The most up-to-date version of the gold standard in board governance

In the newly revised second edition of High Performance Boards: A Practical Guide to Improving & Energizing your Governance, author Didier Cossin delivers an incisive and practical roadmap to board governance best-practices. Accessible to professionals from a variety of backgrounds, the book lays out the foundational and advanced concepts you'll need to understand to effectively govern a for-profit firm, non-profit, or government entity.

You'll learn to manage risk, increase the impact of your board, consider and evaluate the importance of ESG metrics, take into account geopolitics, and supervise your organization's culture. You'll also discover:

  • Extensive revisions to existing chapters, including new methods of cyber-risk management and stakeholder management
  • Strategies for avoiding the common pitfall of 'greenwashing'
  • Increasingly common new activism techniques undertaken by boards and investors to shape the behaviour of organizations

An indispensable resource for board members and directors serving on boards at organizations of all kinds, High Performance Boards will also earn a place on the bookshelves of corporate lawyers, board secretaries, and students of corporate governance.
