This panel will explore the emerging issues corporate boards are facing. This innovative program, presented by the National Association of Corporate Directors, will feature independent, non-executive directors of private and Fortune 500 companies. We will discover how the board is grappling with hot issues such as succession planning, board and management dynamics, strategy, performance, risk oversight, shareholder activism, innovation, and competitive disruption. The panelists will provide advice on how the general counsel's office can equip the board to stay ahead of the curve and provide effective oversight with the most cutting-edge governance practices.
