CEO Compensation: What Board Members Think
Survey data were gathered from 660 board members of the largest publicly traded corporations. They think that CEO compensation is too high in many corporations. Board members believe that the most-powerful way to reduce CEO compensation levels would be to have mandatory shareholder-approval of compensation plans. Most feel that their CEO-compensation plan is reasonably effective. Board members also feel that tying pay more-closely to performance is desirable. Board members place the blame for excessive CEO-compensation levels more on consultants than the boards themselves.
