Customer Reviews

An important discussion of directors' responsibilities.

Mr. Bowen gives an important perspective about the responsibilities and duties of members of boards of directors. He shows a deep understanding of the role of directors of both for-profit and not-for-profit organizations. The not-for-profit director's importance is often overlooked, so this book is a welcome addition to the literature about boards of directors.
