The activities within a business organization are intricately intertwined with the contributions of individuals who work together in pursuit of adequate rewards. The effectiveness of organizations in achieving specific performance levels is significantly influenced by their ownership structure, while management is guided and controlled through a set of rules and incentives. This intricate framework governs the distribution of rights and responsibilities among the board, company management, and stakeholders, ultimately shaping the corporate governance model adopted by the organization.

However, the recent collapse of global organizations has underscored the inherent weaknesses in contemporary corporate governance practices. In response to these international scandals, a surge of multidisciplinary research has been underway, aimed at defining the unique characteristics of each corporate governance model. Nevertheless, there has been a notable absence of a focused investigation into the perceived existence of the most suitable governance model. By adopting a synthesis and inductive approach, this book aims to explore the potential existence of the most appropriate corporate governance model through a comparative international analysis of cultural, social, and economic factors that influence organizations' choices regarding the corporate governance model to be adopted.

This comprehensive volume will appeal to a wide range of scholars, academics, professionals, and students engaged in the fields of corporate governance, international business, and law. It offers valuable insights and perspectives that will contribute to the ongoing discourse on governance practices and their impact on organizational performance.
