With control of Congress in play, the 2026 U.S. midterms could reshape the political and regulatory landscape for business.   In this episode of Teneo Insights, host Kevin Kajiwara is joined by @TGowdySC, former U.S. Representative (R-SC), and @joekennedy, former U.S. Representative (D-MA) and U.S. Special Envoy to Northern Ireland for Economic Affairs, for a bipartisan look at what comes next.   From the races that could determine the House and Senate to the prospect of a contentious lame-duck session, they examine how a new Congress may use its oversight powers — and what corporate leaders should be preparing for now.   Watch the full conversation: hubs.li/Q04BXnm70   #TeneoInsights #USPolitics #Midterms #Leadership

Boards can't add a specialist for every new issue that reaches the boardroom. Watch Teneo Vice Chair and Head of Governance and Sustainability Advisory Martha Carter discuss why boards are increasingly looking for “utility players” — directors who bring depth in a particular area, but also the judgment and range to contribute across the full board agenda. As the demands on boards continue to expand, our latest Board of Directors report finds that the individual board seat is getting bigger, with directors expected to engage credibly across issues including technology, AI, geopolitics, supply chain and risk.

The UK remains an attractive destination for global capital, but the investment case is under pressure. Teneo’s latest Persuasion with Precision report finds a growing disconnect between what investment decision-makers say matters to them and what policymakers believe drives their decisions — with tax rises topping investors’ list of threats to UK investment.   Based on research with 100 senior investment decision-makers and 100 UK MPs, the report explores where perceptions diverge and what it will take to strengthen the UK’s investment proposition in an increasingly competitive global market.  ​   Read the full report: hubs.li/Q04Bwwvn0   #UKInvestment #GlobalCapital #Investment

The demands on boards are growing – but board size is not keeping pace. Watch Senior Managing Director Amanda Grant break down one of the key findings from our board of directors report and what it means for directors across the U.S., UK and Canada. As agendas expand and expectations rise, individual directors are being asked to absorb more of the workload and bring a broader range of expertise. Fewer directors are also serving on multiple boards than they did a decade ago. Read the full report: hubs.li/Q04BgbsN0 #CorporateGovernance #GoverningWhatsNext #Leadership
