Federal and state-level laws, as well as a company's incorporation documents, require public and private corporations in the U.S. to have boards of directors (BoDs). Although private LLCs do not have the same requirements, some choose to elect a board of directors after incorporating.
In the case of corporations, the structure and powers of a board are established by the company's articles of incorporation and its corporate bylaws. Bylaws can set the number of board members, how the board is elected (e.g., by a shareholder vote at an annual meeting), and how often the board meets.
For publicly traded companies, boards typically comprise executive, nonexecutive, and independent directors elected by shareholders. This is known as a one-tier board structure. The board of directors often includes the CEO and sometimes the CFO of the company.
In most legal systems, the appointment and removal of directors is voted upon by the shareholders in general meeting or through a proxy statement. For publicly traded companies in the U.S., the directors which are available to vote on are largely selected by either the board as a whole or a nominating committee.
