Is your board creating value or destroying it? 

Boards are more engaged than ever. In our annual 2022 Board Effectiveness Survey, 63% of board members said their board was more collaborative in the past 12 months. 

For all these advantages of board engagement, a more active board can create friction between the board and the day-to-day operations. Boards need a new roadmap for when to lead, partner, or stay out of the way.

Join us May 12th, at 2 PM ET for a discussion between Ram Charan, author of the best-selling Boards that Lead, and Paroon Chadha, co-founder and CEO of OnBoard, as they discuss the shared leadership of boards and executives.  

In this session, Ram and Paroon will discuss: 

  • Succession planning 
  • Recruiting directors that add value 
  • Rooting out board dysfunction 
  • Setting a high bar on ethics and risk 
  • Taking boards from monitors to leaders
