Basics beyond buzz or backlash
Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) are increasingly shaping organisational risk, reputation, and long-term sustainability. But beyond the headlines and shifting public sentiment, what does this mean for governance? This session provides senior leaders and board members with a high-level, strategic view of DEI - focusing on its implications for organisational oversight, risk management, and stakeholder trust. Participants will explore the broader macro environment, understand the rationale for DEI in today’s climate, and gain clarity on how to position their organisation in a way that is both principled and pragmatic.
Discussion themes
- Examine DEI as a governance and risk consideration rather than an operational initiative.
- Identify global DEI trends and their potential impact on corporate reputation and stakeholder expectations.
- Understand the concept of social license and how organisations gain - or lose - public trust.
- Clarify the strategic rationale for DEI, even in high-performing organisations.
- Differentiate between meaningful cultural transformation and symbolic or reactionary responses.
