Join Danielle Duell, Founder and CEO of People With Purpose, for a practical webinar exploring how purposeful leaders translate

 “why we exist” into the strategic choices, operating rhythms and cultural signals that shape an organisation.

Purpose-led enterprises require a different kind of leadership. Purposeful leaders make different trade-offs, allocate resources differently and communicate with greater clarity about what matters. They must also hold the line on purpose when short-term pressures make the easier path appear more attractive.

Message from our Patron, Professor Mervyn King

Over the last three decades I have been privileged to chair the Eminent Persons Group at the United Nations on Governance and Oversight, the Global Reporting Initiative, the International Integrated Reporting Council (now part of the IFRS Foundation), the Integrated Reporting Committee of South Africa and the King Committee on Corporate Governance. I have also sat on corporate governance advisory boards in the Far East and at the World Bank.

I record the above not out of self-praise but to indicate that because of my international appointments I have associations with universities, business schools, professional bodies and others around the world. It is these associations which I have voluntarily given to the GGA to act as a catalyst to share governance and business science matters of extreme public interest on a collaborative basis.
