Inside Director Compensation: Key Developments for 2026

In this webinar with Pearl Meyer and the NACD, our experts explore emerging trends in equity design, committee compensation, and governance structures shaping director compensation in 2026.

Pearl Meyer and NACD recently completed the 27th 2025–2026 NACD Director Compensation Report, which analyzes director pay practices at 1,400 public companies across 24 industries, and provides the most current data on cash and equity compensation, board leadership premiums, committee pay, and related governance policies.

This on-demand webinar with Pearl Meyer and NACD positions the report’s high-level findings in historical context, highlighting how director compensation programs are responding to increased oversight expectations in areas such as risk, technology, and board composition. The webinar also explores evolving practices around equity grant design, leadership premiums, and committee compensation as boards continue to simplify pay structures while reinforcing alignment with long-term shareholder interests.
