The role of the chairman of the board is unlike any other in a modern corporation. It varies with the size, type and corporate climate of the organisation, and the recent wave of corporate scandals is certainly bound to redefine the responsibilities of any future chairman.
This book offers advise on such matters as ethical considerations, corporate social responsibilities, working with the CEO and performance evaluation of the board and its members. Using examples illustrating real-life challenges and how companies have overcome them with both positive and negative results, Brian Lechem's guidelines will give any chairman the opportunity to be successful. |
