How to Give Voice to Values in the Boardroom: Dr. Cynthia Clark Explains

Prof. Cynthia Clark, John W. Poduska Professor of Governance and Founding Director of the Harold S. Geneen Institute of Corporate Governance at Bentley University, shares insights from her acclaimed book Giving Voice to Values in the Boardroom. Dr. Cynthia Clark’s Giving Voice to Values in the Boardroom equips directors with a practical roadmap for acting on their ethics in the face of real boardroom pressures. Drawing on the Giving Voice to Values framework, it walks readers through core governance challenges such as strategy oversight, director independence, cyber risk, executive pay, and CEO succession, using realistic “board challenges” to surface tensions and trade-offs. By combining governance context, cases, and guided action planning, the book helps board members, committee chairs, and other governance professionals prepare what they will actually say and do when values, power, and performance collide.
