Trustees
We draw on the support and advice of an extraordinary network of global business leaders who volunteer their time, knowledge, and insights to further the mission of The Conference Board: to help our Members anticipate what’s ahead, improve their performance, and better serve society. Founded in 1916, The Conference Board is the member-driven think tank that delivers Trusted Insights for What’s Ahead®.
Our board of trustees is composed of a select group of business leaders who dedicate themselves to overseeing the activities and initiatives of The Conference Board. Their function compares to the board of directors of a for-profit company.
