Join a panel of leading governance experts and sitting directors to discuss hot issues affecting corporate boards today, including: How boardrooms have evolved in the past decade, specifically with regard to the spotlight on the boardroom, director skills disclosure enhancements, and shareholder activism; the compliance, competition, risk management, and innovative disruption issues that keep board members up at night; building and maintaining a strategic asset board; and finding and vetting potential board members (i.e., the impact of recruiting less experienced board members, common pitfalls if a company lacks a rigorous board vetting practice, etc.) diversity in board composition (i.e., what is meant by “diversity,” will there be mandatory requirements like those in europe, etc.). Board refreshment and tenure, and evaluations (i.e., term limits, the role of board evaluations, other tools used to roll board members off for non-performance, etc.). Ethical issues in the current environment and failures in oversight.
