Corporate Governance And Corporate Illegality: The Effects Of Board Structure On Environmental Violations, Marie A. Mckendall, Carol M. Sanchez, Paul Sicilian Mar 1999

Corporate Governance And Corporate Illegality: The Effects Of Board Structure On Environmental Violations, Marie A. Mckendall, Carol M. Sanchez, Paul Sicilian

Peer Reviewed Articles

This paper examined the effects of corporate governance structures on the incidence of corporate illegality by analyzing the relationship between environmental violations and several dimensions of corporate board structure. Results demonstrated that the value of stock owned by corporate officers and directors was positively and significantly associated with serious environmental violations. Outsider dominance, joint CEO‐Chairpersons, social responsibility committees, and attorneys on boards were not significantly related to corporate illegal behavior. The control variables of size, industry profitability, firm profitability, and industry concentration were all significantly related to environmental violations. The findings involving board structure cast doubt on the efficacy of …

Road Map To Transformational Leadership, Asha Bhandarkar, Pritam Singh Mar 1999

Road Map To Transformational Leadership, Asha Bhandarkar, Pritam Singh

IIMB Management Review

The search for role models expresses not only the deep rooted desire to follow, but also the inherent desire to lead. The need for great heroes and transforming leaders like Gandhi and Mandela is felt much more strongly in the contemporary world. The model of leadership in existing literature has been used primarily to depict the process of managing rather than the process of transforming and leading. Asha Bhandarkar and Pritam Singh arrive at blueprints for leadership by studying the lives and work of transformational leaders

Extending The Effectiveness Of Service Mapping, John Bicheno, M R Gopalan, V S Mahesh Mar 1999

Extending The Effectiveness Of Service Mapping, John Bicheno, M R Gopalan, V S Mahesh

IIMB Management Review

In most organisations that offer either a service or a product service bundle to the market, much time is spent on resolving an apparent conflict of interests between achievement of external effectiveness and internal efficiencies in the preparation and delivery of service. Bicheno, Gopalan and Mahesh contend that this apparent conflict can be resolved to a great extent if due care is taken in the use of appropriate tools. They review existing service mapping tools and extensions like Information flow, the Kano model and Failsafing which can be successfully used with existing models. They also propose exploratory extensions using the …

Outbound Mileage, Vijay Padaki, M R Venkatesh Mar 1999

Outbound Mileage, Vijay Padaki, M R Venkatesh

IIMB Management Review

The Indian experience with Outbound Programmes has clearly been a mixed one.With the initial euphoria passing over,managements are beginning to wonder if management development is getting to be more and more like branded potato chips - puffed up and pricey but the same old stuff inside. Indeed there is every possibility of the Outbound Programme going the way of all other bandwagons: into the clearance sale shelves of the management supermarket. Padaki and Venkatesh attempt to demystify Outbound Programmes (OP) and provide guidelines to organisations contemplating OP, on how to prepare for a worthwhile OP experience, what to look for …

An Invitation To A Side Bet, Shiv Visvanathan Mar 1999

An Invitation To A Side Bet, Shiv Visvanathan

IIMB Management Review

With the grand egalitarian dreams of the 20th century having fizzled out, the world seems marching swiftly to marko-topia. The world of the market is often confused with the world of democracy. Shiv Visvanathan, of the Centre for the Study of Developing Societies, New Delhi, hauls the modern businessman over the coals for having abdicated his larger humanistic responsibilities. The corporate world must question its notion of justice and the bankruptcy of its moral imagination and repay its debts to the environment that has sustained it.

The Systems Approach To Analysing Supply Chains And Improving Their Performance, Edward Sweeney Mar 1999

The Systems Approach To Analysing Supply Chains And Improving Their Performance, Edward Sweeney

Conference papers

One critical weakness of traditional company-wide business improvement models, which are often based on systems thinking, is that the focus is largely on a company’s internal operations and business processes. As a result of the increasingly complex global supply chains of which companies are part, improving ones own business is no guarantee of success in today’s business environment. This paper describes an extension of traditional systems approaches beyond the operations of an individual company to the complete supply chain. The result is the
