Join Lindsay Hooper, CEO of the University of Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership (CISL), and Paul Gilding, CISL Fellow and author, for a 30-minute executive briefing and 30-minute live Q&A on why this is a defining moment for corporate leadership.
This webinar follows the publication of CISL’s Competing in the Age of Disruption, authored by Lindsay and Paul, which sets out a pathway for the private sector to proactively respond to the current volatile geopolitical context while continuing sustainability efforts.
