Synopsis

Theargest private airline in India went bankrupt, as did the bank that could not say no to its borrowers who defaulted on hugeoans. Could these disasters have been foreseen, if not averted? Would it have helped if the directors on the board had spoken up before the corporate failure? Inside the Boardroom explores the downfall of these companies and many more in theight of directors' behaviour and its impact on corporate governance. R. Gopalakrishnan and Tulsi Jayakumar believe that corporate success goes beyond having significant knowledge of accounting rules and governance regulations. They boldly assert that directors' behaviour in the boardroom isess rational than may be widely believed! Being human, directors' decisions are naturally subjective and prone to behavioural bias, especially when confronted with manifestations of power, passion and authority in the boardroom, or even a secret desire to be accepted by others. Hence, successful directors and boards need to be deep observers of human behaviour and boardroom dynamics because behavioural and cultural nuances are significant aspects in most incidents of mismanagementeading to governance failure. Lucidly described with a plethora of real events and insightful instances, Inside the Boardroom showcases the authors' experience with governance and boardroom behaviour. It brings toight misbehaviours in the boardroom, early warning signs of failing governance in companies and some magical mantras for CEOs and independent directors to prevent failures.
