agree  Steffen Walter: Equally valid alternative, could be even Board *Member* (or Directors') portfolios since I read it as a re-distribution of responsibilities amongst existing Board Members

executive committee responsibilities


Explanation:
Board cannot be right, because it is autonomous and nobody can tell it what to do. The executive committee, though, chaired by the chief executive officer (CEO) must take orders from the board. The elected board of directors has the power to dismiss the CEO.
