6. Excellent versus Poor Boards of Directors Fortune magazine recently pinpointed some of the key attributes of some excellent and poor boards of directors. Source: Boyle, M. 2001.

Coca-Cola This feisty board isn’t afraid to make waves, nixing CEO’s Doug Daft’s plan to acquire Quaker Oats last year. Intel Its big-name directors regularly assess one another’s performance, a rarity in the boardroom. Pfizer This year the Wharton School named this board—packed with heavy hitters—the second best in the nation. Target The proof is in the performance. This unflashy board has presided over years of solid returns. Texas Instruments Deadly serious about good governance, TI’s board had near-perfect attendance in 2000. Hall of Shame Entrenched, clubby, blind to shareholder concerns: These boards just don’t get it. Advanced Micro Devices Talk about weak: This board slavishly kowtows to omnipotent founder/CEO Jerry Sanders. Archer Daniels Midland As the stock falls near ten-year lows, the family-controlled board twiddles its thumbs. Maxxam With loads of common and preferred stock, CEO/Chairman Charles Hurwitz has most of the voting power. Occidental Petroleum Its board pays CEO Ray Irani obscene amounts even as the company underperforms its peers. Warnaco This board, dominated by Chairman/CEO Linda Wachner, seems to exist solely to redefine excessive CEO pay.
