In the complex world of private companies, boardroom harmony is not always guaranteed. Disputes between directors and shareholders can quickly escalate, threatening the stability, governance, and future of the business.
This event explores the causes, consequences, and potential resolutions of such conflicts, offering practical insights for company leaders, legal advisors, and stakeholders.
During this session we will look at:
Â
- An overview of the duties which directors owe the company
Â
- The types of claims which directors may face if they do not comply with those duties
Â
- Common causes of boardroom disputes
Â
- Practical steps to avoid common pitfalls, and if a dispute does arise, the importance of having robust constitutional documents.
Please RSVP to secure your place.Â
We hope you are able to join us.Â
