This opening panel offers a practical “reset” for GCs - a chance to reflect on what genuinely worked over the past year, how the role has evolved, and where to focus next. Panellists will share candid perspectives on the decisions, habits and priorities that delivered the greatest value, and how they are thinking about the year ahead as expectations, scrutiny and pace continue to shift. While grounded in panel discussion, the session is designed to actively involve the room. To anchor reflection in action, attendees will be invited to capture one or two priorities for the year ahead and a clear first step to take. The emphasis is on setting goals that are focused, relevant and measurable, so participants leave with a practical takeaway they can return to well beyond the event.
