Distinguished governance experts offer cures for what ails our boards of directors In light of corporate malfeasance in recent years, the governance of corporations has been receiving great attention from regulators, researchers, shareholders, and directors themselves. Based on Richard Leblanc's in-depth five-year study of 39 boards of directors of both for- and not-for-profit organizations, Building a Better Board goes behind the scenes to reveal the inner workings of boards of directors, including how they make decisions. Richard Leblanc, PhD (Toronto, Ontario, Canada), is an award-winning teacher, lawyer, management consultant, and professor who teaches corporate governance at the Schulich School of Business, York University, and at the Robert H. Smith School of Business, University of Maryland.
