SUMMARY:Chairing Through a Crisis - Peer Learnings
DESCRIPTION:A confidential\, peer-to-peer discussion specifically for Board Chairs\, sharing learnings from Chairing through a crisis. \nInvariably\, our community will experience crisis situations. \nThis session provides a safe environment for chairs to share experiences of crisis situations\, how they were handled\, as well as what steps can be put in place pre-emptively to avoid situations escalating at board level or future challenges developing. We will discuss crucial learning for board members and board chairs. Particularly as no two situations will be the same\, hearing from others helps inform other scenarios and supports our proactive chair community. \nTo Attend: \nPlease register to attend. \nNEDonBoard members who meet the roundtable criteria are prioritised and attendance is limited as this is a small peer group discussion\, allowing for interactive participation.

SUMMARY:Cambridge: Board Community Networking Series (cyber themed)
DESCRIPTION:Building and maintaining a board level network is an important component of developing a non-executive director portfolio. This informal meet is a great opportunity to reconnect with your NED peers and establish new board level connections. Many NED appointments still originate through word of mouth; and as business and governance evolve\, discussing current boardroom themes with fellow board members provides a path to continued growth. \nGiven the impact of cyber attacks within the current business environment\, the theme of this session will be cyber resilience with latest board relevant insights from experts at law firm Mills & Reeve\, followed by facilitated NED group discussions\, and board level networking. \nSpeaker: Helen Tringham is a partner at Mills & Reeve and a specialist in contentious data protection and cyber‑attack response. She advises organisations of all sizes on managing high‑stakes cyber incidents\, including personal data breaches\, cyber claims\, and regulatory investigations. Helen is experienced in handling UK GDPR disputes\, contentious subject access requests\, and misuse of private information claims. She has supported clients through major cyber‑attacks\, protecting reputations by coordinating responses across multiple jurisdictions and engaging effectively with various regulators. \nThis session is open to NEDonBoard members based in Cambridge and the surrounding area\, and you must register (‘+’ ticket) to attend. \n
