      The answer to the elusive ED question "how do I build a great partnership with my board?" With 6 principles the author provides a framework for developing an effective board. The book shares practical examples of why some boards succeed and some boards fail with expert advice for ultimately succeeding as a Board/ED team. I loved how it cut away all the drama and noise on the topic of board development. Thank you Jonathan for such a timely resource!
