We all want peace of mind that our organisation’s culture is driving the right behaviours in terms of risk and reputation, in supporting strategy delivery and strengthening brand advocacy. Regulators have set their expectation that culture must be effectively assured, but how do you govern culture? How can you be sure whether the culture in the Boardroom reflects the operating culture ‘on the ground’? 

Pecan have developed a Leading Culture from the Boardroom Masterclass centred around their 4-D framework. In this 1-hour taster we will explore the best practice and common pitfalls of: 

• Setting clear cultural Direction 
• Insightful Data needed to gain assurance 
• Board Dynamics needed to have the right conversations about culture 
• Deliberate actions to take when needed
