Governance & Sustainability for supervisory boards

Inhouse training

The growing duties and obligations for (supervisory) boards in relation to sustainability developments.

In today's rapidly evolving regulatory landscape, enhancing your leadership's capabilities is more crucial than ever. Companies now recognize that their environmental and social impact, along with corporate governance and transparency, are key to long-term sustainability and competitiveness. Consequently, the roles and responsibilities of board members are evolving, requiring a proactive approach to compliance and governance.

Staying ahead means ensuring your (supervisory) board members are fully prepared to navigate this complex legal terrain. Adequate training ensures they understand their roles and responsibilities. Our upskilling modules, led by PwC's sustainability and corporate lawyers, provide market-leading knowledge and guide boards through relevant laws and regulations.
