CEO Panel: Making the Call When There’s No Playbook

Join CEO leaders as they share their lessons from navigating major crises, restructures, or controversies, and what grounded their leadership during these difficult moments.

• How to lead decisively when visibility is low and pressure is high

• Balancing stakeholder demands, values, and performance under fire

• Reflections on what they’d do differently and what they stand by
