Corporate Boards That Create Value Hardcover - 2002 - 1st Edition
by John Carver; Caroline Oliver (Joint Author); Foreword by Adrian Cadbury
Just as "Boards That Make a Difference" hit a note with nonprofit boards, "Boards That Add Value" will do so with corporate boards. Carver and Oliver apply Carver's successful Policy Governance model to the governing of for-profit organizations. (June)
Summary
This book applies John Carver's highly successful Policy Governance(r) model to corporate boards. Carver and boardroom consultant Caroline Oliver explain the world's only conceptually coherent operating system for boards. This simple yet profound system clarifies roles, empowers directors and senior management alike, and makes accountability feasible to a previously unattainable degree. The authors suggest a redefinition and elevation of the value that boards should create and show how to apply the Policy Governance design to commanding company performance. Corporate Boards That Create Value gives corporate directors and all who care about governance a powerful tool for success.
First line
Corporate governance, once overlooked, is now center stage.
From the jacket flap
Today's company directors face overwhelming governance challenges. "Best practices" provide directors with only piecemeal solutions. This book explains Policy Governance, the only complete and conceptually coherent operating system for boards. John Carver, the creator of The Policy Governance model and boardroom consultant Caroline Oliver demonstrate that the value a board should add is not to the company's management but to the company's owners.
Briefly and clearly explained, this simple yet profound system clarifies the board, chair, and CEO roles. Its appealing logic empowers directors and senior management alike. The authors first examine the kind of value that boards typically add, and suggest a redefinition and elevation of value that boards can create. They then set out the basics of Policy Governance design through which boards can deliver value, and they show how to apply the design to the board's process, its relationship with the CEO, and the manner in which it commands company performance. Carver and Oliver go on to demonstrate the mechanics with which Policy Governance makes accountability feasible to a previously unattainable degree. Finally the authors outline what boards can do to make sure they stay on track. A more rigorous paradigm for board leadership, the authors argue, clarifies and enriches the conversation about leadership, accountability, and policy-making. Corporate Boards That Create Value gives corporate directors and all who care about governance a powerful tool for success.
