Peter Browning: Boardroom Legens on Leadership, Legacy, and the Timeless Truths of Governance
A legendary board director who’s served on more than 14 public company boards, including lead roles at Nucor, Acuity Brands, and now ScanSource, Peter has witnessed a seismic shift in how boards operate, govern, and lead. He’s also steered companies through bankruptcies and cultural transformations, co-authored The Director’s Manual, and proven that true wisdom isn’t just earned in the boardroom – it’s forged in life’s most personal trials.
