This year’s forum will address “Aligning Company Directors and Management to Enhance Superior Growth.” Attendees will gain insights from keynote speaker Hal Shear, president of Board Assets, Inc., as he discusses how to select and maintain an effective Board of Directors based on career experience, advisory ability, and key contacts they can bring to the board. How much does a strong board of directors really matter to a growth-oriented company?
