This session is part of the PowerTalk Series, themed "Positive Agenda: Leadership in Covid-Exit".
Before Covid-19, ASEAN was on track to become the fourth-largest economy in the world by 2030. The pandemic has caused prolonged socio-economic disruptions in the region, exposing fundamental weaknesses and vulnerabilities in various sectors.
It is therefore vital to have good governance to strengthen ASEAN’s solidarity and unity, and the region must now prioritise several key actions to ensure sustainable and resilient growth, forging deeper collaborations, expanding connectivity, and investing in a sustainable future to ensure a positive Covid-exit.
A convergence of good CG practices will be key to the cohesiveness and responsiveness of the region towards this crisis and beyond. Corporate boards in Asia must accelerate their move towards stronger collective board leadership, greater diversity, more active engagements with key stakeholders, and advocate for an environment of continuous improvement through evaluation and development initiatives.
