New CEOs and Boards is an indispensable resource for any new CEO to start their board relationship off on the right foot - and make the most of it, throughout their career. It offers practical advice based on the author's work with nearly 200 Boards of Directors over the past 25 years, from analyzing the board you've inherited to putting your own stamp on the way your executive team works the board - all the while avoiding common pitfalls that plague many new CEOs early in their board relationship. Later chapters outline tools and initiatives designed to enhance the board's overall effectiveness - without a lot of drama. It's filled with innovative ideas and sound advice from the author of the governance classic, Great Companies Deserve Great Boards.
