If Broc had to describe himself, the positive traits that characterize him best would be pragmatic, innovative, decisive, analytical and empathetic. Oh yes, and fun.

As for negative traits, it could be that he cares too much. I know that sounds self-serving, but that can lead to a lack of ability to adequately delegate. And a lack of ability to get sufficient sleep. There are other negative traits to dwell on – but as his wife can attest, he’s spent a lot of time ironing those out over the years. Anyway, who lists their deficiencies in a bio? Now for the more formal bio…

Broc also serves as the Editor for VoiceReallyMatters.com, a site that covers “all things voice” in a simple, easy-to-read style – providing practical guidance about how you can leverage voice assistants, hearables, wearables & other voice devices to save time and make your life easier.

Until the end of 2019, Broc Romanek was Editor of TheCorporateCounsel.net, CompensationStandards.com, DealLawyers.com and CorporateAffairs.tv. He also served as Editor for these print newsletters: Deal Lawyers and the Corporate Governance Advisor. He was Commissioner of TheCorporateCounsel.net’s “Blue Justice League” and curator of its “Deal Cube Museum.” Here’s one of the blogs that he ran for 17 years as part of that day job (he had six blogs altogether), Twitter handle and YouTube channel.

Broc also is an author of these Treatises: Romanek’s “Proxy Season Disclosure Treatise & Reporting Guide”; Romanek’s “In-House Essentials Treatise”; Morrison & Romanek’s “The Corporate Governance Treatise” and Lynn, Borges & Romanek’s “Executive Compensation Disclosure Treatise.” He also is the author of the paperbacks: “Reg FD Tales,” “Section 16 Tales” and “101 Pro Tips – Career Advice for the Ages.”

He is a former member of the Society’s National Board of Directors (having served two terms). He also is a Past Chair of the Association of Corporate Counsel’s Corporate & Securities Law Committee and formerly served on the Advisory Council for the SEC Historical Society.
