The Innovative Corporate Governance Project
The Innovative Corporate Governance Project is devoted to involving both practitioners and academics in an ongoing process of developing imaginative, thoughtful, and practical proposals for improving corporate governance.

Current objectives of the project include a conference on innovations in corporate governance for academics and practitioners in Fall 2003, a seminar series at Rutgers Business School, a series of lunches and other discussions with key constituencies, such as general counsel, top management, and ethics officers, and academic articles on innovations in corporate governance by fellows of the Prudential Business Ethics Center, Rutgers colleagues, and others.

The Project does not have a party line as to which innovations it supports. Some affiliated with the project are especially interested in training programs for directors, others in the positive potential of value diversity among top management and boards, others in the role of general counsel and outside counsel, and still others in strategies to counter earnings misstatements and other accounting frauds. What unites those involved with the Project is commitment to making concrete proposals for improved corporate governance that are based on a combination of high-level reflection and high-level practical experience.
For more information about this project, please contact Dr. Wayne Eastman.
