better able than other companies to navigate through a crisis.
Are companies better off with employee representation on their
boards? This session’s objective is to review the impact of different
corporate governance models of employee representation on
boards and identify the benefi ts hereof for corporate performance.
The discussion will focus both on the German corporate
governance model (which is often seen as the role model for
employee representation in boards) and company experience
with employee representation in boards from a general counsel’s
perspective.
