Governance across borders – A Corporate Governance Podcast
Governance across borders and cultures – the latest episode of the Corporate Governance Podcast focuses on priorities when running a company spanning multiple borders and cultures. It’s a must for your corporate governance education.
Governance across borders and structures
Join your host, Dan Byrne, and experienced CEO and governance expert Stefan Steinhardt to find out the ins and outs of governing a modern European company.
Europe is a close economic bloc, but its corporate cultures, regulations and politics differ as soon as you cross one of its many internal borders. Still, companies will often operate across them all. The trick is to know how to handle each jurisdiction properly.
Dan and Stefan will discuss the importance of finding out the local customs and rules in any country you’re operating in. They’ll also analyse why communication is such a crucial task when it comes to operating across borders.
If you’re on the board of a European company, this podcast will help unpack the complexities of decision-making in an area that functions as a single economy but fragments with many practical differences along the way.
About our guest
Stefan Steinhardt is an experienced CEO and corporate governance expert who has worked for SGS, the market leader in the Testing, Inspection, and Certification industry, as well as family-owned and private equity finance companies in the same area.
Stefan is a graduate of CGI’s diploma in Corporate Governance. He’s based in the German capital Berlin, but his governance and managerial career has seen him working in many member states of the European Union and beyond its borders.

Corporate governance education
The Corporate Governance Podcast is your taster of what’s new in governance worldwide. The modern director understands that boardroom responsibilities have dramatically increased, and old norms are being challenged by new ideals around sustainable business that respect all stakeholders – not just shareholders.
Because of this, corporate governance education is an invaluable addition to a director’s skillset—something that will help you stand out amongst your colleagues.
CGI offers dedicated diplomas in both corporate governance and ESG – as well as numerous other certificates focusing on the areas of governance you’re passionate about.
They’re delivered entirely online, and self-paced – meaning you can learn and study at a rate that suits you.
