I am a Carver believer and should I find a willing Board, I will order this guide for each Board member. It can be a bit cumbersome to figure out how this model works unless you have some help with the navigation. We were looking for a book which would serve as the orientation, and this book is a decent primer on the model.

There are other books on the model, but they are really quite lengthy and you have to ask if your Board members really want to read all the case studies, etc. We found this book to be a good orientation tool for new Board members. Every board, committee, or council should have at least a basic understanding of these concepts. While this isn't an 'end all' to board governance it can provide insights to better understanding and practices toward efficient governance. These were purchased for our board members the new ones to help them understand how our board is governed.

We have the whole set but had to purchase a few singles to replenish some that were missing. Very happy with the product.
