No more 'silent stooges'. Interview by Alexis Nolan.
Non-executive directors are becoming increasingly difficult to recruit, according to Sir William Wells, chair of the NHS Appointments Commission. He also warns that foundation trust governors face a stiff test in their ability to appoint non-execs and avoid 'favoured sons or daughters'. In an interview with SHJ, he also calls for a greater role for the commission in the development of non-execs.
