Evaluating the Performance of the Board
Few employees escape the annual or twice-yearly performance review.(0) ...G ... The answer is not a great number.And the smaller the company, the fewer checks there are on how well the directors are doing.Some of the largest companies formally assess the performance of their board, but very few new or growing companies have managed to get round to establishing any such procedure.
Many business experts believe, however, that it is important for all companies to review
the performance of the board.(8).....Another reason is that the board itself needs information on how well it is doing, just as much as other employees do.For the chief executive, appraisal of some sort is absolutely essential for his or her own sake and for the good of the company.Indeed, many of those who have reached this level remark on how lonely the job of chief executive is and how few opportunities they get to discuss issues relating to it.
There is some evidence to show that once smaller companies put a board appraisal process in place, they find this process relatively easy to operate.(9)..... Their counterparts in larger organizations, however, are often afraid that appraisals could be a challenge to their status.
So, how should companies assess their board? (10).....At a very basic level, this could simply mean getting all the directors to write down what they have achieved and how they can improve on it.At the other end of the scale is the full "360-degree" appraisal.Here, each director is appraised in a systematic manner by a combination of the chairman and fellow directors.
In the largest companies there are many methods for assessing the board.A number of such companies have self-assessment schemes.The chairman may meet each board member individually to ask how things are going, in a fairly informal way.The whole board might also meet to talk about its progress in open session.(11).....These might ask for people"s opinions on the board"s main tasks or on how well the committees are working.
Research indicates there has been some improvement in the way the appraisal of board members is conducted.(12)......The chairman will have been involved directly or indirectly in the appraisal of all members of the board.Whose job is it, then, to appraise the chairman?
A.It is often the case that the directors of such companies are even happy to receive criticism, as this can prevent them from making basic mistakes.
B.The rest of the workforce sees it as unfair if the directors are the only members of thecompany to escape appraisal.
C.These are encouraging as they put a limit on the power of the chairman to assess fellow directors.
D.Alternatively, questionnaires might be distributed to directors, forming the basis for future discussion.
E.One issue remains, however, when all the others have been dealt with.
F.It is generally agreed that it is the chairman"s responsibility to ensure the regular appraisal of each member of the board.
G.However, one wonders how many companies have in place a formal appraisal process for their board of directors.

2. Yet the implication that rapid change is a new phenomenon is again misleading. If you measure the time it takes for a technology to become widely diffused, today's experience does not seem unusual. Take the car. The basic patent for an internal-combustion engine capable of powering a car was fried in 1877. By the late 1920s—50 years later—over half of all American households owned a car.
3. The comparable dates for the computer axe harder to tie down, but the first big computer, based on vacuum valves, was built in 1946. The transistor—the first semiconductor device—was invented at Bell Laboratories in 1948. The first patent for an integrated circuit was filed in 1959. Now, in 1999-50 years after the first one was built—around half of American households own a computer. The pace of introduction has been similar to that of the car.
4. You have to cheat, choosing only the date for the personal computer, say(mid-1970s), or the internet (ditto) to make it seem much more rapid.
Comparing its diffusion among private users is, you might say, unfair to the computer, for that machine's main use is in businesses. On that measure, the best historical analogy is with electrification, and the spread of the electric dynamo into factories.
5. According to Paul David, a historian at Stanford University in California, the first electricity-generating stations had been installed in New York and London in 1881, but it was well into the 1920s before the dynamo became widely used and started to raise productivity. The adoption of the computer in business has also been slow, and failed to have any measurable impact on productivity until very recently.

That was before we entered the permissive period in education in which we decide it was all right not to push our children to achieve their best in school. The school and the educators made it easy for us. They taught that it was all right to be parents who take a let-alone policy. We stopped making our children do homework. We gave them calculators, turned on the television, left the teaching to the teachers and went on vacation.
Now teachers, faced with children who have been developing at their own pace for the past 15 years, are realizing we' ve made a terrible mistake. One such teacher is Sharon Klompus who says of her students--" so passive"--and wonders what has happened. Nothing is demanded of them, she believes. Television, says Klompus, contributes to children's passivity "We're talking about a generation of kids who' ve never been hurt or hungry. They have learned somebody will always do it for them, instead of saying ' go and look it up' , you tell them the answer. It takes greater energy to say no to a kid."
Yes it does. It takes energy and it takes work. It’s time for parents to end their vacation and come back to work. It’s time to take the car away, to turn the TV off, to tell them it hurts you more than them but it’s for their own good. It’s time to start telling them no again.
Children are becoming more inactive in study because ______.
A.they watch TV too often
B.they have done too much homework
C.they have to fulfil too many duties
D.teachers are too strict with them
