Corporate Director's Guidebook, Fifth Edition

摘要

This is the fifth edition of the Corporate Director's Guidebook. Since its initial publication in 1978, the Guidebook has been relied upon by directors and business executives, as well as by those who advise them and by students of corporate governance. Indeed, the Guidebook has become the most frequently cited handbook in its field.rnThe primary purpose of the Guidebook is to provide concise guidance to corporate directors in meeting their responsibilities. The Guidebook focuses on the role of the individual director as well as the functions of the board of directors and its key committees. Although the Guidebook's organizing framework is based upon the law, we have made every effort to keep the prose free of legalisms because our target audience is corporate directors, not lawyers.
