The Four Horsemen of the Governance Apocalypse

What happens when governance goes wrong? A set of negative patterns is usually the culprit, with small breakdowns quietly building over time until boards find themselves struggling with trust, clarity, or effectiveness. This episode of the Forward Thinking Podcast features FCCS SVP of Marketing and Communications Stephanie Barton, Chad Klawetter, Vice President of Board Governance and Development at FCCS, and Barb Wilkinson, Senior Board Governance Consultant at FCCS. Together, they examine the four warning signs that, left unaddressed, can seriously undermine a board’s ability to lead, govern, and create value.

“Rarely do we see huge, catastrophic things happen on boards. It’s usually something gradual, over time that leads to a more significant problem.” — Chad Klawetter

“A healthy board partnership is built on trust.” — Barb Wilkinson
