The Practice of Corporate Governance
All corporate entities, from the largest multinational conglomerate to the smallest tennis club, need effective governance.Some features of corporate governance are basic, common to all corporate entities: every governing body needs to think strategically and set policies to supervise ongoing management activities to ensure the entity is financially viable and is achieving its objectives. Every corporate entity has a governing body, whether it is called a board of directors, a committee, a council, or anything else.Many people, when appointed to the governing body of an organisation, have little idea of what to expect and what is expected of them.Even those with board-level experience find that the culture and leadership style of other governing bodies differ.The aim of this book is to help them understand and improve their contribution to the organisation and governing body they serve.The book is a simple guide to the work of every board member. Each chapter concludes with a worksheet, which enables readers to apply the ideas in that chapter to their own organisation.On completing the book, readers will have a detailed analysis of the governance of their own organisation. Effective governance improves performance and ensures long-term success.This book offers a straightforward guide to the fundamental work of governing bodies and the people who serve on them.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of global governance?
Global governance has the advantage of promoting cooperation and coordination among countries to address global challenges such as climate change, pandemics, and terrorism. It can help establish common standards and regulations to ensure a level playing field for all nations. However, one disadvantage is that it can sometimes infringe on national sovereignty and limit a country's ability to make independent decisions. Additionally, global governance structures can be slow-moving and bureaucratic, making it difficult to respond quickly to emerging issues.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of authoritarian governance?
Authoritarian governance can lead to quick decision-making and implementation of policies, as power is concentrated in the hands of a few individuals. This can sometimes result in stability and efficiency in governance. However, the lack of checks and balances in authoritarian systems can lead to abuse of power, suppression of dissent, and limited political freedoms for citizens. Additionally, authoritarian regimes often struggle with legitimacy and can face challenges in fostering long-term economic and social development.

What forms of governance existed in the Neolithic (Stone Age)?
In the Neolithic period, forms of governance were typically based on kinship and tribal structures. Leadership was often held by elders or individuals with specialized skills, such as hunting or farming. Decision-making was likely based on consensus within the community, with leaders acting as mediators and arbitrators. As societies became more complex, some Neolithic communities may have developed more centralized forms of governance, with leaders or councils holding authority over larger groups of people.

Pandemic Governance : Learning from COVID and Future Pathways
This book attempts to analyze the issues raised by the chronicity of the Covid pandemic and its governance.The author analyzes the information resources mobilized to combat the pandemic in industrialized countries and pays particular attention to the operational mechanisms.The analysis seeks to clarify the modalities of operation of the crisis system management, while at the same time looking at the decision-making mechanisms.The main lines of analysis retained are: the piloting and management of the crisis, the markets for ordering protective equipment and vaccine, the hospital organization and the prevention campaign, and the costs and the methods of financing.Finally, the author asks whether it might not therefore be appropriate to rethink the organization of the pandemic’s governance and if health crisis governance should be opened up more to deal with societal challenges.This organization is too complex and suffers both from a certain heaviness and from a lack of resources, which are detrimental to its proper functioning.It should first and foremost be open to people in the field whose absence weighs heavily on the organization of the response to the pandemic.It should also be open to other specialties, even if they seem far removed from public health and medicine, if they are useful to the government in guiding its actions. Prof. Post-Dr. Walter Amedzro St-Hilaire is the author of more than 20 books and around 40 scientific articles.His specialization areas include portfolio management, project management, entrepreneurship policies, corporate and technology governance, business technology, strategic management, business economics, risk management, economic infrastructures, public administration, international development, and applied economics.He has taught at various universities in Canada and the USA.He has served as Chief Resources Economist and Principal Officer of Procurement Operations for UEB United European Bank and as a Technical Advisor on Economic Strategies and Policy Development for the World Bank.He is also a project economics and financial business expert for several institutions and international organizations.
