Last week a press release came across my desk announcing the上周的一份新闻稿中遇到我的办公桌公布 IAB IAB的 Elects 10 New Board Members.选出10个新的董事会成员。

It piqued my interest.它piqued我的利益。 After all, I’m the type of individual who likes to keep up with old colleagues.毕竟，我的类型个别谁喜欢保持与老同事。 You know, do the networking thing and “don’t burn any bridges.” And I did notice a few familiar names.你也知道，这样做网络的事情， “不要烧任何桥梁。 ”我没有通知几个熟悉的名字。 Riley McDonough from WebMD for example.赖利麦克唐纳从webmd例如。

But what really made me laugh, I do that a lot when the IAB and PwC issue their Internet advertising figures, was not who the newly elected members are, but the number of Board members.但真正令我笑，我这样做了很多时， IAB的和预委会的问题，他们的互联网广告的数字，是不是谁是新当选的成员，但人数的董事会成员。 It now stands at a larger than life 33.现在站在一个大于生活33 。

“According to A Snapshot of America’s Nonprofit Boards, published by the “据快照美国的非营利议会，所发表的 National Center for Nonprofit Boards代表National Center for非营利议会 , the average number of board meetings per year is eight, the majority of boards have meetings lasting two hours or less, and the average board member attendance is 71 percent.” ，平均数目董事会会议每年八，大多数议会会议，持久的两小时或更少，平均董事会成员出席是71 ％ “ 。

Talk about bloated and ineffective.谈谈臃肿的和无效的。 Anybody know how long it takes to hold an IAB Board meeting with 33 members?任何人知道需要多久才能举行一次IAB的董事会会议，与由33名成员组成？
How can the 300 leading interactive companies who are members of the IAB, let the Board get so bloated?如何能300领先的互动公司，谁是会员的IAB的，让董事会这么臃肿？ Hard to fathom.难以量度。
