Over the past years, we have heard and read plenty about how executives should behave more responsibly in the light of corporate governance. Despite all these efforts, many implementations of corporate governance provide no protection from potentially catastrophic ethical failures. This book emphasizes the introduction of a new corporate governance blueprint for addressing these concerns in a more authentic, organic and holistic way. It is a roadmap toward a high-performance ethical culture. By way of this innovative system, Dr. Hubert Rampersad and Saleh Hussain, MBA, are launching a revolutionary concept that actively has human capital embedded in corporate governance in a manner that creates a stable basis for the personnel's trustworthiness, integrity, and engagement and ethical corporate excellence. Featuring numerous case examples and practical tools and exercises, this book will help the reader learn to: Develop, implement, and cultivate authentic personal governance and corporate governance effectively Create conditions for sustainable corporate governance Increase their personal effectiveness Develop their personal integrity effectively and become a better human being Develop ethical personal leadership Develop a highly engaged workforce, based on high ethical standards Create a high-performance culture and enhance the competitiveness of their organization Create conditions for an organizational climate marked by self-guidance, creativity, passion, and ethical behavior Develop a culture in which personal integrity and business ethics is a way of life

This sixth peer review of the OECD Principles of Corporate Governance analyses the corporate governance framework and practices relating to corporate risk management, in the private sector and in state-owned enterprises. The review covers 26 jurisdictions and is based on a general survey of all participating jurisdictions in December 2012, as well as an in-depth review of corporate risk management in Norway, Singapore and Switzerland. The report finds that while risk-taking is a fundamental driving force in business and entrepreneurship, the cost of risk management failures is often underestim

Governance beschaeftigt sich mit der Steuerung komplexer Systeme, stuetzt sich auf systemisches Denken und ist zugleich strukturierend und handlungsorientiert. Das Zusammenspiel von struktureller und praktischer Governance ergibt eine bessere Performance der jeweiligen Systeme. Dieses Glossar versteht sich als kompaktes Nachschlagewerk, das klare Definitionen von bisher unscharf umrissenen Begrifflichkeiten aus den Themenfeldern rund um Governance bietet und damit einen essentiellen Beitrag zur Begriffsbildung innerhalb des wissenschaftlichen Diskurses leistet. Kurze, leicht verstaendliche Erk

This e-book addresses interesting aspects of corruption. Corruption has been a significant public issue in most developing countries in the post-colonial era. In the past decade it has arguably become the most prominent concern of international institutions such as the World Bank. This concern has been shared by policy-makers and the public within emerging economies. Its significance in Indian public life, for example, can be gauged by the extent of the unique citizens' movement which spread to the length and breadth of the country in the past few years, inviting diverse participation

Die Vereinten Nationen sind heute keine rein zwischenstaatliche Organisation mehr. Nichtstaatliche Akteure wie Nichtregierungsorganisationen und Unternehmen werden zunehmend an den dort stattfindenden Prozessen der Normsetzung, -umsetzung und -durchsetzung beteiligt. Das Lehrbuch führt in die Arbeit der UN ein und trägt dem Einzug von Global Governance in die Organisation Rechnung, indem es einen Analyserahmen zur Untersuchung neuer Modi globalen Regierens entwickelt und diesen auf fünf ausgewählte Sachbereiche (Friedenssicherung, Rüstungskontrolle und Abrüstung, Menschenrechtsschutz, Entwicklungspolitik und Umweltpolitik) anwendet. Der Inhalt Die Vereinten Nationen als Friedensorganisation.- Die Vereinten Nationen im 20. Jahrhundert.- Friedenssicherung.- Rüstungskontrolle und Abrüstung.- Menschenrechte.- Entwicklungspolitik.- Umwelt. Die Zielgruppen - Studierende und Lehrende der Politikwissenschaft, der Internationalen Beziehungen und der Friedens- und Konfliktforschung - UN-ForscherInnen - globale EntscheidungsträgerInnen Die Autorinnen Tanja Brühl ist Professorin für Politikwissenschaft mit dem Schwerpunkt Internationale Institutionen und Friedensprozesse an der Goethe-Universität Frankfurt am Main. Elvira Rosert ist wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin an der Professur für Internationale Institutionen und Friedensprozesse an der Goethe-Universität Frankfurt am Main sowie im Programmbereich Sicherheits- und Weltordnungspolitik von Staaten an der Hessischen Stiftung Friedens- und Konfliktforschung

Unter dem Leitbegriff 'Governance von Arbeit' analysieren die AutorInnen Veränderungen und Kontinuitäten in Bezug auf die Gestaltung von Arbeitsbedingungen und Karriereentwicklung, Entlohnung und Interessenvertretung, wie auch Institutionen der Reproduktion (Berufsbildung, Familie) in Deutschland. Übergreifende These ist, dass sich alte und neue Institutionen im Sinne veränderter Komplementaritäten verbinden und sowohl individuelle als auch kollektive Akteure veranlassen, z.T. neue, eigene Bewältigungs- und Entlastungsstrategien zu entwickeln. Die sozialen Folgen dieser Entwicklung werden als 'bipolare Heterogenisierung' skizziert, d.h. dass jenseits des traditionellen Kerns, der nach wie vor durch Normalarbeitsverhältnis, Normalbiographie und Normalfamilie geprägt ist, eine zunehmende Polarisierung der Arbeits- und Lebensbedingungen in Richtung Privilegierung und Prekarisierung zu erkennen ist. PD Dr. Irene Dingeldey und Dr. André Holtrup sind Forschungsleiter am Institut Arbeit und Wirtschaft der Universität Bremen.Dr. Günter Warsewa ist Direktor des Instituts.

"Despite a centralized formal structure, Chinese politics and policy-making have long been marked by substantial degrees of regional and local variation and experimentation. These trends have, if anything, intensified as China's reform matures. Though often remarked upon, the precise contours of policy formation, diffusion, and implementation have not previously been systematically described, let alone satisfactorily explained. Based on extensive fieldwork, this book explores how policies diffuse across China today, the mechanisms through which local governments actually arrive at specific solutions, and the implications for China's political development and stability in the years ahead. The chapters examine how local-level institutions solve governance challenges, such as rural development, enterprise reform, social service provision, and how to deal with poor levels of transparency. Focusing on diverse policy areas that include education spending, state-owned enterprise reform, and house churches, the contributors all address the same overarching question: how do local policymakers innovate in each issue area to address a governance challenges and how, if at all, do these innovations diffuse into national politics. As a study of local governance in China today, this book will appeal to both students and scholars of Chinese politics, comparative politics, governance and development studies, and also to policy-makers interested in authoritarianism and governance"--
