| Summary: | "This book looks at boards in a variety of countries and contexts, from small firms to large corporations. It explores the working style of boards and how they can best achieve their task expectations. Board effectiveness and value creation are shown to be the result of interactions between owners, managers, board members and other actors. Board behaviour is thus seen to be a result of strategising, norms, board leadership and the decision-making culture within the boardroom." "Combining value creation, behavioural and ethical approaches to the study of boards, this work offers a systematic framework which will be of value to reflective practitioners, graduate students and researchers in the fields of business ethics, strategic management and corporate governance."--BOOK JACKET. |
