Michele Govekar, Ohio Northern University professor of management, has been named a Certified Board Advisor by the Center for Strategic Business Integrity.
The CBA designation is granted to a select group of individuals with the responsibility for acting as director of and/or as key advisor to corporate boards. The CBA is responsible for driving robust oversight of any corporate enterprise by deterring, detecting, responding and resolving material corporate negligence in strategic decision-making as well as business irregularities and corruption before the damage is done.
Each CBA must meet the rigorous standards of the Center’s certification program, including character, relevant experience and accomplishments demonstrating that they are equipped with the skills and ethics necessary to direct modern corporate enterprise.
John L. Verna, executive director for the Center for Strategic Business, said, “By virtue of Michele’s outstanding background and professional accomplishments, she has earned the CBA and will no doubt uphold and promote the CBA’s code of conduct, effectively promoting the Center’s mission to significantly improve corporate oversight.”
