Annotation For nepotism, lethargy, and plain old misguidance, few corporate entities can top the board of directors. And that's a shame, because engaged, knowledgeable boards can make a world of difference, setting an organization's strategic direction, infusing it with valuable expertise, and rendering the company attractive to investors. The Board Book is the most succinct, reader-friendly guide available to recruiting and managing on-track, top-notch corporate boards -- the kind that serve as pivotal success factors for companies of every size. Packed with both real-life success and horror stories, this fast-paced book explains the 11 guiding principles for transforming a board, exploring issues such as: -- Using insiders, consultants, and friends on a board-- Interlocking directorships -- Conflicts of interest-- Diversity -- Information flow-- Complacency -- Board overload-- Groupthink -- Turnover, and more
