- IBM's Study on Corporate Social Responsibility: It's a New World
- IBM is out with an interesting new study that I think speaks volumes about what top managements should be thinking about these days.

- The Myth of Splitting the CEO/Chair jobs
- By now, it's the perceived wisdom that people who are chief executive officers should not also be chairmen of the board. Institutional Shareholder Services and all sorts of rating agencies state, with complete conviction, that the job should be split--at all times, and at all companies. But...

- Bill Gates and Creative Capitalism--Oh, Give Me A Break!
