A bunch of CEOs sitting on each others' boards have little reason to constrain the growth of CEO compensation, and every reason to give each other golden parachutes.

How do you then explain cases where shareholders do not approve executive compensation? For instance: https://time.com/6184355/ceo-pay-investors-workers/
Given the title of "Investors Are Finally Pushing Back", the explanation is presumably "people are getting fed up with boards doing this".
