CSC® The Directors' Handbook, 2017 Edition

Govern with Confidence

The Directors' Handbook, 2017 Edition, is the resource you need to successfully lead your company in a post-Sarbanes-Oxley environment. Concise, well-written, and published in user-friendly eBook format, the book discusses the evolving role of the director, presenting a detailed overview of the issues directors face in the wake of corporate scandals and heightened liability.

The Directors' Handbook offers insight on how to best handle executive compensation, hostile takeover attempts and proxy battles, and offers analysis of such vital issues as creating an audit committee charter, crisis management, and director and officer insurance. You will find the most recent information about majority (rather than plurality) voting for directors; staggered board repeals; best practices for handling restatement crises; and the political economy of corporations.
