Her willingness to stay engaged and in productive mode helps me communicate well with the whole of our board even when times are a bit tough.
Talk about testing the mettle of our governance systems. These times are likely to reveal the real strengths and weaknesses of our boards. Will they panic, ignore, or move forward to help in unexpected ways?
