Proxy battles are like high-stakes lawsuits. Both sides need to craft compelling arguments and be vigilant in protecting against counter arguments in the eyes of stakeholders. 

 

Drawing from our experiences from assisting both sides, we know what key information resonates with the room and where to find it. Our investigations:
 

• Uncover hidden relationships and affiliations that raise governance concerns

• Unearth conflicts of interests, entanglements, and situations concerning self-dealing

• Bring to light any guidance misses, misrepresentations and misstatements 

• Contextualize the professional track record to identify available narrative surrounding the fitness of an individual’s incumbency or candidacy  

• Leverage the full spectrum of the public record to identify any disqualifying information, such issues pertaining to overboarding, litigation history, personal conduct and character
