85% of directors feel confident in their board. But only 35% feel highly confident addressing specific governance and compliance challenges. Join The Chartered Governance Institute and Diligent on 11 November 2026 for a practical discussion on governance readiness, blind spots and what it takes to close the gap between board confidence and genuine oversight capability.

  • How to identify blind spots across subsidiaries, entities, risk, compliance and audit before they become board-level issues  
  • Why accountability fractures as governance agendas expand across functions and jurisdictions  
  • Practical steps to improve the quality of information reaching the board and strengthen clarity of ownership  
  • Five questions your board should be able to answer about its own governance readiness 

Who should attend:

If you're a company secretary, general counsel, board member or risk and compliance leader working to maintain clear oversight as your governance agenda expands, this session is for you.  

Don't miss out. Join a practical, peer-level discussion on where governance confidence falls short and what leaders can do next.
