Corporate governance


At Stryker, we are committed to doing what’s right and upholding our company values.

Good corporate governance is essential, and we strive to conduct our affairs in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and in accordance with the highest ethical standards. Our policies and guidelines provide transparency and clarity for our employees and stakeholders.

At the forefront of our organization is a winning team that measures the success of the Company not only by financial growth, but by how well we meet our own high standards of accountability. Our Board of Directors is elected annually and consists entirely of independent directors (with the exception of our Chair and CEO, Kevin Lobo). Together, the Board of Directors combines education, experience and a rich history of commitment to Stryker in making decisions that benefit our Company, our shareholders, and ultimately, the lives of the patients we serve.
