Beschreibung: | Based on interviews with leading chairmen and senior executives, All Above Board examines the key functions of the ideal 21st century board, how and why badly led boards fail, and what changes can be made to improve board behaviour and efficiency for best practice. The role of the company board, the CEO and the Chairman are critical to establishing a positive leadership culture in any organization. At a time when leadership failure at board level has been headline news and when in a period of economic stress corporations are under great pressure to create shareholder as well as wider social value, strong and effective leadership from the boardroom is more essential than ever. By analysing the unique viewpoints of over 60 chairmen and CEOs from leading multinationals such as Volvo, e-Bay, Tesco, Goldman Sachs, UBS and Unilever, the author looks at good and bad boardroom behavior and explains how real and effective changes can be made to improve the workings of the board. This rare access gives him unique insight to the current workings of some of the world's most influential boardrooms and a real sense of how boards might perform more effectively Introduction : all above board -- The board of the future -- Enhancing the chairman's value -- Chairman and CEO : tandem at the top -- The owner & the board -- The one team board challenge -- Leading in times of change & disruption -- The board and innovation -- Boosting peak performance -- Setting strategic agendas -- Summary and conclusions -- Research methodology |
