On November 20 and 21 Directors & Boards is convening a select group of top public company board members, institutional shareholders, proxy advisors, judicial and governmental representatives and corporate governance thought leaders to discuss the changing character of the modern corporation.
The forum, to be held at The Metropolitan Club in New York City, will explore the âThe Character of the Corporation,â the core values and convictions that are etched into a companyâs DNA. Character can animate a companyâs social commitments, environmental responsibilities and moral consciousness. We will focus on whether corporations can and should attempt to balance corporate profit and social purpose by embracing environmental, social and governance principles (ESG).
