In泭How Boards Work, prizewinning economist, veteran board director, and bestselling author Dambisa Moyo offers an insiders view of corporate boards as they are buffeted by the turbulence of our times.

Corporations need boards that are more transparent, more knowledgeable, more diverse, and more deeply involved in setting the strategic course of the companies they lead.
