• TK Kerstetter

In this episode of Inside America's Boardrooms, Paula Loop, Leader of PwC’s Governance Insights Center, identifies the top strategic and governance challenges boards will face in the coming year.

2017 has certainly been an action-packed year in the world of corporate governance. Shareholders flexed their voting power muscle, while company reputations were colored by various cyber breaches or reputational crises. With new issues on the horizon—think CEO pay ratio, ESG, and digital transformation—2018 is shaping up to be an equally demanding year for corporate boards.

In this episode, we invite back Paula Loop, Leader of PwC’s Governance Insights Center, to identify and discuss the top strategic and governance challenges that boards will face in the coming year.
