Answer:

C) Retired controller of a Fortune 500 company.

Step-by-step explanation:

Corporate governance refers to the rules and practices that dictate how a company is run. Strong corporate governance ensures that the board of directors will have a solid relationship with the shareholders, the employees and the community.

The strongest candidate for XYZ's board is the retired controller of a Fortune 500 company, since he can provide experience, knowledge and independence to the board.
