Thanks, I am all for a shake up to inspire some momentum.
I would have thought most companies would have rules and or clauses in employment contracts preventing their staff from sharing information on forums such as HC. These rules are put in place to prevent insider trading. I don't have corporate experience, can anyone shed some light on the normal expectations in this scenario?
Is there going to be an advantage having a new face on the board if they are forced to abide by the same rules as the other directors?
Is the general consensus here that:
1. The company directors are doing the bare minimum and reporting everything.
2. The directors are doing more than they are telling us but not reporting it.

It has to be one or the other, it can't be both?
Is one new member going to be enough to sway a vote in the current boys club?
