Building a Resilient Business in an Age of Disruption, COPENHAGEN

In today’s fast-changing business environment, organisations face growing complexity — from climate risk and geopolitical uncertainty to increasing regulatory and stakeholder expectations. To succeed, Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) must evolve beyond compliance and align closely with corporate strategy, resilience, and sustainability.

Workiva is inviting Michael Rasmussen to Copenhagen, an internationally recognised thought leader and pioneer in GRC with more than 30 years of experience in enterprise GRC strategy, processes, and the information and technology architectures that support them. In this exclusive workshop, Michael will share practical insights on how integrated GRC and sustainability strategies can support long-term value creation.

Building on the principles of effective governance and control, the session will explore how adaptive GRC frameworks can turn risk into opportunity and resilience into a competitive advantage. The workshop will also examine the role of GRC in supporting CSRD-ready reportingand preparing organisations for Limited Assurance, giving boards greater confidence in the effectiveness of risk management and internal control systems.

What you’ll learn

• How to integrate risk, resilience, and sustainability into a unified governance model
• How adaptive GRC strategies strengthen organisational resilience
• How to deliver the level of assurance boards and stakeholders expect

This workshop is ideal for GRC professionals, CROs, Sustainability Leaders, Internal Auditors, and executives focused on future-proofing their organisation.
