In a time when trust in institutions is eroding, and decision-making is driven more by metrics than meaning, the call to restore values at the heart of organisations is not just ethical—it’s strategic. In this session, the speaker will present a bold and timely case: what if institutions were evaluated not only by their return on investment (ROI), but by their Return on Values (ROV)?

Drawing from practice within higher education, this session opens a wider conversation for business, philanthropy, and public institutions alike: how do we redesign organisational cultures, incentive structures, and performance indicators to be anchored in values such as integrity, equity, compassion, and stewardship?

The session will unpack how polycrisis can be transformed into poly-opportunities in a post-pandemic, polycrisis world, where values-aligned institutions are not only more trusted but also more adaptive, resilient, and future-fit.
