Trust Under Pressure: Navigating Board - CEO Dynamics in Challenging Circumstances

Please join us for a conversation about sustaining trust and clarity between the Board Chair and CEO during contested or high-visibility moments, from stakeholder activism to public controversies. This session is designed for both profit and not-for-profit directors and will provide key takeaways on how to build a strong, resilient Board-Chair/CEO relationship, foster effective Board decision-making, and constructively manage stakeholder engagement. Speakers will unpack governance boundaries, crisis decision frameworks, and which issues may be most appropriate for direct bilateral direction between the Board Chair and CEO.
