John Wilcox, Chairman Emeritus at Morrow Sodali, is one of the most recognized and respected figures in corporate governance in the world. In his book, The Evolution of Corporate Governance, he provides a real-time picture of how governance evolved over the years through a collection of essays and articles he has written during his distinguished career.
In this podcast, John and Paul Washington, Executive Director of The Conference Board ESG Center, discuss the past, present, and future of corporate governance, including John’s suggestions for companies in tackling some of the most pressing issues boards face today, such as creating an annual “Director’s Discussion & Analysis”; restricting corporate political spending; establishing a separate HCM board committee; recognizing the alignment between shareholders’ and stakeholders’ interests; and taking a holistic approach to corporate communication that goes beyond legal compliance.
