Abstract

Some boards – and in particular their non-executive members – seem to be so concerned with avoiding risks that they are instinctively wary of new developments. At times some directors can appear risk-averse, negative and overly protective of the status-quo. Where once board members were mainly concerned with the growth business, today governance is often largely about conformance and compliance.
