The function of a board of directors is to oversee the activities of a company or organization. They are the overall governance of an organization. This places board members under increased scrutiny from the employees for which they make decisions, their peers, shareholders and regulators.
The leadership at Longnecker & Associates have over 100 years of combined experience working with public, private and not-for-profit organizations on a variety of complex compensation and governance situations. Our consultants conduct personalized, company-specific Board Boot Camps. The goal of the Board Boot Camp is to educate board members at every stage of experience and from every type of organization to reinforce best practices for sustainable impact.
Directors of public companies face the challenge of transparency and ownership, as they are under the watchful lens of regulators and shareholders.
Private company directors face the challenge of proving to be objective and independent. Often in a private company the CEO is a majority shareholder so the board acts as an advisor on many of the key issues.
Nonprofit and Not-for-profit boards face strategic and financial challenges. The responsibility to ensure that organizations are indispensable and effective falls on the shoulders of the boards and the CEOs they hire.
