About the course
The collapse of Enron in the noughties provided the driving force for the development of strong corporate governance principles. More recently, however, a seemingly endless succession of corporate scandals, from Carillion to Wirecard, Greensill to Patisserie Valerie continue to focus the world's attention on the impact of poor corporate governance.
Using real world examples and case studies throughout, Lisa Weaver's course blends theoretical underpinnings with practical advice on creating efficient and effective management structures that minimise risk.
