2021 Directors’ alert

For many boards of directors, 2020 has been the year in which their world was fundamentally transformed. Traditional topics of conversation like profits, margins, and cost structure are making room for more far reaching ones, like workplace health and safety, how to respond to the pandemic, the search for social and racial justice and climate change. Given limited time and resources, how are directors responding to all this?

The 2021 Directors’ alert series features a series of articles and interviews with some of the most thoughtful directors representing a diverse range of industries and sectors.

In this first edition, Deloitte Directors’ alert: A new era of board stewardship begins, these global non-executives share their thoughts on how the time is now to address climate change in the boardroom, the impact of the pandemic in business strategy and the role digitalisation and innovation will play in the recovery process—and more.
