As Unionization is Rising, What Do Board Directors Need to Know, Ask and Understand About Unionization

Understanding unionization trends is an aspect of corporate board responsibility: to guide management with long-term business direction with an eye on rapid moving economic conditions and geopolitical activity.* Our panelists represent worker advocacy, management teams, and boards.

They will share:

  • What mutually successful outcomes can look like for corporations, host communities/policy makers, employees and unions alike

  • Director’s oversight responsibilities as companies  respond to unionization trends

  • What questions are important for board directors to be asking

  • What are key takeaways for effective board oversight
