Nature for Boards: Driving commercial success in the nature-positive transition

Sign up for this event

The integration of nature into corporate governance is not just a moral or ethical imperative; it is a strategic necessity for ongoing business success.

By understanding and managing nature-related risks and opportunities at the board level, and by adopting future-facing governance practices, companies can protect their bottom lines, respond to growing regulatory and market expectations, and contribute to a more resilient business, economy and society. The challenge is significant, but the commercial opportunities for those who respond appropriately are substantial.

In collaboration with Pollination, this webinar will explore the critical role of board leadership in integrating and investing in nature and provide practical guidance for directors to act on now. We will be joined by a panel of experts who will share their insights and answer your questions on this crucial topic.

This webinar follows the recent launch of Nature for Boards: A primer, published by Pollination, Chapter Zero and Korn Ferry.
