The Covid outbreak forced companies to address employee health and safety like never before. Now boards have to ensure management is embedding those protocols, so we’re ready for the next one.
Directors must first get past the naiveté of believing that systemic racism and injustice does not exist in their companies. Then they must ask what management will do to change the narrative.
The emergence of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) will separate weak businesses from strong ones – and gives board members an unprecedented opportunity to assess management teams.
Catastrophes are avoided when the board puts safety on the agenda, sets the right expectation with management and ensures that the company culture is reinforcing it.
A people-centric culture can foster world-class performance—and directors have a lot more influence over that than they might think.
