Sinopsis

As a Chinese proverb says 'The fish rots from the head' and so it is with businesses and other organisations - the buck starts and stops in the boardroom. This third edition of Bob Garratt'sbestselling book that highlights the importance of effectivecorporate governance has been extensively updated following the corporate scandals of the early 2000s - Enron, WorldCom, Tyco - and the abysmal boardroom standards that the recent credit crunch and ensuing global financial crisis brought to light. 
 
This new edition builds on the Learning Board model developed by the author and now widely used internationally by corporations and public sector organisations such as the NHS. The result is a thought-provoking and highly practical book that will be invaluable to all those with responsibility for corporate governance - and also those who subject them to scrutiny.
 
What Sir Adrian Cadbury, whose committee's groundbreaking report on corporate governance was published nearly twenty years ago, said about the first edition remains as true today as ever:'No director can afford to ignore this book'.

    Per Wimmer is equally known as a global financier, philanthropist, adventurer and explorer. Today, Per owns and runs his own investment bank, Wimmer Financial, which he founded in 2007. He has also supported numerous charities financially with a particular view to inspiring children to live out their dreams. His penchant for exploration and adventure has taken him to 85 countries, a world landspeed record attempt, crossing the USA on a Harley-Davidson motorbike, living with the Indians of the Amazon Forest, skydiving over Mount Everest - and soon to be the first Dane private citizen to fly into space via Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic.
     
     This is the first volume in the autobiography of a person who a commentator described as "a true Indiana Jones meets 007 James Bond". Per Wimmer's life story is far from ordinary and very much driven by the desire to push boundaries. This first volume covers Per's formative years, his growing fascination for adventure, travel and space, and the growth of his career in international finance, culminating in the founding of Wimmer Financial.
