Chapter Zero Switzerland

Tomorrow. The final chapter of our European Boards Growth & Resilience Roadmap series, and perhaps the most important question of all: are European boards ready to step up? Over the past months, we've explored how boards can govern strategy under uncertainty, turn risk into opportunity, and use disclosure as a strategic tool. Tomorrow, we close the loop with the question that underpins everything else: accountability. Europe's competitiveness will be shaped by boards that don't just oversee — but lead. Boards that build the skills, culture and stakeholder relationships needed to translate strategic intent into action. Boards that take ownership of climate, nature and resilience not as a compliance matter, but as the foundation of long-term value creation. This is the moment for European boards to step up, and tomorrow's conversation is one step in the right direction!

🇪🇺 🚀 The boards that will lead Europe's next chapter are those that translate strategic intent into operational action. We are delighted to announce the fourth and final webinar in the European Boards Growth & Resilience Roadmap series: Governing for the Long Term - Board Accountability and the Foundations for Resilience. As climate, nature, and geopolitical dynamics reshape the operating environment, the question for boards is how to build the internal foundations that make oversight meaningful. This closing session explores how boards can strengthen accountability, ensure clear ownership across governance structures, and foster the culture and capabilities that drive long-term resilience. We are honoured to welcome an exceptional line-up of speakers, moderated by Liselotte Hägertz Engstam 🌏♦️ Chair of Boards Impact Forum: 🎙️ Ludo VAN DER HEYDEN — INSEAD Chaired Professor in Corporate Governance | Founding Academic Director, INSEAD Corporate Governance Initiative. One of Europe's most influential thinkers on board governance, Ludo has spent decades translating governance theory into boardroom practice across industries and geographies. 🎙️ Julie Baddeley — Chair of Chapter Zero Alliance, a network of Chapters across more than 70 countries focused on equipping directors to tackle climate change from the boardroom, and Co-founder of the UK Chapter, Chapter Zero. A pioneer of climate governance in the boardroom, Julie has also served on the boards of leading companies in the FTSE 350, across a range of sectors including financial services, retail, manufacturing and food. 🎙️ Virginie Morgon — Founder and Managing Partner, Ardabelle Capital | Former CEO, Eurazeo | Knight of the Legion of Honor.

#LCAW 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐊𝐒𝐇𝐎𝐏 Most board-approved transition plans still treat the company as if it operates in isolation. Yet credibility depends on mapping and addressing external dependencies that determine ongoing resilience to climate and nature shocks: supply chains, policy shifts, finance, technology readiness, infrastructure. Together with Chapter Zero, we are hosting a 3-hour workshop during London Climate Action Week, designed for board-level leaders examining what credible transition strategies genuinely demand.
