"The Handbook of Board Governance provides comprehensive coverage of all topics in corporate governance by subject matter experts. The chapter authors are a combination of practitioners (directors, management, advisors) and academics. The practitioners will bring practical experience and the academics will bring rigor and proximity to the literature. Topics covered include: value creation and the strategic role of the Board; risk governance and the oversight by the board; board composition and diversity; role of the board chair; blindspots and trendspotting in the boardroom; audit committee effectiveness; compensation committee effectiveness; director compensation; CEO succession planning; shareholder accountability and activism; corporate social responsibility and a slew of others. This second edition is needed as there has been about a 40-50% change in content since the publication date of mid 2016 for The Handbook, especially in the areas of climate change, cyber-security, and recent tax changes in Washington that will impact executive pay"--
