The simple answer is more—more time, independence, disclosure and transparency, financial literacy, governance, independent leadership, and willingness to say “no.” As a director, you have a responsibility to weigh fully all the available information about a company and your role on the board before you agree to serve. And once you sign on, you will be expected to serve in good faith, exercising the duties of loyalty and care. Just don't forget the duties of common sense, curiosity, and candor as well as the duty to communicate, to clean up old messes, to avoid conflicts of interest, and finally to deliver.
