BC Connect - When Doing Good Becomes a Risk…

For whom?: participation is by invitation only. For information about registration please contact office@boardcompanions.nl.

Non-profit organizations exist to create social value. Yet a strong mission, deep commitment and the pressure to deliver can also lead to blind spots with serious consequences. When does a risk genuinely serve the mission, and when are “courage” or “pragmatism” simply irresponsible?

In this interactive BC Connect webinar, Marlène Jans will explore the dilemmas that boards, supervisory directors and board advisers face when governing risk in mission-driven organizations.

Together, we will discuss compelling questions such as:

• Why are non-profit organizations so vulnerable for irresponsible (risk) management and fraud?

• Which risks are specific to non-profits, but easily overlooked when commercial risk-management frameworks are applied?
