Giving Voice to Values in the Boardroom

Cynthia Clark

Routledge

The principles of giving voice to values start by asking a deceptively simple question: ‘What if you were going to act on your values – what would you say and do?’

Giving Voice to Values in the Boardroom offers an overview of the current landscape of corporate governance along with the major rules and director duties applicable to the board of directors. A set of ‘board challenges’ containing a series of five scenarios that involves the tensions often found in board work follows in the book’s latter chapters.

Topics covered include strategic planning and monitoring, director independence, privacy and cyber risk, executive compensation and CEO succession planning. Readers can also grapple with the conflicts of interest that might arise in the director selection process, role of the nominating committee and the compensation committee in order to cultivate more optimal board dynamics.
