Sidrea International Workshop (SIW)
Innovations in corporate governance and performance management
UNINT University - Rome
Via Cristoforo Colombo, 200, Roma, Italy
21-22 April, 2016
Keynote speakers:
Prof. Robert Melville, CASS Business School, London
Prof. David Otley, University of Lancaster
Background
In recent years, corporate governance and performance management have been deeply
changed due to several regulatory requirements around the world and new managerial
practices inside the company. These emerging trends affect a huge number of
companies belonging to several sectors (such as health care firms, public utilities, public
administrations and so on), drawing the attention of regulators, mass media and a wider
group of stakeholders.
All these changes in corporate governance and management control spheres could be
seen as drivers of innovations inside the firms and they could affect the overall
corporate performance.
We invite papers adopting a variety of theoretical and methodological approaches on
topic related to the broad themes of emerging trends around corporate governance and
performance management systems. In particular, we encourage submissions from
scholars, which should be aimed at developing and assessing the extant performance
management and corporate governance frameworks. Practitioners’ contributions are
welcome as well in order to share managerial practices and fill the gap between theory
and practice.
The objective of the workshop is to promote a debate on the challenges and threats for
innovations in corporate governance and performance management, such as: What are
the most recent innovations in corporate governance? What are the most recent
innovations in performance management systems? What are the changes in the settled
practices? What are the effects for firms? Who are the involved actors?
Submitted papers could deal with, but not limited to, the following issues:
-
management control, performance management systems and performance
measurement systems
corporate governance systems and emerging trends
corporate governance: performance, principles and practices
the link between corporate governance and performance management systems
performance management systems, corporate governance and corporate
performance
