| Summary: | The aim of the paper is to identify exactly how members of Polish supervisory boards define an effective
supervisory board, including their views on which spheres should display such efficacy and what
determinants influence a board’s effectiveness. Research materials were collected through interviews
with thirty–four respondents, members of the supervisory boards of twenty–seven companies listed
on the WSE among the top forty in terms of capitalization in 2011. Research results indicate that the
efficacy of supervisory board activity should make its appearance in the spheres of supervision and
cooperation with the management board. According to the interviewed board members, the main factor
that determines a board’s effectiveness is a make-up ensuring diversity of competencies of its members,
their independence and curiosity, and skills at getting information for the board. Moreover, it facilitates
the structuring of work by establishing board committees. Board members’ interest in a company and
their involvement in its problems were also included in the set of determinants for board effectiveness by
the respondents. Analysis of participant opinions and views received through the research also indicates
the key importance of shareholders for board efficacy. |
