.entry-img img{ display:none !important; } .single .hentry .entry-img{ display:none !important; } In this thought-provoking episode of The GrowCFO Show, Kevin Appleby engages with Patrick Dunne , an experienced Chair and Board Member in both business and social enterprise sectors, to explore the evolving landscape of risk management at the board level. The conversation examines how traditional approaches to risk governance may no longer be sufficient in today's complex business environment, where non-financial risks increasingly dominate the risk landscape. Patrick Dunne, recently awarded an OBE for his services to philanthropy in Africa and the UK, shares insights from his viral LinkedIn article suggesting that the conventional audit and risk committee structure requires fundamental rethinking. The discussion challenges finance leaders to consider whether their current risk management frameworks are adequately equipped to address emerging threats, particularly those stemming from geopolitical instability, technological disruption, and social change.
