You are invited to the 23rd Annual Corporate Governance Conference hosted by the Institute for Excellence in Corporate Governance!

Don’t miss this opportunity to be inspired by Kristin Kaufman, Founder of Alignment, Inc., and our featured speaker for the 2025 Max Hopper Leadership Series at the Annual Conference!

 

Kristin will bring us a message rooted in the concept of alignment—a principle she’s passionate about and one that offers transformational power to organizations seeking to operate at their most effective level. Her insights support our institute's Stakeholder IQ governance model, which emphasizes:

 

1.    A collaborative board-management co-governance structure

2.    A performance-driven system grounded in core values

3.    The strategic use of AI to empower governance professionals

 

Kristin’s perspective will challenge your thinking and equip you with tools to foster stronger alignment and to achieve your corporate goals with greater clarity and impact.

 

This Max Hopper Leadership Series presentation will kick off a full day of corporate governance programming. Other topics will include governance issues faced by organizations operating in a private capital environment, including Employee Stock Ownership Plans, family office investments, and private equity portfolio firms and sponsors, plus overall corporate governance topics applicable to public, private, and non-profit organizations.

 

If you're a corporate leader, whether a board member, a senior executive, an investor, or in another role where you are incented to drive meaningful change and elevate your organization’s performance, this is a conference you can’t afford to miss!

 

Secure your spot now and be part of the conversation shaping the future of leadership and corporate governance.
