Description
Taking Back the Boardroom is a comprehensive, practical guide for corporate directors and senior executives committed to understanding and improving corporate governance at management and boardroom level. In the wake of the Asian Crisis, it calls upon shareholders, directors and executives to assume accountability for corporate management, and highlights the need for a better, more responsible approach.
Drawing on case studies from around the world, the author analyses a variety of corporate scenarios, inviting his readers to participate by opening up pertinent questions for self-appraisal and discussion, thus allowing his readers an objective view of their own corporate experiences.
Phillip Phan, Ph.D., has written this book with the aim of raising standards of corporate governance practice not only in the Asia- Pacific region, but across the world. According to current theory, only when high standards are achieved will countries be able to avoid future economic meltdowns of the kind witnessed by Asian countries in the twilight years of the 20th century.
