Canada’s operating environment has changed. Governing bodies cannot control geopolitical uncertainty, changing trade relationships, economic disruption or technological change – but they can govern how prepared their organizations are to respond.

Using one of the most significant Canadian headlines of the year as the starting point, this session will move the discussion from the national conversation to the boardroom: What does this changing environment require of Canadian governing bodies?

Join us to find out what this changing environment means for your board!

Boards devote significant attention to strategy, finance, cybersecurity, talent, and enterprise risk. Yet one of the most critical drivers of organizational resilience often receives surprisingly little attention in the boardroom: critical infrastructure.

Whether you serve on the board of a hospital, manufacturer, educational institution, condominium corporation, utility, or public sector organization, your organization's ability to deliver its mission depends on reliable infrastructure.

Join us as we explore why infrastructure is emerging as a governance issue – not simply an operational one – and what every board should be asking.
