Board Dynamics Under Pressure: When Good Boards Make Bad Decisions

Description

This webinar examines how behavioural dynamics, time pressure, groupthink, and cognitive biases can lead even highly capable boards to make poor decisions. Drawing on real-world examples, it explores how stress, personality dynamics, hierarchy, and flawed information flows distort judgement. Delegates will gain practical tools to improve decision-making quality, encourage constructive challenge, and create conditions that help boards maintain clarity and objectivity during moments of pressure or crisis.

This webinar provides one-hour of CPD and offers insights and updates from a leading industry-expert speaker. 

Delegates places are interchangeable with colleagues from the same organisation.
