In this episode Arun Sudhaman is joined by Carolyn Devanayagam, head of Weber Advisory for Asia-Pacific and managing director, Singapore at Weber Shandwick. They discuss how geopolitical shifts — from tariff regimes to political rhetoric — are reshaping corporate communications, forcing CEOs and comms teams to take public positions and manage complex stakeholder demands.Devanayagam argues this environment is simultaneously a risk and an opportunity for Asian brands: those that combine operational strength with cultural humility and purpose can own a seat at the global table.
