"Lecturing and writing about leadership is a significant part of my work as President & CEO of Leader to Leader Institute (formerly the Drucker Foundation for Nonprofit Management). For over eight years I have had the pleasure of serving on a board with Chairman Roger Weaver. Roger is one of the most accomplished, effective leaders and chairman of a board I have been privileged to work with. This is not easy with a high-powered group whose members themselves are very successful in leadership positions. Presented initially with board whose mission and function were unclear, Roger was able to build a smoothly working group and make board meetings a consistently positive and productive experience for all. Without one reservation, it is a privilege to recommend Roger Weaver as a thoughtful and effective leader and an exemplary consultant on board matters."
