This outstanding book reveals how boards governing 21st-century organizations can change their practices and align their principles to successfully govern the organization of the new economy.

The authors propose that judging a board's effectiveness should be done not in a 'shareholder' context but in a 'stakeholder' context instead. They couch their reforms in a framework that focuses on what determines effective governance behavior: information, knowledge, power, and rewards. They argue it is behavior, not practices that count, and look at boards from a group and an organizational perspective.
