The Modern Board: Corporate Governance in an Era of Change and Risk

In a world where corporate boards face unprecedented scrutiny and rapid change, how are they evolving to meet today’s challenges? In this edition of the Teneo Insights Series, host Kevin Kajiwara sits down with Martha Carter, Vice Chair & Head of Governance Advisory at Teneo, and Jonathan Foster, author of On Board: The Modern Playbook for Corporate Governance, to explore how boardrooms are adapting to new expectations, risks and leadership models. They discuss the evolving board–CEO dynamic, what really happens behind closed doors and how boards assess performance. From CEO succession planning and shareholder disclosures to evolving leadership dynamics, risk mitigation and performance oversight, the conversation dives into how directors can anticipate “over-the-horizon” challenges while steering long-term strategy.
