GLOBAL, ORGANIZATION, July 20, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Over sixty IFC Nominee Directors from more than 25 countries recently enrolled in the DCRO Institute Board Members’ Course on Risk^® following the delivery of an introductory session on risk oversight at the Annual IFC Nominee Director Forum held in Washington DC.

DCRO institute Chief Executive Officer David R. Koenig introduced the critical role risk plays in governance. He was joined for this session by fellow Qualified Risk Directors^®, Carol Gray and Tom Brandt, as well as Rebecca Brosnan and Yesim Gura, both Qualified Risk Directors^® who also serve as IFC Nominated Directors to boards in Bangladesh, Turkey, and Bulgaria. They shared their professional experience and perspective on board risk oversight and how the DCRO Institute has helped them better prepare for board discussions and decision-making. The program from which they all graduated provides a comprehensive understanding of the value of a positive governance of risk-taking mindset and its role in becoming an influential board director.

“The Certificate of Risk Governance^® program is a great opportunity for board members to tap into deep knowledge, experience, and wisdom around the positive governance of risk-taking in the boardroom,” said Gura. “I found this program extremely helpful, practical and inspiring for me as a board member. It helped me elevate the discussions around risk in the boardroom to a new level.”

Newly enrolled IFC Nominee Directors will experience a series of 17 peer-led lectures and dozens of practical case study interviews with other board members and leaders – blending instruction and real-world case studies. More than 50 board members, C-suite executives, and leading experts in governance and risk management have contributed to this unique collaborative program, graduates of which earn the Certificate in Risk Governance^®.

Koenig, President and Chief Executive Officer of the DCRO Institute. “The IFC’s focus on bringing sound risk governance practices to their work with the private sector in emerging markets is among the best in the world.
