This book will be of interest to upper level undergraduate and MBA students taking courses in corporate governance and leadership.
The companion website includes Instructor materials such as an Instructors Manual, PowerPoint Slides, Case Discussions, and Policy & Theory Discussions and Student Materials to help students study effectively and efficiently.
I think that this book is a very good book as a case study source. At the same time I would rather call the author's attention to the connection between the araised questions in each case and the theoretical explanation thereafter. I believe that this connection is not only unstructured, but it is verg vague in relation to the characters of the questions.
I use this text as a reminder to MBA dissertation students about key issues and the impact of CG on organizations and their stakeholders.
It has some useful prompts for further research and study.
A very interesting book in the area of Corporate Governance that covers this emerging area in a comprehensive and interesting manner.
This text contains a clear explanation of the key issues and a number of illustrative cases which are very helpful. The international assessments are particularly recommended to help students see beyond the UK context.
A good reading material to support student understanding of the concept
Added to the understanding of organizational principles and different issues at state level
A good and very broad introduction into the main areas of corporate governance with a strong root in corporate governance practice but at the same time with a solid theoretical foundation.
As with all other corporate governance textbooks I know, the link to the results of econometric research is clearly underdeveloped.
