
• It starts by who sits at the table. The Board composition and its diversity is what matters the most.
• Citizens are not living in your office. Being curious, upskill yourself, go on the field, meet stakeholders beyond shareholders.
• Shifting your mindset by integrating sustainability at the heart of strategy: from a regulatory necessity into a driver of long-term value creation.
• Now, it’s time to walk the talk. Aligning words and actions. Nothing will happen without courageous leaders.
As we are entering a new era when it comes to governance and leadership, let this gathering be a catalyst for Board Members and leaders to embrace their role as architects of change.
WITH ACTIONS COME HOPE
