Whatever the size or nature of the organization, its directors are constantly faced with a myriad of problems and dilemmas: whether it's financial failure, fraud, succession issues, directors' indiscretions, a personality clash, a hostile takeover or low staff morale. This work provides a glimpse behind the boardroom door to witness the wrangles and clashes. There are 40 real-life cases with conclusions for action.
"… a good read for anyone but essential for would-be directors."
- City to Cities - London
"Although by their nature dilemmas are often very personal events and therefore require personal decisions, this entertaining book covers a wide spectrum and there is representation of nearly all types of organisation in which directors may be found."
- CHARTERED SECRETARY, January 2001
"Practical advice based on a wealth of experience is what this book is all about, and it comes highly recommended for all those who are, or want to be directors. It will improve the performance of all boards."
