In today's economic and regulatory environment, healthcare corporations and their leadership face a host of legal and reputational challenges that must be addressed strategically and proactively. The Governing Health thought leadership series, delivered by McDermott governance partner Michael W. Peregrine, provides engaging, issue-based resources on the risk areas corporations face and how the general counsel's office and the board can address them.

The supervision, compensation and retention of senior executive leadership is an increasingly pressing issue for boards of directors. On this episode, the second in a two-part series, Michael Peregrine welcomes John Challenger, CEO of outplacement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas, and Ralph DeJong, partner at McDermott Will & Emery, to discuss the uptick in CEO turnover levels. This dynamic episode explores how CEO retention issues influence the decision-making process of the executive compensation committee and other board committees.
