It was a fantastic day 1 at the Berkeley Fall Forum on Corporate Governance! Day 2 kicks off at 9 am PDT with a discussion on AI in corporate legal departments, moderated by Cooley's chief innovation officer, David Wang. Tune in virtually: https://lnkd.in/gVwBRa6 #BerkeleyForum
🌟 We are pleased to kick off the 2025 Berkeley Fall Forum on Corporate Governance with our opening panel, “Viral Moments in Executive Reputation and Values.” This thought-provoking conversation brought together a distinguished group of leaders shaping how reputation and authenticity are understood at the highest levels of corporate leadership: Elizabeth Lopatto (Senior Reporter, The Verge), Susanne Sachsman Grooms (Partner, Cooley LLP), Kelly Sullivan (Partner, Joele Frank), and Lauren Tilstra (Global Chief Marketing and Communications Officer, World Bank Group), moderated by Angeli Patel (Executive Director, Berkeley Center for Law and Business). Together, they unpacked what happens behind the scenes when executives face defining public moments: how their advisors, communication teams, and legal counsel help navigate the delicate balance between strategic messaging and genuine expression. The panel explored how figures like Steve Jobs and Elon Musk helped shape the “celebrity CEO,” showing how personality, narrative, and public perception have become central to a company’s identity and value. Key insights emerged around the tension between authenticity and credibility -- when does a message sound genuine, and when does it start to feel rehearsed or overly sanitized by legal teams? Panelists emphasized the importance of knowing where an executive stands in the lifecycle of their role, how they define their stakeholders, and how they ensure trusted advisors are willing to say more than just “yes.” A special thank-you to our panelists and moderator for opening the forum with such dynamic insights into the evolving landscape of executive reputation and values!
