## Resource

Today's episode tackles a challenge facing boardrooms right now: the intersection of geopolitics and corporate governance. For decades, companies followed a playbook built on global integration and efficiency. But now that playbook is being rewritten by trade wars, sanctions, and supply chain disruptions.So how do boards navigate a landscape where geopolitical risk is the new normal, and where every decision reverberates across shifting borders, markets, and social expectations?At a recent live event, Host Curt Nickisch sits down with: Ruth Aguilera, Brodsky Trustee Professor in Corporate Governance at Northeastern University; Kevin McGovern, President of the New England chapter of the National Association of Corporate Directors; and Roy Shapira, Professor of Law at Reichman University and visiting fellow at the Ravi K. Mehrotra Institute for Business Markets and Society. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
