As the regulatory landscape grows more complex, how can corporate boards balance compliance with effective strategic oversight? In this episode of Be It Resolved, host Rahul Bhardwaj, President and CEO of the Institute of Corporate Directors, sits down with Jonathan
Goodman. He is a Vice Chair and member of the board of Deloitte Canada, where he leads the firm’s CEO and Boardroom programs, including Deloitte Canada’s Podium Club for Directors. He is also Global Chair and former global Managing Partner of Monitor Deloitte. Jonathan brings a wealth of experience at the intersection of strategy, governance, and CEO leadership. Together, they discuss how compliance culture is shaping boardroom decision-making. From setting strong compliance frameworks without stifling strategy to navigating the fine line between prudence and paralysis, this podcast covers the challenges and opportunities facing today’s boards. Are increased compliance pressures distracting directors from their core mandate? And if so, what is the antidote?

Be it resolved that a strict focus on compliance limits board effectiveness.
