Evaluating corporate board cultures and decision making (Оценка корпоративных культур и принятие решения)
本文基于群体认知的三种类型,分析董事会决策动态,指出公司治理正从管理主义转向政治主义,并建议改革治理结构以加强绩效、战略、审计独立性和高管任命的透明度。
This paper relies on a trinity of menetypes of group knowing which captures the essential decision-making dynamics of board membership. Formal, corporate decision-making processes require higher commitments of time and cognitive energy of directors - certainly, the requirement is of non-executive directors to make more formal contributions to the political process that determines corporate commitment to appropriate courses of action. There is a fundamental shift from managerialism to politicism in the corporate dynamics of organization - a shift in menetype driving governance dynamics. This wholesale shift in orientation has accentuated personal and group values as key determinants of corporate efficacy. The paper proposes structural reforms to corporate/agency governance conventions, including a greater focus on performance and strategy, greater independence of more effective and extensive audit processes and a greater transparency in the nomination and remuneration of top-executive appointments.
