I never knew there was a consulting niche for advising directors for public company boards of directors until I met Denise Kuprionis. She founded The Governance Solutions Group (GSG) based in Cincinnati, where she helps boards apply effective governance practices and achieve their most pressing objectives.

In this conversation, some of our topics include:

The way Denise finds clients to work with
The biggest difference between her board work today and ten years ago - there are not many
Board assessments
Corporate vs. board governance
CEO succession planning and when to start
Tone at the top
The role of a board of advisors in private companies
Sandra Kurtzig's first advisory group

This conversation also applies to private companies as Denise shares valuable nuggets for private company CEOs who could use the support of advisory board members to fill gaps where specialized knowledge is lacking.
