CEO pay should be maxed out at about a million for the best ones that didn't start and own the company as the company creator and no company bonuses that exceed 25% of salary for anyone. This way it curbs inflation caused by excessive executive pay. Also board members get nothing, they own most of the stock so they are paid enough in profit, if they are paid it is not deductable as a payroll expense like actual workers and the board members have to pay the taxes on it as a single asset without deductions of any sort so that celebrity getting a 50k salary to attend 4 meeting a year or 12 monthly meetings will disappear. No one on a board that is not an investor that has no knowledge in the companies field as in no actor hired at Intel without a thorough knowledge of cpu design and manufacturing.
