Governing the Grey Zone: Leading Through Legal Ambiguity and Regulatory Drift
 

In today's volatile regulatory and geopolitical environment, leaders are increasingly required to make decisions in the absence of clear rules. The "grey zone" has become the new normal: where laws evolve faster than interpretation, and global compliance expectations collide with local realities. In this landscape, leadership is not just about risk avoidance but about strategic foresight, balancing agility, governance, and ethical responsibility. Executives must learn to lead with confidence even when the playbook is unwritten, navigating ambiguity without compromising integrity or commercial momentum.


This session, featuring Mrs. Lia Alizia, Principal of Alizia & Partners and Board Member of British Chamber (BritCham) Indonesia, will bring a rare practitioner's view from the frontlines of corporate law, governance, and high-stakes negotiations. Through her decades of experience advising multinational and national corporations, Mrs. Lia will share how legal clarity and business pragmatism can coexist to drive sustainable growth. The discussion will equip C-level executives with actionable insights on managing uncertainty, maintaining compliance credibility, and transforming regulatory challenges into strategic advantages in an increasingly complex business ecosystem.
