Abstract

This teaching case, Carefree in Play, focuses on the behavior of a corporate board during a control contest, a time of potentially acute conflict between management and shareholders. It illustrates how a board may be subverted and lays the groundwork for discussion of what should be done to ensure the effective discharge of director responsibilities.
