In this episode of Governance Watch, Gavin Hinks speaks with sustainability and boardroom expert Helle Bank Jorgensen about how corporate governance must evolve to meet today’s complex challenges. As boards face growing pressure to embed sustainability, respond to geopolitical uncertainty, and prepare for systemic risks, Hella argues that courageous stewardship, continuous learning, and a shift from oversight to foresight are essential. Drawing on insights from the Board Intelligence Board Value Index and her work with the World Economic Forum, she highlights the need for boards to move beyond box-ticking and embrace a proactive, purpose-led approach to value creation.
