We discuss the subtle yet crucial differences between shadow, de facto, and silent directors, unpack real-world cases, and highlight the significant risks involved.

Whether you're a corporate governance professional or just curious about boardroom dynamics, this episode will give you a clearer understanding of how influence operates behind the scenes and the legal implications for those involved.
