Curtis Ravenel – Special Advisor, FSB Task Force on Climate – related Financial Disclosures, Former Global Head, Sustainable Business & Finance at Bloomberg LP
“I was impressed by the material prepared for the sessions of Competent Boards. Relevant and exceptionally well presented, I can see the benefits of board members by getting certified by Competent Boards and enhancing their effectiveness in the oversight of risk as well as advising on the opportunities that environmental and climate creates for companies.”
Mary Francia – Partner, Board Practice, Odgers Berndtson
“As a contributor, I’m glad to see the positive impact it has. The gathering of world leaders in Davos will further speed up the request for leaders who understand and take action on climate, ESG, stakeholder engagement, and the other topics covered by the Competent Boards Certificate Program.”
