RESEARCH & WHITEPAPERS

Corporate Board Member conducts survey-based research throughout the year to gather firsthand accounts from public company board members on shifting boardroom strategy discussions and processes. We also offer a timely look into boardroom sentiment with our Director Confidence Index, a monthly flash poll of board members on the economy and top-of-mind issues.

FEATURED ANNUAL REPORT

What Directors Think

Every year, Corporate Board Member surveys U.S. public company board members to take their pulse on the issues that are most prominent in the boardroom for the year to come and the strategies companies are implementing to overcome the biggest challenges ahead. 

How Today's Boards are Transforming for Tomorrow

Boards find themselves operating in an era of near-perpetual volatility and uncertainty. Waves of change have swept boardrooms in the past, but usually in the aftermath of major corporate crises and new regulatory requirements. This time, however, is different. As boards face new pressures and new tasks, many are taking a more proactive approach to change the way they get work done.

The Race to Digitalization

Earlier this year, Microsoft’s acquisition of OpenAI search capabilities sent Code Red alerts at reigning digital giant Google, signaling that no company is safe from disruption. While for many companies, the technology remains too nascent—and precarious—to adopt, the attention these capabilities are getting is a clear indicator that the risk of disruption is intensifying for everyone, across all industries.

Retention Strategies in Healthcare

Few industries have been hit harder by the Great Resignation than healthcare—and little wonder. The added pressure only served to accelerate the rising turnover rates that many healthcare organizations have been struggling with for some time.

Navigating the Current Talent Environment

Market volatility, the war for talent, inflation pressures and the increasing focus on ESG issues have led compensation committees to reevaluate the effectiveness of their executive compensation programs in the current environment.
