corporate leadership

Company's top brass

Corporate leadership refers to the executives and senior managers who direct a company's strategy and operations—the CEO, board members, and upper management collectively.

The term often appears in discussions of organizational culture, accountability, or scandal: Corporate leadership failed to address the safety concerns, The company's turnaround required new corporate leadership.

It can sound like a euphemism, abstracting responsibility away from specific individuals.
