As businesses face relentless market challenges, technological transformations, leadership misconduct, and geopolitical whiplash, Boards of Directors play a vital role in providing the kind of ethical leadership that will help organizations build value and manage risk. And yet, those same pressures also expose the thin ethical oversight that many Boards provide—mainly because they lack practical ways to promote culture, conduct, and trust as core business values.

In response, Boards of the Future—a U.S.-based nonprofit advancing ethical leadership and integrity at the highest levels of corporate power—has released How Boards Should Oversee Ethics, a guide that distills ten concrete practices to help boards bring ethics into the center of strategy, risk, and performance conversations.

In this episode, Boards of the Future Executive Director, Vera Cherepanova speaks to the distinct practices that can help Boards be better drivers of ethical business culture.
