The annual general meeting of shareholders (AGM) is a key corporate event for companies not only to approve their yearly numbers and elect their boards but also to engage with their shareholders to understand their expectations and concerns. Proxy season is when all shareholders can use their vote to express support or discontentment with the company's strategy and its management.
Are you and your board taking advantage of this opportunity to proactively and positively engage with your shareholders? Are you and your fellow board members prepared to discuss the hot topics of the upcoming proxy season, such as compensation, climate change and diversity? How involved should you be in the preparation and AGM process of your company and how should you go about it?
These are some of the key questions we will be exploring in our discussion. We hope you will join us for this interesting discussion. Please use the button below to register for this webinar.
