How should boards respond appropriately when a CEO's conduct raises concerns?
One of the board’s most important responsibilities is overseeing the CEO. While performance management is well established, governing CEO conduct can be far more complex.
How should boards respond when concerns arise about a CEO’s behaviour? What responsibilities do directors and chairs have when conduct issues create risks to organisational culture, reputation, stakeholder trust or long-term performance?
Join Herman Visagie MInstD, General Manager of the IoD’s Governance Leadership Centre, in conversation with Sarah von Dadelszen MInstD for an engaging discussion on one of governance’s most challenging issues. Drawing on his experience as a governance advisor, company secretary, executive leader and director, Herman will explore why CEO conduct is a governance issue, how it influences culture and organisational performance, practical ways to identify and address concerns before they escalate, and what these issues mean for directors.
Given the potentially sensitive nature of the discussion, the Chatham House Rule will apply.
This event is sponsored by PwC Napier.
