In the throes of this pivotal year that has been and continues to be marked by global elections and shifting geopolitical currents, boardrooms must continue to be dynamic crucibles of strategic decision-making. By the end of 2024, more than 60 nations and over half the world's population will have cast their ballots. As a result, the contours of the geopolitical landscape have already shifted and will continue to do so into the future.

Our fireside chat with Gen. David Petraeus, led by Alan Crain, will delve into the intricate interplay between geopolitical dynamics and corporate governance. Join us for an enlightening discourse on the nexus between the geopolitical landscape and the imperatives of boardroom stewardship. Explore how astute governance strategies can fortify organizations amid the shifting tides of global politics, ensuring timely analysis that supports future readiness and resilience in an era defined by uncertainty.
