Boards of directors are sitting ducks. Shareholders complain and
even attack, management manipulates, and individual board members
have little power, able to act only as part of the board as a
whole. Governance issues are front and center, yet there is often
little understanding, even among board members, of the key role
that they play. Written in an accessible and human voice, The
Governance Revolution: What Every Board Member Needs to Know, NOW!
provides information and context essential to anyone seeking to
understand how corporations and their stewards-the board of
directors-can and should function in the volatile world we inhabit.
Deborah Hicks Midanek offers useful insight into what board members
of corporations actually do, the current standards for board
members and why they exist. She includes a timely discussion of how
clarity of purpose can improve board and director effectiveness.
Informed by her long experience serving public, private, and family
owned corporate boards as well as those of charitable, and
government organizations, she provides essential context regarding
the evolution of board practice as well as candid discussion of the
issues involved in the relentless effort to improve corporate
governance processes. Focused mainly on the dominant public
corporation, she also explores the special challenges of serving
private and family owned as well as nonprofit and public agency
boards. Written by a seasoned board member, and liberally laced
with stories and cases illustrating the tricky issues directors
wrestle with, this book is the essential common-sense companion for
anyone working with a board, serving on a board, or wanting to do
so. Directors, aspiring directors, investors, and students of
corporate behavior will benefit from this highly readable
description of the cloistered boardroom. For Roger Trapp's article
