Best Practices: On-Boarding the Board



by Iconix Brand Group, Inc. - Office

April 29, 2008

Previously published by LexisNexis® Martindale-Hubbell® Counsel to Counsel Magazine on May 2008

Situation: In the post-Sarbanes-Oxley era, many companies are increasing the independence and efficacy of their boards by bringing in "fresh blood." While new directors add needed expertise and perspective, they may have little or no experience in how to function effectively as a board member. Training is critical to helping these board members understand the company's business and hastening their ability to add value on a long- and short-term basis.
