Outside Director
Outside Director or Independent Director
- An Outside Director is a member
of your Board of Directors who is neither a shareholder, officer, or any other
employee of your corporation. The value of an outside director is that he or she
is free from the occasional pressures that may be applied to those directors who
are dependent upon continued employment by the corporation, and hence, dependent
upon satisfying the demands of other more powerful officers, directors and
shareholders.
