SUMMARY:Generalists vs. Specialists: Striking the Right Balance on Today’s Boards
DESCRIPTION:Assembling an effective board remains imperative, yet the right composition can be tricky to achieve. Should directors be chosen primarily for broad business judgment or for deep expertise? Directors with backgrounds in areas like cybersecurity, financial reporting, technology, human capital, and industry-specific knowledge are on the rise. Our panel of directors and thought-leaders will explore the evolving balance between generalists and specialists in board composition. They will discuss why good business judgment remains foundational, and how deep expertise in directors can sometimes cause unintended pressures, while also adding real value. One size does not fit all — the optimal mix often varies between public and private companies, start-ups and seasoned organizations, and sectors as different as biotech and consumer products. As board expectations expand and professional specialization grows, getting the balance right has never been more important.\nREGISTRATION LINKS:\nCorporate and Strategic Partner members >\nIndividual members and non-members >\n\nCOST:\nCDF Members: FREE\nCorporate Members: FREE (4)\nFCD Members: FREE\nNon-Members: $85\nACCREDITATION:\nAll participants may receive 1 hour of MCLE and CPE education credit.
