Ebook: The Era of Global Business and Corporate Governance: Environment, Structure and Challenges

The after World War II businesses are creating new standards of social enhancement, education and research where the commanding force is the human enterprise--by far a better vehicle of progress than the state-supported developmental initiatives. For example, we are witnessing that the top 500 companies command the equivalent of more than 40% of the worldâs GNP, that employ less than one hundredth of the worldâs population, that seek employees âhappinessâ, that aim to rules of meritocracy and that operate globally. These companies result in a new societal status quo that necessitates an improved understanding of the modern era business management and its corporate governance. The goal of this book is to familiarize a broad range of students, professors, business executives and other interested parties with the cutting-edge trends and practices of todayâs managerial activities. This text aims to highlight the tools used by the global corporations by addressing the means that will make future managers successful in their corporate operations; additionally, it aims to pioneer a philosophy and an economic thinking showcasing the era of corporate governance and the need of self-actualization of its managers
