Embed governance and responsibility Strong policies, clear ownership, and ethical practices are what protect companies in unpredictable times. Believe beyond financing, incorporate compliance & threat Siloed functions are a luxury companies can no longer manage. This is not about improvement for the future. This is about stabilization for today. If you're navigating these difficulties, I 'd be pleased to exchange perspectives.
