InBox: Study Says CEOs Disappoint as Board Members, But Numbers Tell a Different Story

摘要

A recent survey suggests that sitting CEOs may actually be less effective directors than non-CEOs, citing the responses of 79 percent of directors who said sitting CEOs were no more effective in the role than non-CEOs. The summary of the 2011 Corporate Board of Directors Survey also noted that 55 percent of respondents felt that retired CEOs are actually more effective than active CEOs at board services, and suggested that active CEOs simply haven't got the time to do the director job well.
