December 2025 Board Training Session
Sometimes, the best research happens during face-to-face interactions with board members and top executives of a leading global company.
In December 2025, Gib led a learning session for the full board and leadership team of a Fortune 250 company that is also on Fortune’s Most Admired Companies list. The rich discussion following a climate and energy transition update highlighted the critical moment we are in as companies plan for what we have been calling Spotlight 2030.
The Board Owns Sustainable Growth
The December 2025 issue of The Corporate Board - The Leading Journal of Corporate Governance has an article by Gib titled, “The Board Owns Sustainable Growth.”
The article draws heavily on research Gib conducted for the July 2025 launch of his latest book, “Navigating Sustainable Growth: A Roadmap for Boards and Corporate Leaders.”
Climate and Sustainability for Boards
The Q1-2025 issue of Directors & Boards magazine featured a timely article by Gib titled “Climate and Sustainability for Boards” published in the immediate aftermath of the horrific California wildfires.
The article shares research Gib conducted on behalf of a client to identify global best practices at enhancing board fluency on climate and sustainability issues.

In writing Gib’s book, Navigating Sustainable Growth: A Roadmap for Boards and Corporate Leaders, Gib teamed with climate expert Lucy Carmody to create a section of the book titled The Climate Story.
