“This is the kind of down-to-earth, practical resource I could have used a quarter-century ago! It’s chock full of practical partnership-building techniques that you can put to immediate use in your organization.”
Jeffrey A. Finkle, President & CEO, International Economic Development Council
Using real-world case examples, Doug describes five keys to building a rock-solid partnership between the organization’s CEO and the board of directors: 1.) Bring the right mindset to the governing arena; 2.) Make the board chair a close ally; 3.) Turn board members into strong owners; 4.) Make the board’s work more interesting and enjoyable; and 5.) Put a well-designed CEO-evaluation process in place.
The perfect companion volume to Doug’s Meeting the Governing Challenge, this book provides tested, practical guidance that you can put to work today in helping to manage the emotional/psychological dimension of the CEO-board relationship.
