Today's breakneck business pace, changing economic conditions, variable capital markets, and increasing demands for corporate accountability are driving the board's role in corporate governance on to center stage.
These new requirements dictate that boards become more involved, knowledgeable, and proactive. In this ISS-accredited program, you will improve your understanding of the responsibilities of board membership and gain the skills and strategies needed to become a more effective director. Through cases and simulations, you will learn techniques to respond to internal and external pressures, as well as a framework to manage the crises that can confront today's corporations.
