Role, Responsibilities, and Process for the Compensation Committee

As executive compensation has steadily increased since the early 1990s, so has scrutiny of pay and the number of compensation standards intended to contain the growth of pay. Dodd-Frank’s imposition of Say-on-Pay in 2011 has been followed up with a host of disclosure rules culminating in the “Pay-vs-Performance” requirement implemented in 2022 and the enhanced ‘Clawback’ rule in 2023. The spotlight on Compensation Committees has not dimmed. Regulations and policies are proliferating from both the formal regulators at the SEC and the proxy advisory firms that serve as informal regulators of corporate governance. Through all these changes, Committees have had to retain their focus on the principal function of the Board, which is to support value creation at the companies they oversee.

In this program, we cover what directors need to know to be an effective Compensation Committee Member or Chair, including:

Beyond the basics, will cover select topics such as:

Expect an intense exploration of Compensation Committee details along with time to interact with other top-tier Board candidates, public company Board faculty, and Compensation/Governance expert faculty.

Cyber Crime for Board Directors

Security breaches can turn calm work environments into high-stress battle zones. Informed board directors, equipped to understand threats and take appropriate precautions, play a crucial role. They must also navigate AI's disruptive potential, managing strategic risks and opportunities while ensuring compliance and safeguarding stakeholder relationships. This preparedness allows for smart and swift decision-making during cyber attacks.

This course is designed to educate board directors about cybercrime, incident response, and the impact emerging technology and AI is having on business. Participants will learn about key risks, methods for managing risk, and how to enable business in a safe and secure way without sacrificing time to market. We will review scenarios based on real-world intrusions by a sophisticated attacker, examining tactics and technologies from both the attacker’s and victim’s perspectives. The scenarios will illustrate the most common methods attackers use to establish a foothold and remain undetected in the victim’s network.

The course also covers the pros and cons of follow-up actions available to the victim and provides critical insight into the many issues investigators and victim organizations face when defending networks and responding to security breaches.

This is a highly interactive course with public company directors and high-quality attendees who are either on boards or likely to land on boards. It is designed with relationship building in mind, not merely networking. 

Learning Objectives

After completing this course, directors should be able to:

• Understand how attackers defeat defenses and compromise networks

• Oversee and build AI literacy to help safeguard the company

• Explore the most common network defense posture assumed by victims

• Collect electronic evidence

• Understand how investigators analyze data and use findings to resolve incidents

• Grasp the challenges an organization faces after its computer security defenses are breached

• Understand the full process of cyber incident response through an active simulation with audience participation

Approved Attendees Only: If you wish to learn more or apply to participate in this program, apply at ceotrust.org/apply. If you register here, you will still be subject to screening, and fees will be returned if denied entrance.
