Building board resilience in volatility and the role of non-executive board members

Resilience is a critical element for the sustainability of an organisation.  Governing bodies and executives have been tasked with responding to several challenges and many changes in the past several years and with continued reforms in the sector. Board resilience has never been more important as providers begin to recover and plan for the future.

 

This episode will explore how boards can build resilience both for the governing body members and for the provider more broadly. It will also discuss the critical role that non-executive members play in building up that board resilience and maintaining it in the face of volatility and change.
