Partnership in a Time of Pandemic: The CEO and the Board

In a time of crisis, it’s not on the chief executive to do it all. Today, it is imperative that we look to the partnership between the chief executive and the board. It is the community they form that must step up. This post by Ann Cohen on the BoardSource blog showcases three ways to put this practice into action:

  1. Responsibility for Decision-Making: Taking full responsibility for the organization
  2. Humility: Understanding that one’s knowledge is not the complete and relying on others is critical
  3. Adaptively planning: Continuity planning with the immediate and longer view
