Governance

PPG's Board of Directors oversees the development and execution of our strategy, and we have sound governance policies and practices to support our business and strategy. Our Board is an independent, experienced and diverse group of leaders with the skills necessary to carry out its functions as a governing body on behalf of PPG’s shareholders. PPG’s Corporate Governance Guidelines and the charters of the Board’s standing committees form the framework for governance of PPG at the Board level.

The company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines (PDF) outline the structure of governance of the company at the Board level. PPG’s Board of Directors maintains four standing committees, each comprised solely of independent, nonemployee members of the Board:
