Webinar - A Crisis Management Blueprint for Covid-19 in the financial industry
The Covid-19 pandemic will give our global community some hard-won lessons on how to handle a crisis that perhaps could not be prevented, but rather be more prepared for. What does the financial industry need to understand in terms of crisis management, and what can be learned from the crisis of 08/09?
Ludo Van Der Heyden, Emeritus Professor Corporate Governance INSEAD and Peter Nathanial, Financial Services Crisis Management Leader and INSEAD Adjunct Professor, will guide us through how to properly manage this crisis, based on their extensive experience of corporate governance and crisis management and a newly released paper on “A Crisis Management Blueprint for COVID-19” https://knowledge.insead.edu/operations/a-crisis-management-blueprint-for-covid-19-13716 . Both speakers are also responsible for INSEADs Directors Banking Programme offered in partnership with the Europe Banking Association.
