Summary

Many companies don’t have procedures for offboarding directors. So, how can boards approach a conversation that's often overdue—and uncomfortable? In this episode, Evelyn Dilsaver, a director on the board of Bailard, Health Equity, and Somnigroup International, and NACD advisor Susan Paley unpack director offboarding. They discuss what may cause a director to step down, how boards can handle departures with care, and why succession planning is crucial. Host: Susan Paley , NACD advisor Guest: Evelyn Dilsaver , audit committee chair, Somnigroup International; director, Bailard, Healthy Equity, PACS Group, QuidelOrtho; advisory board member, Protiviti Related NACD Resources: Guidance for Boards on Identifying and Addressing Problematic Director Behavior The Healthy Departure: Considerations for Effective Off-Boarding Director Essentials: Succession Planning for Board and Committee Leaders Visit nacdonline.org for further research and information.
