The Impact of Governance: Pru Bennett

Risky Women Radio

Pru Bennett joins our first podcast of season 3 to discuss the spectrum of ESG and the impact boards can make, how they can proactively manage risk, what they should be asking themselves, and how diversity has changed performance for the better.

Pru is an active participant in the public debate on corporate governance and stewardship and in her current role as Principal at Guerdon Associates, she advises boards of Australian companies on issues covering executive and non-executive director remuneration, investor communications and board related ESG issues.
