Why Chosen

In working towards tenure, I took a lot of pride in pursuing research questions that were relevant to practice and where academic theory could help explain what we see at real companies. The Larcker and Tayan book reflects that same goal - it provides rich institutional details about various aspects of corporate governance, and then explains how what we've learned from academic research can inform present and important issues facing boards, executives, and stakeholders today.
