Dear colleagues and friends
Happy new year to you all. Please distribute this invitiation to phd students and doctoral students that may have an interest in attending the EDEN doctoral seminar on corporate governance. This is a course about boards and corporate governance from strategic management, entrepreneurship and organizational behaviour perspectives. The understanding of value creation and the human side will be focused . The objective is to let the students explore and be a part of a stream of corporate governance research that is rooted in management theories and approaches. We will in the course introduce, explore and discuss topics, theories and methods, and we will challenge dominant concepts and wisdom about boards and corporate governance.
Topics include board processes and team dynamics, board leadership, interactions and influences inside and outside the boardroom, board-management relationships, trust and power, norms and codes, value creation and board tasks, board composition and board member competences and identities, compensation, ownership types and structures.
