Abstract

Purpose: This paper is devoted to the eff ectiveness of corporate boards. Its aim is to present the board models found in European companies and to propose changes that would lead to better performance of Polish corporate boards. Approach: The article presents an analysis of European corporate board models, as well as their advantages and disadvantages. Based on this analysis, the author pointed out possible directions of change in the Polish two-tier board model. Implications: The author suggests that the introduction of an optional model, whereby the shareholders can choose between the one-tier board model (board of directors) and the two-tier board model (supervisory board and management board), would enable better use of the social and intellectual capital present in the corporate boards of Polish companies.
