Assessing and communicating corporate culture in a postpandemic world

April 2024

It is crucial for every board to understand the state of its company’s culture and the potential risks its corporate culture may provoke.  But assessing and overseeing the culture of a large company is a task that has become both more complex and more critical because of the profound social changes accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic.

On March 5, 2024, members of the Audit Committee Leadership Network (ACLN) convened in Austin, Texas, to discuss how companies are adapting to cultural changes and good practices for board oversight of culture.  Members were joined by Page Motes, vice president for sustainability and impact at the Hertz Corporation, to explore this topic.
