The book

InHow Boards Work, prizewinning economist, veteran board director, and bestselling author Dambisa Moyo offers an insider鈥檚 view of corporate boards as they are buffeted by the turbulence of our times. Drawing on her decade of experience serving on corporate boards, Moyo lays out what it is that boards actually do, and she outlines how they must adapt to survive the challenges of coming years. Corporations need boards that are more transparent, more knowledgeable, more diverse, and more deeply involved in setting the strategic course of the companies they lead.

How Boards Work听is an urgent road map for how boards can steer companies through tomorrow鈥檚 challenges and ensure they thrive to benefit their employees, shareholders, and society at large.
