What does Measurement really mean in the boardroom? How do effective boards know whether their organization is making progress, achieving its goals, and delivering the outcomes that matter?

Join us as we examine the recent leadership changes at Dye & Durham through a governance lens. The board's decision to replace its CEO – just weeks after public questions about his leadership – raises important governance questions about CEO oversight, board accountability, executive selection, and performance evaluation. Together, we'll explore what happened, why it matters, and what boards and governance professionals can learn from this high-profile case.

We discuss how accountability strengthens governance, supports effective decision-making, and helps boards, directors, and senior leaders fulfill their responsibilities with clarity, transparency, and integrity. We'll share practical insights on building a culture of accountability in the boardroom and across the organization.

What governance lessons can be uncovered in this tale of whistleblowing, accountability, and leadership succession, and what are the practical learnings we can bring back to our own boardrooms?

Join us as we unpack the principle of Authority; how it plays out in your boardroom, and the very real effects it has on the rest of your organization.

In this session, we explored the recent developments at BP's AGM, where shareholders rejected two key resolutions related to governance and climate transparency.
