NACD Northwest – Hot Button Compensation and Governance Issues Roundtable

Join Farient Advisors and the NACD Northwest Chapter on January 28th for an intimate roundtable luncheon to address the good, the bad, and the ugly of 2020. The roundtable will highlight findings from Farient Advisors and the Global Governance and Executive Compensation Group‘s (GECN) hot off the press “2019 Global Trends in Corporate Governance: Seven Lessons from Engaged Investors.”

Some of the issues that will be discussed include:

• What companies are doing to ensure the board is independent, diverse in skill sets and gender, and providing active oversight
• Why investors and proxy advisors consider executive compensation a window into the boardroom and what this means in terms of goal setting, performance metrics, pay for performance, and overall pay levels
• How investors evaluate human capital management and link talent to compensation (from succession planning to the right skill sets in the right place at the right time)
