Corporate Governance for Boards and Directors
A practical course for new and serving directors and the senior managers who work with boards, built around the G20/OECD Principles of Corporate Governance. Learn what the board is for, the duties directors owe, how independence and the audit, nomination and remuneration committees work, how to treat shareholders fairly and disclose honestly, and how to make a board effective. It teaches principles and common international practice; company law and governance codes differ by country, so local rules must always be checked.
