The reading materials for this week focused on how boards of directors are looking toward the future and considering changes in their culture, membership and structure.

Questions

What types of changes do you believe will enable the board and the company to best improve performance and meet the challenges of the future? For example, should a board focus solely on its culture? Or is the most important change the addition of directors with different skill sets? 

What about restructuring the board to add new committees? 

What about diversity? Anything else? Please explain your answer fully, using information supporting your response from this week's reading material or any other source you deem appropriate.

 

Your response should be no more than two pages in length, double-spaced, using a standard 12-point font.
