Governance & Oversight

Architecture of accountability.

C&B Group is governed by four independent boards, each chartered to advise on a specific dimension of the firm's responsibility to clients, employees, partners, and the communities we serve.

Risk Oversight

Operations Trust.

Chaired by Darshell Brown, Senior Risk Manager.

Operations Trust is C&B's first board and the architecture behind every decision the firm executes under contract. It monitors enterprise risk across operational, legal, reputational, and financial dimensions, coordinating mitigation when thresholds are reached and authorizing responsible disengagement when they are exceeded.

  • Enterprise risk monitoring across all active engagements
  • Insurance, indemnity, and liability oversight
  • Reputational risk and disengagement protocols
  • Quarterly risk-posture review

Mission Alignment

Human Service Board.

Chaired by Nicole Welds, LCSW.

The Human Service Board anchors C&B to its founding mission of applying business discipline to social problems. Clinicians and human-service professionals guide program design, ensuring engagements that touch vulnerable populations are structured around evidence-based practice, ethical clinical standards, and measurable human outcomes.

  • Program design review for health and human-service contracts
  • Ethical standards for engagements touching vulnerable populations
  • SDG-aligned outcome measurement
  • Recent: advised on the Newport News engagement

Community Outcomes

Public Health & Social Impact.

Chaired by Senyte Pierce. Joining the Managing Partners September 2026.

Public Health & Social Impact ensures the firm's construction, development, and workforce engagements create measurable community returns. The board integrates public-health expertise into infrastructure work, including workforce development, trade training, healthcare-adjacent construction, and targeted economic support for women entering industries that have historically excluded them.

  • Community impact metrics for development and construction work
  • Workforce development standards and trade training oversight
  • Women-in-trades and minority workforce inclusion
  • Cross-functional review with Operations Trust on safety
