Roundtable dinner discussion: Wednesday 3 November 2021, 7pm for 7.30pm to 9.30pm

Resilience First is pleased to invite our business leaders to a private roundtable dinner discussion to explore the leadership skills required to lead a successful climate resilience strategy across your business and sector.

Businesses around the world are recognising the urgent issue of climate change and the importance to protect communities, lands and habitats at most risk of threat by adopting sustainable strategies and giving back where possible.

Despite this, IPCC’s latest report presented a ‘code red’ for humanity, as not enough is being done in a timely manner to make a difference.

Through this dinner, our guest speaker, Lieutenant General (Retd) Richard Nugee CB CVO CBE, will lead a discussion on what actions and key skills are required by business leaders to drive more rapid and effective change. 

Guest speakers:

Lieutenant General (Retd) Richard E Nugee CB CVO CBE, Climate Change and Sustainability Non-Executive Director, MoD and Chair, NAAFI

Joseph Sczurko, Executive President Consulting, Wood

 

Kindly hosted by Wood plc.
