In Brief: The 2020 Governance Outlook: Projections on Emerging Board Matters is NACD’s third publication in this annual report series, providing corporate directors and senior executives with a comprehensive, forward-looking overview of major business and governance issues that are likely to require board focus over the coming year.

Highlight critical business risks that may impact company strategy.
Evaluate boardroom practices around composition, succession, and recruitment.
Discuss the material impact of water risk on their business or industry.
Anticipate and prepare for possible changes in the regulatory landscape.
