Abstract

Corporate governance tends to resonate when large and multinational firms’ decisions’ outcomes make the daily news headlines. It is a concept that hardly comes up, that is until stakeholders’ outrage reaches the boardroom, mass media, or worse, social media. It is only natural that current and potential stakeholders take action when they become aware of organizations engaging in questionable and/or unethical practices. Therefore, it is imperative to understand the internal and external dynamics of governance attributes, as well as their impact on current and potential stakeholder perceptions and actions, and influence on organizational standing.
