The mandate for Agents of Change is based on insights from the Mindful Exclusion Governance Report, which CSL published in partnership with The Chartered Governance Institute UK&I. The report provides evidence that many boardrooms operate in a bubble and shows the impact of this on decision making. It also reveals specific blind spots in the boardroom - around technology, sustainability, and all issues relating to people - which are of growing concern given the pace and scale with which the three megatrends of AI, climate change, and geopolitics are disrupting the world as we know it.

 

Agents of Change is supported by an advisory of established business leaders and subject matter experts from all over the world. Their roles position them at the coalface of these megatrends, and give them unique insight into how the culture and governance of the business sector is being affected. The initiative provides a platform for advisory members to reflect on their journey as change agents, identify intersectional synergies, and connect with a diverse community of leaders who are committed to driving change.
