The article merely scratches the surface. We can probably agree that corporations have certain structural flaws, but I doubt making a CEOs life more burdensome - who would take the job under a claw-back regime without some kind of financial protection? - will improve the picture.

One line of inspiration come from government - maybe a bicameral board - one for managing quarterlies, the other for longer horizons - might fix some issues.

Another might be to limit cronyism - boards seats given to CEO appointees, or limiting the number of board seats a person can hold.
