About This Webinar
Corporate governance has become a lived discipline, tested daily in boardrooms, shareholder meetings, state-owned entities, digital transformation projects and moments of organisational crisis.
Join the Good Governance Academy for a timely conversation with Ramani Naidoo, author of the newly released 4th edition of Corporate Governance – An Essential Guide for Companies. This session will explore how governance practice is evolving in South Africa and globally, and why directors, executives, company secretaries and governance professionals need practical clarity in an increasingly complex environment.
The discussion will also feature Lionel Moyal, contributor to the book’s chapters on technology and AI governance, who will bring a focused perspective on responsible digital transformation, artificial intelligence and the governance questions boards must now confront.
Why this Matters
Boards and leadership teams are facing a governance environment shaped by legal reform, stakeholder expectations, digital disruption, ESG demands, cybersecurity risk, artificial intelligence and the continued lessons of corporate failure.
This webinar will unpack how modern governance can move beyond box-ticking and become a practical tool for judgement, accountability and ethical leadership.
Key Discussion Areas
- What has changed in the 4th edition of Corporate Governance – An Essential Guide for Companies
- How South African governance practice fits within a wider global context
