The License to Operate and Leadership Expectations in a New World
The concepts around a company’s social license to operate are not new. Legitimacy, credibility, and trust are the pillars of such social license. Merely following regulatory requirements has been insufficient for a company to gain public support for its operations for some time now. The stakes and expectations continue to rise. As confidence remains low in governments and the media to establish a trusted voice across society, more people look to businesses and their leadership to fill the void. The Chief Legal Officer is in a unique position of influence at the intersection of acute regulatory knowledge and a seat at the table when the business strategy is shaped. This panel discusses the pressures and the opportunities they are seeing internally and externally to meet an increasingly complex set of expectations across diverse stakeholders.
