Suncor's Board of Directors provides strategic guidance to the company, sets policy direction, and ensures that we are fairly reporting our progress and maintaining high ethical standards.

The board consists of 12 directors. The role of chairman is assumed by an independent director and is separate from the role of chief executive officer. All Board committees are comprised entirely of independent directors.
