Vera Cherepanova, Executive Director of the nonprofit Boards of the Future, sheds light on the crucial intersection of board governance and compliance. She reveals that many boards underestimate culture as a core risk, falling short of their responsibilities in today's regulated environment. Discussion reveals how events are forcing boards to engage deeply with compliance issues, especially in light of supply chain challenges and regionalization. Vera advocates for greater inclusion of compliance experts on boards to enhance ethical decision-making and navigate non-financial risks effectively.
