About the Event
Strapped in a back brace and wheelchair after previously suffering a spinal injury on stage, Gloria Gaynor recorded the solo vocals of her song, “I Will Survive,” almost 50 years ago — a rendition that the U.S. Library of Congress later added to the National Recording Registry alongside Gustav Mahler’s “Symphony No. 9.” As with artists, so with companies — resiliency is becoming an existential need. And CTOs/CIOs are telling us there is a palpable gathering of forces, distinctly outside management control, which could be more damaging than merely upending innovation strategies. Although the Great Financial Recession resulted in a strengthening of the science and practice of risk within banks, asset management firms, and regulatory agencies, Chief Risk Officer roles are a rarity in companies that populate the physical industries, where effective risk monitoring and response is no less crucial. As stewards of the company’s long-term future, CTOs/CIOs will likely need to take on this responsibility. In this Lux Executive Roundtable, we discuss how to perceive, learn, and act on the global stage of threats.
This invitation-only opportunity offers:
- Exclusive gathering to tackle big challenges in innovation-related decision making — complimentary for Lux clients.
- Invitation-only event for C-level leaders within large, global companies in adjacent industries.
- Peer-group learning, contributing, and networking around critical leadership issues.
- Confidential, safe space for CTOs, CIOs, CSOs, and CEOs to engage in open, intellectual dialogue — guided by Lux and molded by the leaders in the Roundtable.
- Actionable takeaways, including frameworks and follow-on conversations.
