Some of the worst corporate meltdowns over the past sixty years can be traced to passive directors who favored operational shortcuts over quality growth strategies. Thinking primarily about placating institutional investors, selective stockholders, proxy advisors, and corporate management, these inattentive and deferential board members have relied on short-term share price increases to sustain their companies long term. Driven by a desire for prosperity, not posterity, these actions can doom any company. In The Activist Director, attorney Ira M. Millstein looks back at fifty years of counseling companies, nonprofits, and governments to actively govern their corporations and constituencies. From the threat of bankruptcy and the ConEd blackout of 1970s New York City, to the meltdown of Drexel Burnham Lambert in the late 1980s, to the turnaround of General Motors in the mid-1990s, Millstein takes readers into the boardrooms of several of the greatest catastrophes and success stories of America's best-known corporations. His solution lies at the top: a new breed of activist directors who partner with management and reject short-term outlooks, plan a future based on growth and innovation, and take responsibility for corporate organization, strategy, and efficiency. What questions should we ask of potential board members and how do we know they'll be active? Millstein offers pragmatic suggestions for recruiting activist directors to the boardroom to secure the future of the corporation.Binding Type: Paperback

Not sticky

Not sticky. Didn't notice white cast. Pleasant, light smell that quickly disappeared after application.

Easy to use, so portable and goes on pretty clear!
Size: 1 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Baby Mineral Sunscreen Stick - 50 SPF
I love so many things about this sunscreen- it’s super portable and easy to toss in my diaper bag. It feels amazing on the skin, I felt like I had just applied a rich lotion to the areas where the sunscreen was applied and I also loved that it didn’t leave my kids looking like a ghost. However, since it does apply clear when it’s rubbed in be really careful to not miss spots. It didn’t “spread” as much as some of the other sunscreens we’ve used (I’m sure because it’s a stick not a liquid), but I have a VERY sensitive toddler that ended up looking like a tiger between the stripes of sunscreen. You can tell it WORKS, the area where the sunscreen is was completely white and the missed areas were bright red. Just be aware of that potential user error and you’ll love this product!

Worst smell ever
Smells horrible. I can’t even blame the DHA because I have used Devoted Creations body moisturizer with DHA and it smelled wonderful. I used this once and threw it out.
