How Courtney is building a better working world
“We live in an era of geopolitical volatility and uncertainty. I help companies to understand the political risks that they face today and to anticipate the risks that are coming around the corner.
I also help leaders develop more strategic approaches to managing political risk. With the right geostrategy systems in place, companies will be better equipped to navigate geopolitical volatility – no matter what specific events occur in the coming years.
This contributes to a better working world by improving business resilience and generating long-term value for all stakeholders.”
