ABOUT THE EVENT<br />
The role of governance, risk and compliance professionals is chang<strong>in</strong>g<br />
and evolv<strong>in</strong>g all the time. Sometimes, this key professional discipl<strong>in</strong>e<br />
can be misunderstood with<strong>in</strong> an organisation, so it is essential that<br />
the GRC professional has a solid understand<strong>in</strong>g of all the bus<strong>in</strong>ess<br />
operations <strong>in</strong> order to clearly articulate their value to stakeholders.<br />
Leaders <strong>in</strong> this context require a strategic m<strong>in</strong>dset and well-balanced<br />
set of technical and people skills and knowledge. In order to take the<br />
next step <strong>in</strong> your career, it is vital to develop a robust leadership skill<br />
set <strong>in</strong> addition to a solid technical foundation <strong>in</strong> risk, governance and<br />
compliance.<br />
While the number of women choos<strong>in</strong>g governance, risk and<br />
compliance as a career is ris<strong>in</strong>g, the top roles are still dom<strong>in</strong>ated by<br />
men. Progress is be<strong>in</strong>g made <strong>in</strong> many organisations however, with rich<br />
opportunities for emerg<strong>in</strong>g and aspir<strong>in</strong>g women leaders with the right<br />
skills to step up <strong>in</strong>to senior leadership.<br />
<strong>Women</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>Governance</strong>, <strong>Risk</strong> & <strong>Compliance</strong> <strong>Leadership</strong> <strong>Summit</strong><br />
<strong>2017</strong> unpacks the skills, strategies and confidence required to step<br />
<strong>in</strong>to these top executive roles. This two-day conference will deliver<br />
<strong>in</strong>spirational stories from top leaders, tips and advice on how to<br />
develop your skills, and a forum for network<strong>in</strong>g and ideas shar<strong>in</strong>g.<br />
Through a comb<strong>in</strong>ation of case studies, and experiential skills sessions,<br />
participants will leave the summit with the knowledge, guidance and<br />
techniques to take back to the workplace and enhance their leadership<br />
effectiveness.<br />
