Boards by Patrick Dunne
Boards, the 2nd edition of the award-winning book, provides a practical, realistic, thought-provoking and useful guide to life as a board member.
Fully updated, the “Purpose”, “People” and “Process” structure continues to work well with new content covering the pandemic and its impact on boards and how they operate, diversity and inclusion, culture, stakeholder management, board reviews, smaller listed companies as well as the increased use of technology.
This combined with a series of real-life dilemmas for readers to practice on, makes this book an ideal companion whether you are an aspirant, novice or seasoned campaigner.
Drawing on Patrick’s extensive range of experience working with and on boards in many sectors, in the UK and internationally, it is equally applicable to business, charities and social enterprises, professional services firms, public bodies and universities.
The book is also written in a highly accessible and engaging style that brings life and fun to what is a very serious topic.
Boards has won the HR & Management Category of the Business Books Awards for 2020, and in the judges’ decision: ‘An easy read, it delivers invaluable advice, with practical, real-life case studies, that enable the reader to better understand the challenges of working at board level. Whether you are a new or experienced board member, or on the senior leadership team working with board members, this is an invaluable guide that will enable, empower and enrich your understanding, interactions and contribution.’
