EXCEPTIONALLY GOOD… Best on this topic that I’ve come across and a brilliant coverage of the state of the art”.

(HR Magazine’s Most Influential Practitioner)

LATEST RELEASE: My second book The Good Governance Guide to Boardroom Dynamics was released in April 2021.

It’s available to buy here.

This book is aimed at all those professionals who work in or around the boardroom:

  • Are you are a Chair, non-executive director, executive director, company secretary, board coach or consultant?
  • Do you want a primer on ‘behavioural governance’ and the psychology of how boards actually work?

In 2019 I published my first book called Boardroom Dynamics, a Chartered Governance Institute commissioned textbook.

It is a comprehensive 375 page tour around the why, what and how of the latest behavioural psychology in and around the boardroom.

In 2021, the 2nd Edition was published, updating a number of topics including virtual board meetings, diversity issues and stakeholder influences following the COVID-19 pandemic, Black Lives Matter and the rise of ESG in the boardroom.

Even though a textbook, it has been described by a number of buyers as ‘readable’ and received some very favourable reviews from practitioners.

The 2nd edition can only be purchased as an e-book the ICSA from the Chartered Governance Institute Bookshop page.

If you would prefer a physical copy, the 1st edition can be ordered in paperback from Amazon (currently for a slightly reduced price). Please click the image below:
