cob meaning in business: Corporate Governance Sankatha Singh, 2005 The subject Corporate Governance:Global Concepts and Practices has occupied centre- stage, particularly since the early 1990s in U.K., USA, rest of Europe, Canada, Japan, India and many other developing countries of the world. The present volume is essentially a comprehensive textbook, focusing on both concepts and corporate governance practices. Even before the Enron collapse and several other kingsize scandals, there has been a steadily mounting volume of complaints regarding the dismal state of governance in most large corporates across the globe, mostly relating to accounting irregularities and top dressing of financial results, almost universally perpetrated at the behest of the Company Chairman & CEO himself. Keeping the above ground realities in view, the present volume is intended to be a standard reference as well as textbook on the varied facets of corporate governance. The book has six distinct parts, containing in all as many as twenty-eight interrelated chapters.The first part deals with subjects like business environment, business ethics and social responsibilities, management of a firm, etc., while the second part is concerned with the theory of firm, its objectives, accounting standards and creative accounting practices. Part Three of the book dwells at length on the working of the company board, board committees, need for whistle blowing, corporate governance rating and need for separation of the positions of Chairman and CEO. Part Four presents summary recommendations of five Indian Committees on corporate governance in chronological order. These are (i) CII Committee (1998), (ii) Ist SEBI Committee (1999), (iii) Ganguly Committee-RBI (2002); (iv) Naresh Chandra Committee (2002) and (v) 2nd SEBI Committee (2003). Part Five contains six chapters comprising as many live cases on accounting scams. The sixth part of the book contains governance reports of three world class companies from India, viz., Infosys Technologies Ltd., Wipro, and Reliance Industries Ltd. |

cob meaning in business: Stillness is the Key Ryan Holiday, 2019-10-10 Throughout history, there has been one quality that great leaders, makers, artists and fighters have shared. The Zen Buddhists described it as inner peace, the Stoics called it ataraxia and Ryan Holiday calls it stillness: the ability to be steady, focused and calm in a constantly busy world. Drawing on a wide range of history's greatest thinkers, Holiday shows us how crucial stillness is, and how it can be cultivated in our own lives today. Just as Winston Churchill, Oprah Winfrey and baseball player Sadaharu Oh have done, we can all benefit from stillness to feed into our greater ambitions - whether building a business or simply finding happiness, peace and self-direction. Stillness is the key to the self-mastery, discipline and focus necessary to succeed in this competitive, noisy world. |

cob meaning in business: The Transformation of European Private Law James Devenney, Mel Kenny, 2013-10-24 This book emanates from a duo-colloquium which explored the Europeanisation of private law in the context of efforts to consolidate the consumer acquis, the Draft Common Frame of Reference, the appointment of an Expert Group on a Common Frame of Reference in the area of European contract law, the passage of the Consumer Rights Directive and the proposed Common European Sales Law. This book, with fully updated contributions, critically reflects on whether the process of Europeanisation, which has shaped private law in the EU Member States, has now reached a significant turning point in its development, a point of punctuated equilibrium. Written by a team of leading authors, the topics covered will be of concern in all European legal systems and beyond. |
cob meaning in business: Super Thinking Gabriel Weinberg, Lauren McCann, 2019-06-18 A WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER! You can't really know anything if you just remember isolated facts. If the facts don't hang together on a latticework of theory, you don't have them in a usable form. You've got to have models in your head. - Charlie Munger, investor, vice chairman of Berkshire Hathaway The world's greatest problem-solvers, forecasters, and decision-makers all rely on a set of frameworks and shortcuts that help them cut through complexity and separate good ideas from bad ones. They're called mental models, and you can find them in dense textbooks on psychology, physics, economics, and more. Or, you can just read Super Thinking, a fun, illustrated guide to every mental model you could possibly need. How can mental models help you? Well, here are just a few examples... • If you've ever been overwhelmed by a to-do list that's grown too long, maybe you need the Eisenhower Decision Matrix to help you prioritize. • Use the 5 Whys model to better understand people's motivations or get to the root cause of a problem. • Before concluding that your colleague who messes up your projects is out to sabotage you, consider Hanlon's Razor for an alternative explanation. • Ever sat through a bad movie just because you paid a lot for the ticket? You might be falling prey to Sunk Cost Fallacy. • Set up Forcing Functions, like standing meeting or deadlines, to help grease the wheels for changes you want to occur. So, the next time you find yourself faced with a difficult decision or just trying to understand a complex situation, let Super Thinking upgrade your brain with mental models. |
