Anti-corruption is not only a compliance issue, it is fundamentally a governance issue.

In the next session of the Taking the Helm webinar series, Hosted by by Professor Mervyn E. King, we will explore the critical role of the chairman and board in setting the tone for integrity, strengthening oversight, and ensuring organisations approach corruption risk with clarity and accountability.

This session will explore:
• The board’s role in shaping an ethical culture
• Governance oversight in addressing corruption risk
• How leadership at the top influences organisational integrity

Date and Time: 19 March 2026, 10:00am SAST

Join the conversation and gain valuable perspective on the responsibilities of board leadership in today’s governance landscape.

How mature is your governance?

Strong governance doesn’t happen by chance — it can be measured, assessed, and improved.

Join Carolynn Chalmers, editor of the ISO 37004 Governance Maturity Model, for a practical webinar exploring how organisations and boards can evaluate their governance maturity and identify areas for improvement.

This session will introduce a structured approach to governance assessment and show how the ISO 37004 framework helps organisations move from governance principles to measurable performance.

We’re pleased to share that Carolynn Chalmers will be joining the upcoming webinar, “Walking the Talk of Sustainability.”

This session will explore what it really takes to integrate sustainability into strategy, leadership, governance, and organisational performance — beyond reporting and into real accountability.

Carolynn will be contributing insights on board oversight, governance responsibility, and the practical realities of embedding sustainability at the highest level of decision-making.

If you’re a board member, executive, or sustainability professional serious about moving from intention to implementation, this is a conversation worth joining.
