During the session, we will focus on the practical aspects of the relationship between the management board and the supervisory board in corporations—from the division of responsibilities and the limits of the supervisory board’s interference in the management of the company to the consequences of the management board acting without the required consent of the supervisory board.
We will also discuss the business judgment rule and its significance for the liability of board members for decisions made under conditions of economic risk, as well as the most common areas of risk and disputes arising in corporate practice.
We will also present changes to the Commercial Companies Code of 2026 that are significant from the perspective of the management board and the supervisory board.
