Abstract: Abstract The governance debate is wide-ranging, from the good stewardship of the enterprise to an examination of the broader perspectives of social justice and the development of whole societies. At the corporate end of the spectrum, the governance debate is positioned as one of freedom to generate wealth within ‘ethically’ acceptable boundaries, with executives in the Anglo-American context strongly displaying their approval of the entrepreneurially inclined, single-tier structure (Kakabadse et al., 2000). At the other end of the spectrum, humanistic value arguments are linked to analyses of the length of time world resources could continue to be exploited at their present rate, and the length of time it will take for societies to succumb to the effects of the growing inequalities of wealth distribution (Alter, 2000).
