About the Corporate Governance Group

The Corporate Governance Group was founded in 1995. We are a group of faculty actively engaged in corporate governance-related activities in the areas of research, teaching and service. Our outreach to the community includes faculty sitting on boards, providing opinions to the press, consulting, expert witness work, boardroom and classroom education, and publishing in both trade and academic journals.
