Wits Business School, along with our partners the Good Governance Academy and Chapter Zero Southern Africa, is delighted to invite you to the launch of the biography: The Corporate Revolutionary: Mervyn King’s Life in Law, Business and Governance, written by David Williams.
 
Professor Mervyn King, known worldwide as the guru of corporate governance and sustainability, has transformed the global business landscape. With his belief that professional governance can significantly impact the sustainability trajectory of the planet, King advocated reporting on society and the environment, above and beyond profit.
 
His journey has been enriched by his experience as a judge of the Supreme Court of South Africa and director of several companies listed on the Johannesburg and London Stock Exchanges. He has consulted on legal, business, sustainability, and corporate issues in over 60 countries, and has authored many books on governance, sustainability and reporting, the latest being ‘The Healthy Company’.
 
From pioneering integrated reporting, and recalibrating corporate intent from shareholder primacy to stakeholder inclusivity, King’s legacy continues to guide companies worldwide.
 
Please join us for a very special evening as Mervyn engages in conversation with his biographer, David Williams, on his extraordinary life.

We look forward to hosting you.
