Being a Board Member During a War: Challenges and Solutions
October 23, 2024
Impact Boards EM collaborated with Women on Boards Ukraine to discuss this extremely relevant and important topic. During our online roundtable, our panellists discussed the challenges that Boards and businesses are facing in Ukraine due to the ongoing war, along with stories of resilience, experiences of navigating difficulties and maintaining strength through such unprecedented conditions.
Managing war risks is critical for Board Directors to ensure the resilience and sustainability of their organisations. Boards need to proactively address various challenges and risks – from scenario planning and business continuity to managing stakeholder communication, employee safety and regulatory compliance – to help their companies navigate the complexities of war risks effectively.
