The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated far-reaching impacts on business and society around the world. Governance is one of the major challenges faced by corporate executives today. Changes in society, increased regulations, pressure from activist shareholders, new business models, globalization, and shifting economic headwinds all contribute to making it more difficult for boards to respond effectively with the right corporate governance practices.
VCCircle brings a comprehensive Hybrid Masterclass on Measurable Corporate Governance to facilitate effective, entrepreneurial, and prudent management that can deliver the company's long-term success.
The Board Leadership Masterclass is developed in close collaboration with leading chairs and key players from the top of the Indian corporate world. The curriculum is built around challenging situations facing the chairman and the board, presented through case stories based on real-life events.

Innovation is the tool of leaders to create opportunities! In this day of ever-accelerating change, organizations that value and promote innovation succeed and thrive.
Innovation happens in a collaborative manner, where people are talking to each other on a perpetual basis as opposed to remaining in functional silos. The entire organizational culture should be open, transparent, empowering, and risk-taking.
Let's try to decode the key ingredient in the journey to success, something that several leaders have learnt the hard way, is ‘constant innovation’

In his work with companies including GE, Bank of America, Novartis, Verizon, Aditya Birla Group, Tata Group, Max Group, Yildiz Holdings, UST Global, Fast Retailing (Uniqlo), Longfor and two of the four largest digital companies in China, he is known for cutting through the complexity of running a business in today’s fast changing envi-ronment to uncover the core business problem. His real-world solutions, shared with millions through his books and articles in top business publications, have been praised for being practical, relevant and highly actionable — the kind of advice you can use Monday morning.

Ram has coached more than a dozen leaders who went on to become CEOs, and has served on the boards of Hindalco in India, Emaar, Austin Industries, Tyco Electronics, and Fischer and Porter. His newest book, Talent Wins, co-authored with Dominic Barton and Dennis Carey (Harvard Business Review Press, March 2018), is a guide to radically rethinking the management of talent, because human capability is the ultimate determinant of a company’s success. Especially in this digital age.
Ram has authored over 25 books since 1998 that have sold over 2 million copies in more than a dozen languages. Three of his books were Wall Street Journal bestsellers, including Execution, which he co-authored with former Honeywell CEO Larry Bossidy in 2002, which spent more than 150 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list. He also has written for publications includ-ing Harvard Business Review, Fortune, BusinessWeek, Time, Chief Executive and USA TODAY.
