About this listen

Corporate governance begins with the board of directors, but designing the “right” board is far more complex than following a standard formula. In this episode, Doug Chia is joined by Steven Byeff and Ning Chiu, partners at Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP. Together, they explore why one-size-fits-all approaches to board design often fall short and what companies should consider instead.


The conversation covers key decision points including board leadership structure, the chair versus CEO debate, director independence, and the often-overlooked importance of multiple leadership roles within the board.
