Director Exchange Greenville: Boardroom Offense & Defense: Responding to Shareholder Challenges

In-Person |  September 23, 2026 |  12:00 PM - 2:00 PM |  Greenville, SC

Join us for lunch, conversation and connection as fellow board members Melinda Davis Lux, and Margaret Jenkins  lead a discussion on  board governance and shareholder challenges.

    

Strong public company governance requires directors to excel both in proactively overseeing the company and responding when the company comes under pressure. This session explores leading practices for board oversight that strengthen governance, help create long-term shareholder value, and position companies to navigate risks. It also examines the Board's role when confronted with shareholder challenges, such as proxy contests and activist campaigns.

 

The session highlights that high-performing boards that adhere to strong governance and oversight practices are better positioned to thoughtfully and effectively navigate risks and challenges when they arise and to achieve better outcomes for companies and stakeholders.
