What Makes a Great Board

A Forum for Nominating/Governance Committee Members

Corporate Board Member magazine and the nationally recognized executive search firm Heidrick & Struggles present an event specifically designed for nominating/governance committee members on the boards of public companies to interact and exchange valuable information with their peers.

This forum will bring together committee chairs and members from some of the country’s most well known companies. The event will include thought-provoking general sessions on several key issues that all nominating/governance committee members face in their quest for a “good governance” board culture: succession planning for CEOs and senior management, board evaluations, board recruitment, and board compensation.

In addition, the day’s activities will feature unique Peer Collaboration sessions, in which participants will be split into groups of 10 nominating/governance committee members from similarly sized companies. These small group Peer Collaborations will provide a unique opportunity for in-depth discussion of critical issues and problem-solving solutions for your boards(s).
