Change happens so fast today that a company must be able to react long before it is obvious that it is necessary. This booklet is about how boards add value in times of radical change. If you optimize your business based on old rules, you run the risk of not only performing poorly in the current season but of becoming irrelevant in the coming season.

These are conditions that boards and executive teams face as they chart their strategic journeys. This booklet is a practitioners’ guide on how you navigate in such times and how boards can drive continuous reinvention. This is a leadership moment
