People - The Heart of Good Governance: A people-centred approach to Corporate Governance

By Robert Purse, Anil Kariwala, Graham Smedley

This book takes a practical and people-centred approach to effective (good) corporate governance. The core message contained in the book is that good corporate governance should be based around some fundamental (globally applicable) principles, rather than being focussed on compliance with legislation and regulation. It is written by three executive with a wealth of practical business experience that has been gained in a wide variety of business sectors. The book contains some original, survey-based, research material and it takes an international perspective rather than a UK, or US centred approach. It proposes that to be truly effective corporate governance needs to be more holistic and inclusive and suggests that there are valuable lessons to be learned from developments in Malaysia and Southern Africa. The book does not attempt to provide a template, indeed the authors argue that a standard template is unnecessary providing there is a principles-based approach to good corporate governance and those fundamental principles are universally recognised.
