Too much room at the top?

Article Abstract:

Instability and loss of investor faith can result from the unexpected departure of a firm's director. It is essential to be seen to act on the departure of a firm's leader, installing a temporary replacement as soon as possible to give the impression of stability. Maintaining open lines of communication with existing board members provides a positive atmosphere in which the newly installed director can ensure the company's aims and objectives are adhered too. An interim director also allows time to make the careful selection of a permanent board leader.

Everything and the kitchen sink

Article Abstract:

Researchers have found the best way to increase employee loyalty and productivity is to offer constructive training and support packages instead of a wide range of small and often obscure perks, such as theatre tickets. Some perks can be useful to employees, such as the ability to use company computers to shop on the Internet during lunch. The most successfully thought out schemes tend to offer benefits to employees and their families.
