How Courtney is shaping the future with confidence
“We live in an era of geopolitical volatility and uncertainty. I help companies to separate the signal from the noise today and to anticipate the risks that are coming around the corner.
I also help leaders develop more strategic approaches to managing political and geopolitical risk. With the right geostrategy systems in place, companies will be better equipped to navigate geopolitical volatility – no matter what specific events occur in the coming years.
This helps to improve resilience and enable organizations to generate long-term value for all stakeholders.”
