Description

The Lucerne Board Management Model supports the Board of Directors (BoD) in successfully managing and changing the company limited by shares entrusted to it. It has proven its worth in companies of various sizes and industries and is now regarded as a benchmark. On the solid foundation of the revised Swiss company law as an example, the authors develop and link the four central action fields of the BoD. For only in an orchestrated interplay, Governance, Run the Business, Change the Business and Resources can develop to their full effect. In the Lucerne Board Management Model, integral risk and company-wide opportunity management are integrated in accordance with international standards (ISO 31000, ÖNORM 4900, COSO ERM). This practice manual also highlights the personal liability of the BoD and is therefore primarily aimed at active or future board members who want to set an example of best practice. It enables the Executive Board, opportunity and risk managers, internal and external auditors to discuss corporate development with the BoD at eye level, based on a unique, implementation-oriented board management model: The Lucerne Board Management Model.
