Boards, Governance and Value Creation: The Human Side of Corporate Governance

2007 y.
Publisher: —
Description: What is the role of boards in corporate governance? How should they be structured in order to maximize value creation? This book looks at the role of boards in a variety of different countries and contexts, from small and medium-sized enterprises to large corporations. It explores the working style of boards and how they can best achieve their task expectations. Board effectiveness and value creation are shown to be the results of interactions between owners, managers, board members and other actors. Board behaviour is thus seen to be a result of strategizing, norms, board leadership, and the decision-making culture within the boardroom. Combining value creation, behavioural and ethical approaches to the study of boards, this work offers a systematic framework which will be of value to graduate students and researchers in the field of corporate social responsibility and business ethics.

Description: Amazon.comBob Dylan`s tour of Europe in May of 1966 has long been a point of fascination for his most dedicated fans, thanks mostly to the tapes of incendiary gigs that leaked out and were bootlegged over the years. Treasured tapes of the phenomenal show he gave in Manchester, England, on May 17, 1966, have been passed among fortunate collectors for decades, and the show has finally been officially released by Dylan`s record label as Live, 1966: The `Royal Albert Hall Concert.` Now those who`ve only attended the legendary Manchester gig in dreams can journey back to join C.P.

Bob Dylan: The Illustrated Biography (Classic Rare &, Unseen)

Publisher: —
Description: The images and text in this book chronicle the public life of a unique talent. Bob Dylan has written some of the most memorable popular songs of the twentieth century, as well as being a charismatic performer and cultural influence on succeeding generations of audiences and artists. Yet Dylan remains an enigma: a shy, retiring man who hardly speaks to audiences, yet now hosts a weekly radio show, a performer who, in his own words, is `mortified` to go out on stage, yet continues a punishing tour schedule as he heads towards his seventh decade because he believes it`s what he was born to do. Bob Dylan was born Robert Allen Zimmerman on 24th May 1941 in Duluth Minnesota. His early years were spent in a conventional and middle class Jewish household. In his teens, Dylan began to play and sing in local bands and when he left school his main ambition, as recorded in his high school yearbook was `to join Little Richard.` But it was folk, not rock `n` roll, which gave the young Dylan his… [detailed...]

As such an exalted figure, Dylan has been the subject of countless books and intricate scholarship considering various dimensions of both the man and his music.
