The Board's Reliance on Corporate Counsel
Webcast CLE available
Jun 1, 2009
1 PM ET
The corporate counsel is uniquely positioned to provide (and is responsible for providing) the board with support. This webcast will explore the role of corporate counsel in:
- Verifying that processes are in place to assist in identifying issues and information for board attention
- Engaging the board and management in a discussion of expectations about how, when, and in what circumstances information will be provided
- Developing questions that the “Persuasive Counselor” should ensure that the directors ask themselves about strategy and risk.
- “Recalibrating Board Thinking” - Counsel must see to it that boards recalibrate their thinking in decision-making and oversight to deal with what may have become a “crisis norm.”
