The Independent Director Bewertungen

The Independent Director is hugely timely, and contains a wealth of guidance and case studies built on decades of real market experience. Written by a practitioner, with the help of 30 experienced industrialists. The Independent Director provides a fascinating and honest account of the opportunities and pitfalls of the life as an Independent Director. A must read for the corporate world. (Credit Control, January-February, 2017)

'The purpose of this book is to explain what independent directors do, how they do it, and why. ... It goes on to explore key themes that are critical issues for boards. The book is aimed at people who are interested in becoming independent directors themselves one day, or who simply want to know more about the role and what it entails. It is my hope also that some serving independent directors will also find it useful.' (David Marx, David Marx Book Reviews, davidmarxbookreviews.wordpress.com, August, 2016)
