Identifying key determinants of effective boards of directors / Abigail Levrau and Lutgart Van den Berghe -- International board evaluation: trends and practices / Chris Pierce -- Governance down-under : an overview of corporate governance in Australia / John Cottrell -- The Chinese boardroom: roles, dynamics and relationships / Nada Kakabadse, Andrew Kakabadse and Chen Yang -- Workings ofthe board : case of the international joint venture "Arman," Kazakhstan / Elina Oseichuk, Nada Kakabadse and Andrew Kakabadse -- Turkish chairmen : contrasting the art ofdialogue against the discipline for governance / Andrew Kakabadse, Nada Kakabadse and Orhan Yavuz -- Boards of steel : the role and contribution of the non-executive director (NED) / Nana Kakabadse ... [et al.] -- How do international joint venture (IJV) directors contribute to board effectiveness evidence from practice / Jelena Petrovic, Nada Kakabadse and Andrew Kakabadse -- The chairman of the board of directors : roleand contribution / Eleanor O'Higgins -- The recruitment and evaluationof boards of directors in China / Nada Kakabadse, Hong Yang and Richard Sanders -- The imperative of rapid adaptation to climate change : arethe lights on in the boardroom? / Malcolm McIntosh.

Does ever greater attention to governance protocol and legislation have any positive effect? No is the conclusion of Global Boards, a unique collection of well-researched, international contributions from world-renowned authors. Governance practice and board functioning is as varied as the span of cultures and values spanning the world. Study of boards in the UK, Belgium, Australia, China, Russia, Turkey, Serbia and Kazakhstan point to the substantive influence of local context. Thus, in order to realize global reach, being well-networked in both business andthe political communities isvital. Additionally being sensitive to local needs ensures the sustainable implementation of the corporation's vision. Global Boards emphasises that today's global directors must exercise shareholderdiscipline together with sensitive stakeholder influence. This book warns against the desire for one governance reality and, in contrast, provides guidance on how a diversity of strategic, policy andpersonal skills ensures for effective director performance, better guaranteeing continued wealth creation.
