Synopsis

This book will help Chairs to form a strong team, build a resilient relationship with the CEO, assess how to use their considerable power, and when to show self-restraint.

Board members often struggle to identify their true role, caught between the Chair and the executive board. As a result, board members frequently have doubts about their role and personal impact; doubts which are rarely acknowledged nor addressed. By focusing on the most impactful driver of success – the human behavior – the author explores how to create a strong board team whose members are clear about the team’s role, are able to talk about their concerns, and are therefore also comfortable to listen, to challenge, and to support.

Based on around 60 interviews around the globe and his own board experience, this book will help Chairs to form a strong team, build a resilient relationship with the CEO, assess how to use their considerable power, and when to show self-restraint. Navigating the Boardroom supports board members and managers in reflecting on how to navigate the complex web of boardroom relations and provides both practical and attitudinal tips.
