In a recent interview with the London Stock Exchange, Tracey Brady, Head of Global Corporate Services at Diligent, shared her insights on the company’s strategic vision and the transformative impact it aims to have on the governance community. Diligent’s mission is clear: to modernise governance and support governance professionals in navigating the ever-evolving landscape of regulations and compliance.
The world of governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) is changing rapidly, and Diligent is at the forefront of this transformation. With 25 years of experience in governance, Tracey Brady is leading the charge.

This vision is not just about keeping up with the latest trends but about fundamentally changing the way governance is practiced. By leveraging advanced tools and platforms, Diligent aims to provide governance professionals with the resources they need to stay ahead of the curve.
At the heart of Diligent’s strategy is the integration of GRC tools. These unified solutions offer a comprehensive view of governance, risk, and compliance, making it easier for professionals to manage their day-to-day tasks. “We are integrating various tools to offer more powerful and integrated solutions,” Tracey explains.

Emphasising the importance of a cohesive approach to GRC, Tracey notes: “It's about bringing governance, risk, and compliance together in a way that not only integrates tools but offers amazing insight analytics and unifies the whole piece. It's an exciting time to be bringing this to our community.”
AI is a critical component of Diligent’s strategic vision. Tracey states; “AI is such a big area. And what we want to do at Diligent is bring AI to people in a safe way, in a way that's integrated appropriately and really transparent to the user.”

By ensuring that AI is used safely and transparently, Diligent is empowering governance professionals to make more informed decisions. AI-driven insights can help identify potential risks, optimise workflows, and provide actionable recommendations, all while maintaining high standards of transparency and accountability.
Diligent is committed to educating the governance community about the benefits of technology. "I see my role as almost a way of getting education out into the governance community, that wider community, and helping them make sense of it all," Tracey shares.

By providing training, resources, and support, Diligent is ensuring that governance professionals are well-equipped to leverage technology effectively. This educational approach is crucial in a field where the pace of change is rapid, and the stakes are high.
2025 is poised to bring significant challenges and opportunities for GRC professionals globally. As regulatory landscapes evolve, the need for effective technology integration and modern governance practices becomes more critical. Diligent is set to play a pivotal role in this transformation, supporting the governance community with a comprehensive platform that enables streamlined processes, enhanced reporting, and better insights.
Diligent One Platform is the only dedicated GRC solution designed to match the rigours of today’s GRC demands, delivering clarity from complexity to assist corporate leaders and GRC professionals.
