Get it wrong and, very quickly, you’ve got a battle on the board. Working in sustained harmony towards a common goal can be a tall order for many trustees.

It includes: • Understanding the trustee role • Working with fellow trustees and the CEO • Compliance and regulation • Dealing with information and understanding the money • The psychology of decision-making • Managing risk and handling crisis So, if you are a trustee or about to become one, you will benefit from the insights and hard-won wisdom distilled in this book.
