Register here.
Corporate boards are busier than ever, and governance arrangements continue to adapt to meet expanding expectations. After a brisk review of the duties and protections applicable to directors, Lawrence Cunningham (Presiding Director, Weinberg Center for Corporate Governance) will provide a streamlined overview of the governance structures boards commonly use to manage their responsibilities. Topics include:
- the role of principal standing committees—audit, compensation, and nominating and governance;
- the importance of independent directors;
The session will also address practical considerations in
- recruiting and renewing boards, including the role of diversity and specialized skills such as cyber and AI expertise,
- director succession planning and board refreshment, and
- structuring director compensation.
We hope you will join us for breakfast and networking after the session.
