GEC #Risk2Value NEWS

SEPTEMBER 2018 

#METOO. GOVERNANCE. DIVERSITY. CULTURE.
Dear Friends,

Hello all! 

This month and in honor of the one year anniversary of #MeToo I share a provocatively titled but, I assure you, carefully considered piece written with my good friend, Dante A. Disparte, CEO of the Risk Cooperative, titled "Pale, Male and Stale: Does Board Diversity Matter?" this month's cover story for Risk Management Magazine.

We argue that if the boards of several scandal ridden companies - The Weinstein Company, Wynn Resorts, Uber, Wells Fargo and others - had been substantially more diverse at the time of their scandal, perhaps their existential or strategic scandals would not have been as severe. Take a look  and let me know what you think!  Related and also shared below is a link to my 3-part NACD blogpost on Governance and Culture in which I lay out the context for #MeToo, tools for overseeing corporate culture and how culture and ESG are intimately interrelated. 

I am so proud to share with you the world premier of off-Broadway play The Winning Side by Jim Wallert and the The Epic Theatre Ensemble (my favorite non-profit in the world on whose board I sit). It is a riveting play about the ethical and human dilemmas of the US Government's cold war embrace of brilliant ex-Nazi scientist Wernher Von Braun which has many parallels to current technology ethical dilemmas. I will be giving a post-show chat after the October 7th matinee. If you're in town and want to attend a show anytime through the end of October please contact me.


Other highlights in this month's GEC Risk2Value News are the following:
I look forward to seeing some/many of you at the NACD Global Leader Summit in Washington DC this weekend as well as at Epic Theatre Ensemble's The Winning Side play in NYC in October!

Cheers,

Andrea
