Das Board of Directors (dt.  etwa Verwaltungsrat) ist im anglo-amerikanischen Raum das Leitungs- und Kontrollgremium eines Unternehmens. Es vereinigt in etwa die Funktionen von Vorstand und Aufsichtsrat einer deutschen Aktiengesellschaft und stellt somit ein monistisches System der Unternehmensführung dar. Die Mitglieder des Boards werden allein von den Anteilseignern, in der Regel durch die Hauptversammlung, gewählt. Arbeitnehmervertreter, wie etwa im Aufsichtsrat großer Kapitalgesellschaften in Deutschland, sind im Board of Directors nicht vorgesehen. Die Direktoren werden meist in geschäftsführende (executive) und nicht-geschäftsführende (non-executive) Direktoren unterschieden. Die geschäftsführenden Direktoren, häufig als Chief Officers bezeichnet, übernehmen die operative Geschäftsführung des Unternehmens und entsprechen somit dem Vorstand einer deutschen AG. Die nicht geschäftsführenden Direktoren sind vor allem in einer Beratungs- und Kontrollfunktion tätig und üben dieses Amt nicht hauptberuflich aus, sie sind auch keine Angestellten des Unternehmens. Ihr Amt ist mit dem eines Mitgliedes des Aufsichtsrats einer deutschen AG vergleichbar. Auch in einer Europäischen Gesellschaft (SE) kann die Unternehmensleitung durch ein Board of Directors ausgeübt werden. Die SE bietet Wahlfreiheit zwischen dem monistischen System und dem dualistischen System. Japanische kabushiki-gaisha werden ebenfalls von einem derartigen, torishimariyaku-kai genanntem, Gremium geleitet. Im Russischen wird statt des Vorstandes der Aufsichtsrat als Rat der Direktoren (Совет директоров, Sowjet Direktorow) bezeichnet, eine bessere Übersetzung von Совет директоров wäre daher Direktoriumsbeirat (dem Direktorium beigeordneter Aufsichtsrat).
