"For a superb look at the board’s role in taking a company from good to great, I recommend the book Resisting Hostile Takeovers by [[Rita Ricardo-Campbell]] (Praeger Publishers, 1997). Ms. Ricardo-Campbell was a [[Gillette]] board member during the [[Colman Mockler]] era and provides a detailed account of **how a responsible board wrestled with the difficult and complex question of price versus value**." --- **Tags** -- [[quotes]], [[mergers-and-acquisitions]], [[reading-list]], [[investments]], [[corporate-finance]], **Source** -- [[202410171047 - B - Good to Great]]
