Salzburg Questions for Corporate Governance

The Salzburg Questions for Corporate Governance was an online discussion series introduced and led by Fellows who participated in the Salzburg Global Corporate Governance Forum.

Between November 2018 and March 2022, Salzburg Global Fellows regularly published thought-pieces to spark discussion around key issues for the future of corporate governance. Articles were published both on SalzburgGlobal.org and on LinkedIn, where we encouraged Fellows and their networks to post responses and join in the discussion.

To date, the series has garnered more than 2,000 reactions on LinkedIn. You can find the links to the LinkedIn discussion in each article below.
