Summary |
The Non-Executive Directors Handbook offers NEDs, aspiring NEDs and their advisors an essential insight into the work of the non-executive director. It provides an accessible and practical guide to the increasingly significant role non-executives play in the independent oversight of organisations.
The Handbook guides the reader through the life cycle of the non-executive, starting pre-appointment and addressing along the way topics such as legal duties and liabilities, boardroom behaviour and dynamics and the role NEDs play on board committees. Coverage also includes chapters on managing risk, director development, performance evaluation and stakeholder communications.
The aim is to provide a working tool for non-executives, with the commentary illustrated throughout by a range of case examples and practical checklists.
The new edition of the Handbook has been fully updated to reflect the most recent legislation and regulation, including the UK Corporate Governance Code, the Stewardship Code and the Guidance on Board Effectiveness.
