 Apple's corporate governance structure is defined by having a strong Board

of Directors, good oversight by senior management, committees that
control the company's operations and its corporate policies and practices.
 Apple has a good history in regard to corporate administration, but there are still
some places where it could do better. Here are some suggestions:

1. Transparency:

Apple can still do better by being more transparent about its supply chain and job practices,
even though it has made progress in disclosing information about its ecological and social
impact. Apple should clarify and make publicly known the roles and responsibilities of the
board and management. Apple may decide to use third-party assessments and feedback to
ensure compliance with its CSR guidelines and requirements.
2. Board level oversight:

Apple should consider creating a CSR committee within its executive leadership team to
track the firm's Csr policy and outcomes. By doing this, the company would be able to
demonstrate its commitment to CSR and ensure that it is included in its overarching
business plan.
3. Accountability:

Apple needs to ensure that their management is accountable to the board, and the board
needs to be accountable shareholders. Apple should also effectively communicate with its
stakeholders on how the company is achieving its business.
4. Interactions and treatment with Stakeholders:

Apple could engage with a broader range of stakeholders to better understand their
concerns and opinions regarding its CSR performance, such as local governments and
advocate groups. Stakeholders should all be treated equally and with fairness including
minority.
5. Setting high standard:

Apple could frequently update the public on its efforts to lessen its impact on the climate
and improve its societal efficiency.
6. Increased emphasis on social responsibility:

Apple has made progress in lowering its ecological consequences, but there is still space for
improvement by tackling societal issues like worker rights and human rights violations.

7. Increase the variety of the board:

The board of Apple could use more variety, particularly in terms of sexual preference and
race. Better decision-making may result from the broader range of opinions and experiences
that a more diverse team can offer.

8. Executives’ pay and CSR Integration:

Apple may give CSR measures some thought when determining executive compensation
schemes. This may involve collaborating with institutions and other stakeholders to identify
and address these issues earlier.

9. Apple needs to change its one-man decision mindset:

Even after the passing of Steve Jobs, who was regarded as the driving force behind Apple's
success, the company has continued to prosper. This shows that all director's choices are
crucial and essential (Carnette, 2015). To get rid of this CEO-focused decision-making
strategy and reduce the chance that the CEO and directors will have an impact on the
decision-making process, Apple needs to embrace more sharing processes and raise the
total amount of directors on its current board.

10. Independence:
Apples procedures and structures should be in place to minimize or avoid conflicts of
interest.

Additionally, it's critical for Apple's execs to avoid getting

complacent when it comes to interacting with stakeholders.

While the company undoubtedly enjoys a great deal of

popularity among its devoted customer base, it is important

to remember that there are other stakeholders in the

business as well. This is particularly true of its employees, as

they are the ones who keep Apple on the forefront of

innovation and contribute greatly to its popularity with

patrons. Finally, we think Apple needs to create a clear,

marketable CSR strategy because they do not presently have

one. Since we all consider the single bottom-line strategy to

be untenable, Apple will promote openness and a multiple

bottom-line business mindset by doing this.

In conclusion, Apple, one of the biggest global manufacturers

of devices, performs reasonably in terms of corporate
governance. The activities of its board of directors and its
corporate social responsibility policies are the primary causes
for concern with respect to corporate governance. These
regions need to be improved because they run the danger of
bringing down the complete organizations. Apple's
shareholders must figure out how to deal with the CEO's
excessive power while also improving the company's
corporate social responsibility program to better meet
societal requirements.

That is it from us, thank you for taking out your time and
listening to our presentation. Hope you enjoyed it.
