New Governance Challenges for Board Members in Europe
30/31 March 2011, Brussels
‘Are you a board
member of a company that is active across
Europe?”’
ecoDa has developed a European module for directors and supervisory board members
seeking to gain a European perspective on board functioning and corporate governance.
The training programme is targeted at directors with a cross-border mandate in their
board activities. Anyone seeking to update their knowledge of recent EU policy developments
in the field of corporate governance will also benefit from the module.
ecoDa’s programme promotes the Europeanization of the boardroom. It allows
participants to benchmark their own board and governance practices with those of similar
companies in other European countries. It offers an expert briefing on significant policy
issues in European corporate governance (including regulatory developments).
Throughout the module, participants are provided with the information and
know-how that will be essential in fulfilling a cross-border board mandate.
‘The potential impact of director training on board behavior and director
professionalism cannot be underestimated. It is no less important than
efforts to establish an effective regulatory framework for boards through
corporate governance codes and other legislative measures. Director
training should be given a high priority in efforts to improve the overall
performance and legitimacy of corporate governance.’
