DECLASSIFICATION OF CORPORATE DIRECTORS: ADDRESSING THE REAL CONCERNS AFFECTING STOCKHOLDERS
Download This ArticleDarlene M. Andert
Abstract
The future will provide the lesson about the effects of Board declassification. Yet, without question, declassification does degrade the synergy needed to build learning and decision-making symmetry, and it makes these part-time professionals, a temporary and potentially short-term member of a decision-making community. As a poison pill, this strategy remains questionable. Clearly, the alchemy of providing excellent oversight that generates great business outcomes is not the mandate of declassification. Declassification is a re-structuring strategy only. Real alchemy comes from a great deal of knowledge,, and sprinkle of luck, but remains unlinked to potentially changing the seats in the chairs after each election. Perhaps corporate governance restructuring should begin to address the real problem, which is positioning Directors to be knowledgeable, accountable, and ethical fiduciaries.
