The Corporate Director`s and Officer`s Practical Guide: Managing Ethically and Reporting Clearly

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: The Corporate Directors and Officers Guide Prologue In the summer of 2002 confidence in corporations, banks, capital markets, financial institutions and business professionals in general, has been shaken to its very core. The collapse of companies such as WorldCom and Enron, and the restatement of earnings by such pillars of corporate success as AOL and IBM, has created suspicion and worry within the financial markets. Damage control and developing new prevention initiatives have become the tasks of nearly everyone involved within corporate America, including the FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board), SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission), NYSE (New York Stock Exchange) and the US Congress. The overwhelming reaction has been for more regulation and more policing. Many good corporations are keeping a low profile, being careful not to incur collateral damage. This crisis has inflicted significant damage to the USA and world financial markets not to mention… [detailed...]

The Corporate Eye: Photography and the Rationalization of American Commercial Culture, 1884-1929 (Studies in Industry and Society)

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In the late nineteenth century, corporate managers began to rely on photography for everything from motion studies to employee selection to advertising. This practice gave rise to many features of modern industry familiar to us today: consulting, `scientific` approaches to business practice, illustrated advertising, and the use of applied psychology. In this imaginative study, Elspeth H. Brown examines the intersection of photography as a mass technology with corporate concerns about efficiency in the Progressive period. Discussing, among others, the work of Frederick W. Taylor, Eadweard Muybridge, Frank Gilbreth, and Lewis Hine, Brown explores this intersection through a variety of examples, including racial discrimination in hiring, the problem of photographic realism, and the gendered assumptions at work in the origins of modern marketing. She concludes that the goal uniting the various forms and applications of photographic production in that era was the increased… [detailed...]

The Corporate Governance of Subsidiaries in Multinational Corporations

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The corporate governance of subsidiaries in multinational groups of companies has become increasingly important for managers and researchers, particularly through the developments around classical corporate governance in the last years. This book investigates for the first time comprehensively a topic, which research has addressed only sporadically so far. It reviews established theories and empirical findings from classical corporate governance, and applies them to subsidiaries, thereby describing and delineating the topic and deducing the availability and efficiency of governance mechanisms for subsidiaries. A dataset on multinational groups, surveyed at IMD International, is employed to test hypotheses from the theoretical analysis, and the findings are combined with those from a series of executive interviews. The core result is that mechanisms of classical corporate governance are, by and large, unavailable or inefficient for subsidiaries, and alternative solutions are employed… [detailed...]

The Corporate Shaman: A Business Fable

Publisher: —
Description: Shaman -- a Siberian word for `one who sees in the dark` -- refers to healers who for over 40,000 years have entered an altered state of mind at will and journeyed to other worlds, using the power, wisdom, and energies of those worlds to create positive change in people and the environments in which they live. Since shamanic practices are aimed at healing individuals and since business organizations are nothing more than groups of individuals, it follows that these powerful methods are successful when used to heal and restore spirit to businesses. Out of this idea emerges the corporate shaman, a consultant who recognizes the business as organism, not machine, and reestablishes healthy internal environments in corporations. PRIMETEC is a midsize company in crisis. Without realizing that he is a major part of the problem, CEO Leon King is pointing the finger at his executives, managers, and just about everyone else. As a result, the company`s executives are caught in a… [detailed...]

The Corporation As Anomaly

Publisher: —
Description: The marginalist theory of the corporation or firm, whose characteristics were formally developed in the 1930s, represents a major change in the development of traditional economic theory. In this book, Professor Schrader, a philosopher of economics, discusses the rise of the marginalist conception of the firm in the context of economic thought over the past two centuries, and explains why economists continue to defend a theory with demonstrable shortcomings: the marginalist view of the firm retains itssupport not through any comparative advantage in empirical or predictive power, but by virtue of its being a part of the predominant marginalist economic program. The clear problems that beset the marginalist approach to the firm signal a general dilemma for economic theory as a whole. Although economists generally remain committed to both a methodological individualism and a preference for non-intentional coordination of economic endeavor, Schrader observes that the modern… [detailed...]

The Corporation As Family: The Gendering of Corporate Welfare, 1890 to 1930 (Luther Hartwell Hodges Series on Business, Society, and the State (Ppaerback))

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: The beginning of the twentieth century witnessed a remarkable growth of corporate welfare programs in American industry. By the mid-1920s, 80 percent of the nation`s largest companies--firms including DuPont, International Harvester, and Metropolitan Life Insurance--engaged in some form of welfare work. Programs were implemented to achieve goals that ranged from improving basic workplace conditions, to providing educational, recreational, and social opportunities for workers and their families, to establishing savings and insurance plans. Employing the critical lens of gender analysis, Nikki Mandell offers an innovative perspective on the development of corporate welfare. She argues that its advocates sought to build a new relationship between labor and management by recasting the modern corporation as a Victorian family. Employers assumed the authoritative position of fathers, assigned their employees the subordinate role of children, and hired male and female welfare managers to… [detailed...]

Eminent Canadian law professor and legal theorist Joel Bakan contends that today`s corporation is a pathological institution a dangerous possessor of the great power it wields over people and societies. In this revolutionary assessment of the history, character, and globalization of the modern business corporation, Bakan backs his premise with the following observations: The corporation`s legally defined mandate is to pursue relentlessly and without exception its own economic self-interest, regardless of the harmful consequences it might cause to others. The corporation`s unbridled sef-interest victimizes individuals, society, and, when it goes awry, even shareholders and can cause corporations to self-destruct, as recent Wall Street scandals reveal.

MacDougall explores the relations between photographic images and the human body--the body of the viewer and the body behind the camera as well as the body as seen in ethnography, cinema, and photography. In a landmark essay, he discusses the need for a new field of social aesthetics, further elaborated in his reflections on filming at an elite boys` school in northern India. The theme of the school is taken up as well in his discussion of fiction and nonfiction films of childhood. The book`s final section presents a radical view of the history of visual anthropology as a maverick anthropological practice that was always at odds… [detailed...]
