Corporate Governance
• Corporate governance is:– A relationship among stakeholders used to
determine and control the strategic direction and performance of organizations
– Concerned with making strategic decisions more effectively
– Used to establish order between a firm’s owners and its top-level managers whose interests may be in conflict

Internal Governance Mechanisms• Executive Compensation
– Use of salary, bonuses, and long-term incentives to align managers’ interests with shareholders’ interests
• Market for Corporate Control– Purchase of a firm that is
underperforming relative to industry rivals in order to improve its strategic competitiveness

Separation of Ownership andManagerial Control
• Basis of the Modern Corporation– Shareholders purchase stock, becoming residual
claimants– Shareholders reduce risk by holding diversified
portfolios– Professional managers are contracted to provide
decision making• Modern public corporation form leads to
efficient specialization of tasks:– Risk bearing by shareholders– Strategy development and decision making by
managers

Managerial Opportunism
• The seeking of self-interest with guile (cunning or deceit)
• Managerial opportunism is:– An attitude (inclination)– A set of behaviors (specific acts of self-
interest)• Managerial opportunism prevents the
maximization of shareholder wealth (the primary goal of owner/principals)

Agency Costs and Governance Mechanisms
• Principals may engage in monitoring behavior to assess the activities and decisions of managers– However, dispersed shareholding makes it
difficult and inefficient to monitor management’s behavior
• Boards of Directors have a fiduciary duty to shareholders to monitor management– However, Boards of Directors are often accused
of being lax in performing this function

• Large block shareholders have a strong incentive to monitor management closely:
– Their large stakes make it worth their while to spend time, effort and expense to monitor closely
– They may also obtain Board seats which enhances their ability to monitor effectively
• Financial institutions are legally forbidden from directly holding board seats
• The increasing influence of institutional owners (stock mutual funds and pension funds)
– Have the size (proxy voting power) and incentive (demand for returns to funds) to discipline ineffective top-level managers
– Can affect the firm’s choice of strategies• Shareholder activism:
– Shareholders can convene to discuss corporation’s direction– If a consensus exists, shareholders can vote as a block to elect their
candidates to the board– Proxy fights– There are limits on shareholder activism available to institutional
owners in responding to activists’ tactics

Governance MechanismsBoard of Directors
• Group of elected individuals that acts in the owners’ interests to formally monitor and control the firm’s top-level executives, has the power to:
– Direct the affairs of the organization– Punish and reward managers– Protect owners from managerial opportunism
• Composition of Boards:– Insiders: the firm’s CEO and other top-level managers– Related Outsiders: individuals uninvolved with day-to-day operations, but who
have a relationship with the firm– Outsiders: individuals who are independent of the firm’s day-to-day operations
and other relationships• Criticisms of Boards of Directors include:
– Too readily approve managers’ self-serving initiatives– Are exploited by managers with personal ties to board members– Are not vigilant enough in hiring and monitoring CEO behavior– Lack of agreement about the number of and most appropriate role of outside
directors• Enhancing the effectiveness of boards and directors:
– More diversity in the backgrounds of board members– Stronger internal management and accounting control systems– More formal processes to evaluate the board’s performance– Adopting a “lead director” role– Changes in compensation of directors

• Forms of compensation:– Salary, bonuses, long-term performance incentives, stock
awards, stock options
• Factors complicating executive compensation:– Strategic decisions by top-level managers are complex, non-
routine and affect the firm over an extended period– Other variables affecting the firm’s performance over time
• Limits on the effectiveness of executive compensation:– Unintended consequences of stock options– Firm performance not as important as firm size– Balance sheet not showing executive wealth– Options not expensed at the time they are awarded

Governance MechanismsMarket for Corporate Control
• Individuals and firms buy or take over undervalued corporations– Ineffective managers are usually replaced in such takeovers
• Threat of takeover may lead firm to operate more efficiently• Changes in regulations have made hostile takeovers difficult• Managerial defense tactics increase the costs of mounting a
takeover• Defense tactics may require:
– Asset restructuring– Changes in the financial structure of the firm– Shareholder approval
• Market for corporate control lacks the precision of internal governance mechanisms

Governance Mechanisms and Ethical Behavior (cont’d)
• Some observers believe that ethically responsible companies design and use governance mechanisms that serve all stakeholders’ interests
• Importance of maintaining ethical behavior is seen in the examples of Enron, WorldCom, HealthSouth and Ahold NV

Capital MarketCapital MarketStakeholdersStakeholders
It is important to serve the interests of the firm’s multiple stakeholder groups!
• Product market stakeholders (customers, suppliers and host communities) and organizational stakeholders may withdraw their support of the firm if their needs are not met, at least minimally
• Shareholders in this group are viewed as the most important stakeholder group
• The focus of governance mechanisms is to control managerial decisions to assure shareholder interests
• Interests of shareholders is served by the Board of Directors

Functional Structure for Cost Leadership Strategy
Notes: • Operations is the main function• Process engineering is emphasized rather than new product R&D• Relatively large centralized staff coordinates functions• Formalized procedures allow for emergence of a low-cost culture• Overall structure is mechanical; job roles are highly structured

26
Functional Structure for Differentiation Strategy
Notes:• Marketing is the main function for keeping track of new product ideas• New product R&D is emphasized• Most functions are decentralized, but R&D and marketing may have centralized staffs that work closely with each other• Formalization is limited so that new product ideas can emerge easily and change is more readily accomplished• Overall structure is organic; job roles are less structured

Related-Constrained Strategy
Notes• Structural integration devices create tight links among all divisions• Corporate office emphasizes centralized strategic planning, human resources, and marketing to foster cooperation between divisions• R&D is likely to be centralized•
• Rewards are subjective and tend to emphasize overall corporateperformance in addition to divisional performance
• Culture emphasizes cooperative sharing

Unrelated Strategy
Figure 11.7Figure 11.7
Notes• Corporate headquarters has a small staff• Finance and auditing are the most prominent functions in the headquarters office to manage cash flow and assure the accuracy of performance data coming from divisions
• The legal affairs function becomes important when the firm acquires or divests assets• Divisions are independent and separate for financial evaluation purposes• Divisions retain strategic control, but cash is managed by the corporate office• Divisions compete for corporate resources
