      abstract = {With the transition into the Knowledge Economy, a  formidable series of new challenges arise within the  corporate governance space. This book tackles the issue of  corporate governance along two axes. Firstly, it confronts  the developments in corporate governance within the context  of the Knowledge Economy and all its implications in  relation to the pre-eminence of intangible assets, the  advent of technologies such as smartphones and advanced  forms of artificial intelligence, and cultural changes  associated with the incorporation of Gen Y into the  workforce and the proliferation of social networks and  effects such as Big Data and cyber-threats. Secondly, it  highlights the challenges for multinational organizations  and the tension that exists between headquarters and  subsidiary offices due to the need to combine the  corporations ethical culture and corporate governance  values with the institutional forces of the subsidiaries  context. The combination of these two axes addressed viz a  viz the relationship between senior management and the rank  and file of the organization to create an ethical corporate  culture leads to a completely different positioning of  corporate governance and make the book truly unique and of  interest to researchers, students of corporate finance and  corporate governance alongside practitioners within  financial organizations and more broadly.
