    Does CEO Pay Reflect Performance? Some Australian Evidence (1998)
    Oxford, UK and Boston, USA : Blackwell Publishers Ltd
    Corporate governance 6 (1998), S. 0

    Topics: Political Science , Economics
    Notes: We examine the relation between Australian CEO pay and accounting and share price performance indicators, as well as firm size, from 1987 to 1992 inclusive. Our results show no evidence of a linkage between CEO pay and performance. This finding is robust to the use of single year or pooled tests, as well as the specific identification of CEO changes. “Long window” analysis of the pay-performance relation yields similar results. Possible explanations include incomplete disclosure of CEO compensation, the influence of other claimholders (e.g., debtholders), the existence of alternative monitoring mechanisms and the extent to which CEO compensation is effectively deferred. However, subject to these possibilities, our results can be interpreted as consistent with allegations that Australian CEOs have had, by international standards, a relatively small proportion of total compensation “at risk”.

    The Impact of the Cadbury Code on Selection of Directors and Board Composition in UK Newly-quoted Companies, 1990–1994 (1997)
    Oxford, UK and Boston, USA : Blackwell Publishers Ltd
    Corporate governance 5 (1997), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1467-8683
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Political Science , Economics
    Notes: The publication in the UK of the Cadbury Report and its associated Code of Best Practice focused attention on the conduct and structure of boards in large companies. The Code suggested that greater financial accountability would be facilitated by increasing the number of non-executive directors, creating new sub-committees and ensuring that the power of the chair is limited. Surveys amongst FT100 companies show that their compliance with the Cadbury Code has been rapid and virtually complete (Bostock [1995], Cadbury [1995]); less attention has been paid to the compliance of small and medium-sized companies. The approach that is taken in this survey is to investigate the board structures chosen by these enterprises as they prepare for stock market listing. Companies are prepared for market with the advice of professional advisors who it is assumed have a reputational interest in the success of the issue; therefore, they advance corporate governance structures that satisfy potential investors’ expectations. Such companies are making their boards anew and should represent best-practice. This paper examines whether current practice in small and medium-sized companies conforms to the prescribed model for UK boards. It is concluded that the Cadbury Code is not the only model for emergent small to medium sized companies and that the market does not value its adoption in all cases.

    Motivating Creativity and Enhancing Innovation through Employee Suggestion System Technology (2001)
    Oxford, UK and Boston, USA : Blackwell Publishers Ltd
    Creativity and innovation management 10 (2001), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1467-8691

    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Research has found that employee suggestion systems are a useful way to obtain and utilize employees’ creative ideas. To be effective, employees must be motivated to think creatively and to participate in the suggestion system. Unfortunately, motivating employees to participate is a common weakness of suggestion systems. Motivating employees involves more than simply offering rewards to submitters if their suggestions are put to use. According to expectancy theory, rewards will only motivate behaviour if the rewards are valued, if they are closely linked to successful performance, and if employees believe that they can perform successfully. This paper applies expectancy theory to the problem of motivating employees to participate in a suggestion system. We describe suggestion system technology that will increase employees’ motivation to think creatively and participate in the system.

    Topics: Economics
    Notes: This paper describes strategic community management that can be implemented by large established companies through the creation of a variety of strategic business communities. The paper focuses in particular on the case of NTT DoCoMo, Inc., Japan’s largest mobile telecommunications carrier, which has utilized strategic community management principles in their efforts to cultivate and expand the mobile Internet market in Japan over roughly the past two years.This paper also deals with the development of an emerging mobile Internet market spawned by the creation of strategic communities supported by strategic communities which consist of informal in-house organizations and diverse strategic heterogeneous alliances with outside firms including customers, and elucidates strategic community management as an effective methodology aimed at strategic innovation conducted by major enterprises.

    Open Doors to Leading Projects: Your New Chance to Understand and Perform Project Leadership (2001)

    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Project management and project leadership are activities that inter-relate. However, a knowledge of the differences between the overlapping sets of activities can enhance the procedures and outcomes of projects. The differences are illustrated through a visual metaphor of seven doors that open to reveal different leadership and management spaces as a project progresses.

    From Creative Thinking to Organisational Learning via Systems Thinking? An Illustration of Critical Creativity (2001)
    Oxford, UK and Boston, USA : Blackwell Publishers Ltd
    Creativity and innovation management 10 (2001), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1467-8691
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Many creativity programmes are designed and delivered with minimal attention paid to reflection. This paper shares experience of a programme in which reflection played an integral role; consciously adopting a critical approach to creativity ensured this was the case. The paper introduces Peter Senge’s “five disciplines” as a conceptual framework guiding the reflective process after the workshop, and which prompted deeper inquiry into the relationships between the processes of creative thinking, systems thinking and organisational learning.

    Assessing Directors’ Core Competencies – the Case of the Mass Transit Railway Corporation, Hong Kong (1997)
    Oxford, UK and Boston, USA : Blackwell Publishers Ltd
    Corporate governance 5 (1997), S. 0

    Topics: Political Science , Economics
    Notes: In 1993 the Executive Board of the Mass Transit Railway Corporation (MTRC) in Hong Kong approved the implementation of a corporate wide manpower and succession planning process. Succession at executive director level was identified as a priority. It was recognised that it would be necessary to identify and assess skills appropriate to company ‘direction’ as distinct from ‘management’ in order to proceed with succession planning at director level and to identify director training and development needs.Two crucial questions emerged: was it possible to identify the core competencies that are required by executive directors? If so, could those competencies be measured and assessed objectively? The experiences of the MTRC in identifying director competencies and in designing, validating and implementing the assessment process during 1994 and 1995 suggests that they can. Their experience forms the basis of this paper.The relatively sparse literature on the identification of director-level competencies is discussed. The competencies identified by the MTRC are outlined. The development of assessment centres, which are widely used to assess core competencies in managerial and professional roles, is then explained. Finally, the experience of the MTRC in extending the use of assessment centres to appraise board-level governance rather than managerial competencies is described and conclusions drawn.
