Resilient Boards Network

Resilient Boards Network

Engaging non-executive directors across key markets to strengthen board leadership for resilience, competitiveness and long-term value creation. 

Strengthening board-level governance on climate and nature for resilience and long-term value creation

Corporate boards operate in a rapidly evolving landscape, with profound implications for competitiveness, resilience and long-term value creation.

The World Economic Forum, in partnership with the Chapter Zero Alliance, supports boards in navigating this complexity by providing the tools, insights and principles needed to strengthen boardroom judgement, foresight and governance capabilities.  

Board Leadership for Growth and Resilience

As climate and nature increasingly shape markets, investment and competitiveness, effective board governance is essential—not only to manage risk, but to seize the opportunities of the transition and strengthen long-term business performance.

Outcomes and outputs

The Resilient Boards Network provides boards with insights to help accelerate resilient, sustainable growth within their organizations and across the global economy. This is achieved through three key outcomes:

Cutting-edge insights

Create insights and translate knowledge into actionable guidance that strengthens boardroom judgement and foresight, to navigate interconnected risks and opportunities and support resilience and long-term value creation. 

Better Boardroom Judgement

Provide a platform for cross-industry peer perspectives and shared boardroom experience that enables boards to navigate complex issues, dilemmas, and trade-offs effectively.

Foresight & Strategic Positioning

Help boards stay ahead of regulatory, investor and market developments, enabling earlier and more strategic responses. As well as highlight good corporate practices to shape the future of corporate governance, based on the World Economic Forum’s Guiding Principles for Climate and Nature Governance.
