Key Findings from PwC’s 2018 Annual Corporate Directors Survey
In this webinar, a panel of sitting board members and representatives from BlackRock and AFL-CIO will discuss key findings from PwC’s 2018 Annual Corporate Directors Survey (research report publishing this fall). Key discussion points will include:
- Corporate Culture: What do investors believe is the board’s role in overseeing or even influencing culture?
- Social Responsibility & ESG: How is communication and information-sharing between management teams, boards, and investors currently falling short?
- Cyber Risk: In what ways are cyber risk discussions evolving to include ethical data use or business model disruption?
- Refreshment: Last year, 46% of directors said someone on their board should be replaced. What will the 2018 data reveal? What should boards be prepared to disclose or discuss when engaging with investors?
