Outstanding Performance in
Boards of Directors
--Daniel D Elash
For
today's boards of directors to become truly effective in fulfilling

Directors
and Damaging Directors -- R
Gopalakrishnan
The
Board's real job is not to double guess the CEO or keep a
watch on him. It is to add value to the company decisions
by providing visible and proven collective wisdom to a competent,
aggressive and entrepreneurial CEO, the type of CEO every
company should aspire to have.

Board
empowerment is generally seen as a welcome change by most

taken in right spirit, benefits the management and the shareholders
alike. But there still remain some obstacles to make this

Richard M Furr and Lana J Furr

and environment of increased investor and governmental scrutiny.
However, corporate boards often operate with self-preservation
instinct and this prevents the board from raising the bar
for directors.
