Over two half-days on 27th and 28th September, Russell Reynolds Associates will host our virtual Asia Pacific Board Leadership Forum to explore critical topics impacting leadership on boards in the new era. Come together with expert practitioners and thought leaders from across Asia Pacific to explore the thinking behind world-class board leadership and how governance practices are evolving in tandem with the trends facing directors today. We will discover how boards across the region are leading through this unprecedented era of changes and experience a spirit of sharing amongst boards across the region that collectively elevates the organizations in the region on board leadership and governance.

Here's what to expect:
  • Plenary sessions with an outstanding line-up of speakers and panelists
  • Gain access to new insights, surveys and thought leadership pieces on Corporate Governance and Board Leadership
  • Live Q&A sessions where we go in-depth into various topics on corporate governance

Topics of discussion:

Activism and the Board

We are not ready for the rise of activist investors in Asia. What can we do to best prepare our boards?

Board' Role in CEO Succession

A CEO succession is the single highest-risk, unsupported decision a Board has to make. How do boards make sure they get it right?

Director Independence across APAC

There is ever increasing scrutiny and importance on the role of independent directors on boards. How do boards ensure substance over form to elevate the impact of its independent directors?

Board's Role in Leading Diversity

Diversity should not be limited to what we look like, but what we believe. What are we doing to deliberately engineer difference in viewpoints and opinions?

Culture, Reputation and the Board's Responsibility for it

Has the Board’s accountability for culture gone too far? Should responsibility for culture stay with the CEO and management?

Sustainable Leadership and ESG on the Board

How does a board deliberately factor ESG into every decision they make? What is the Board’s role in ensuring a future sustainable organisation?
