CEOs Should Set Tone for Corporate Culture

Transparency between executive management and the board is key to corporate success, according to Andre Choulika, chairman and CEO at Cellectis (CLLS) - Get Report . The board develops corporate strategy and sets goals, which the CEO and other executives must be responsible for executing. When it comes to corporate governance, Choulika says the CEO should set the tone and culture at a corporation, not the board. An effective board needs to be diverse, helping the company to grow based on the knowledge and experience of its board members.
