D. K. Light, K. S. Pushor
Beaver's Pond Press, 2002
Fantastic Information
Into the Boardroom is a quick, easy read with lots of practical advice. For example, my charitable contributions were always random and small, but the advice of picking one organization and making a difference is great. I will also study their annual reports to check out the board members before I send the check. I borrowed this book from a friend and found it so empowering that I ordered my ...

Icarus in the Boardroom: The Fundamental Flaws in Corporate America and Where They Came From5 reviews
Oxford University Press, USA, 2005
A Superb Book on Corporate Scandals
This ambitious book takes on the "big picture" questions about the recent wave of corporate scandals: the increase in risk taking, the complexity of the modern corporation, and the limitations on shareholder governance. It offers intelligent advice for regulators, and warns average investors about the most extraordinary risks.
In my judgment, this book is a must read for anyone who followed ...

Einstein in the Boardroom: Moving Beyond Intellectual Capital to I-Stuff3 reviews
Suzanne S. Harrison, Patrick H. Sullivan
Wiley, 2006
Valuable resource for today's business world
What I found most helpful was that Einstein in the Boardroom featured multiple case studies around commercializing IP with a rare peek behind the scenes of how companies are doing business in this area today. For example, there is an entire chapter about the dramatic culture change that occurred at P&G that has led to the company being "open for business" through its Connect + Develop ...

Jinx Melia
St Martins Mass Market Paper, 1989
Feel left out of the action? Here's how to get IN !!
This book is one of those books that changed the way I saw things--forever! There is certainly a way for women to MAKE IT in a man's world--just understand and use THEIR rules, because that's the only way they will play--and it is their turf. Don't like the fact that that's how the world is? Well, ok, you can argue that. But if you want to get ahead, KNOW THEIR RULES so you can play the ...
