Boards That Lead
Book •
In 'Boards That Lead,' Ram Charan (with co-authors) provides a practical blueprint for how corporate boards can move from passive oversight to active leadership.
The book outlines the critical responsibilities of boards, including CEO selection, strategy oversight, and risk governance, and recommends concrete practices such as executive sessions and regular CEO-board dialogue.
It draws on examples from major corporations to show how engaged boards can add value without micromanaging.
The authors emphasise the importance of clarity in roles, regular assessment, and the board's role in coaching and, when necessary, replacing the CEO. The book serves as a hands-on manual for directors seeking to strengthen governance and governance-related decision-making.
