A man of deep passion and intensity, George Karl earned his bad boy reputation while playing at the University of North Carolina, a rap that continued through the five years he spent with the San Antonio Spurs - and long after he stopped playing. Karl's beery nights, fistfights, and barking followed him into a 35-year coaching career. In a game defined by big stakes and bigger egos, rabid fans and an unforgiving media, Karl was hired and fired a dozen times.

The Effective Board Member: What Every Board Member Should Know is a transformational tale of the journey to boardroom effectiveness. It combines Karl's (The Governor's) knowledge and experience both of governance in an international context and an initial study of human behavior. Using four of the 12 characters from the governance forum Zoo, The Governor's latest book consolidates his years of teaching on governance, strategy and leadership in an innovative way that is sure to engage experienced and new board members alike.
