Conventional approaches to board governance have been unable to keep pace with the momentum of change, as well as the uncertainty and asymmetric competition that characterizes the 21st century. Adapt or Fail! A 5x5 Governance Framework for Boards of Directors provides practical ways boards can lead and accelerate adaptation, even in the face of extreme uncertainty and inevitable adversity. It pulls back the curtain on governance successes and failures. It highlights the critical questions every board should ask and the lessons worth learning if organizations are to successfully adapt.
The book describes the five essential powers common to all boards and explores how to use them. Whether for profit or not, large or small, public or private, all boards must conduct the business of the board itself; set direction and policy; approve key decisions and then prudently delegate; oversee the execution of direction within policy; and verify before trusting.
Written by two governance experts who have lived and breathed these issues, the book shows how boards can embed a systematic and disciplined process of continuous adaptation by detecting signals (external/internal); interpreting those signals; responding through experimentation and innovation; judging the effectiveness of the response; and then adapting as necessary. This is an indispensable resource for board members and trustees in both for-profit and non-profit organizations.

"Funston and Lukomnik have seen enough to know that boards can checklist themselves to oblivion. That's why, in this groundbreaking book, the two take readers below the superficial to the life force of corporate vitality, offering fresh insights on how directors can harness success." -Stephen Davis, Senior Fellow, Harvard Law School Program on Corporate Governance
"There has never been a time where the role of the corporate director has been under more scrutiny or when directors have faced more pressure. Directors have little time to make big decisions and their actions, or lack thereof, can have significant ramifications for all shareholders. In their book, Adapt or Fail!, Rick Funston and Jon Lukomnik have provided a new template for decision making in the board room. Their adaptive Governance Framework provides directors with an easy to follow guideline for assessing both threats and opportunities - in five clearly defined steps. As an experienced corporate director, I was immediately drawn to their logical and clear approach and look forward to introducing these disciplines to the boards I sit on. I predict Adapt or Fail! will become an essential tool for any board striving for excellence in today's fast paced, high stakes environment." -Nancy Lockhart, Corporate Director
"As Funston and Lukomnik point out, corporate executives and boards and their investors have seen massive change: Cultural, legislative, technological, demographic, geopolitical. The challenges boards face can seem overwhelming. This book is a most welcome, and above all, practical guide for board members that will make it easier for them to perform their most essential tasks of risk management, from CEO compensation and succession to asset allocation, shareholder engagement, and knowing what the right questions are and what to do if they don't get good answers. It is an indispensable resource." -Nell Minow, Vice Chair, ValueEdge Advisors
"Both Bart Madden's Value Creation Principles and my book Governance Reimagined provide systems-based frameworks for the continuous innovation necessary for organizations to thrive in the long run. The board of directors establishes the conditions for these frameworks to succeed. Rick Funston and Jon Lukomnik have taken their immense experience and insights in this same spirit and focused it specifically on the work that happens in the boardroom. This laser focus fills a critical gap. Where most governance writers focus on tick-the-box elements of board governance, Funston and Lukomnik get to the life of the board's work, which ultimately gives permission to the organization to thrive. Their work is important reading!" -David R. Koenig, President and Chief Executive Officer, The DCRO Risk Governance Institute, Author, Governance Reimagined: Organizational Design, Risk, and Value Creation and The Board Member's Guide to Risk
"Few business experts have the depth of knowledge and insight that comes from decades of board service, institutional investing, and ground-breaking research as Rick Funston and Jon Lukomnik. Their book provides corporate boards a clear framework designed to maximize the chances of making business decisions that succeed - the purpose of corporate governance - in an environment where there are more decisions to be made, increasing amounts of data with which to make them, and a diverse set of stakeholders who are harder to satisfy than ever before. The title of their book says it all: Adapt or Fail!" -Douglas K. Chia, President of Soundboard Governance and Senior Fellow at Rutgers Center for Corporate Law and Governance
"This is a terrific book for corporate directors. It is clever and thoughtful. And best of all, the stories recounted therein are worth the recall and provide superb insights into contemporary business culture." -Charles Elson, Edgar Woolard Chair in Corporate Governance (ret.) and Founding Director, Weinberg Center for Corporate Governance, University of Delaware
