When the stakes are high, global conflicts are ongoing, uncertainty is rising and AI disruption is accelerating, what does responsible leadership really look like?

In this episode of @ImpactLegacywithRania , 𝗥𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗮 𝗕𝗲𝗷𝗷𝗮𝗻𝗶 | Global Board and Executive Advisor. Mentor. International Speaker and former three times Chief Audit & Risk Executive, welcomes 𝗗𝗿 𝗦𝗶𝗹𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗮 𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗮 Director of the Office of Internal Oversight at the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) in The Hague, Netherlands.

Together, they explore what responsible leadership demands in a world shaped by geopolitical instability, technological disruption and growing institutional pressure. Drawing on their international leadership experience across the public and private sectors, Rania and Silvina explore:

• Why integrity matters most when pressure and urgency rise

• How leaders can navigate crisis with clarity and humanity

• Why Audit, Risk, Compliance and Oversight must work shoulder to shoulder with management

• What independence really means

• Why a seat at the table is not enough without influence and a credible voice

• How AI and technology are reshaping Internal Audit, oversight and governance • Why Audit and Risk must move beyond reporting the past to helping shape what happens next.

Recorded just a few weeks ago, while escalating global conflict and uncertainty were still unfolding in spring 2026, this is a timely reflection on leadership, humanity, strategic influence and the responsibility to create impact when organisations and societies need it most.
