GBS has the potential to be a game-changer for enterprise-wide transformation—but only if it has a voice at the highest level. Too often, GBS is seen as a cost center rather than a strategic enabler. Without board-level representation, its ability to influence key decisions and drive business impact is limited. In this interactive peer-led session, you take center stage. Instead of passively listening, you’ll actively craft, refine, and test your own boardroom pitch for why GBS deserves a seat at the table.

·       Step into the boardroom: You will take turns delivering their pitch, simulating a real-life scenario where they must convince executives of GBS’s value

·       Live feedback: Participants and moderators will provide instant feedback, helping refine and sharpen each pitch

·       Tackle objections: You’ll explore common executive pushbacks and practice overcoming them with compelling data and narratives

·       Walk away ready: By the end, you’ll have an executive-ready pitch that you can confidently deliver to your leadership team
