Subject. The article evaluates the performance of corporate leaders in today's economy. Objectives. I unfold principles for evaluating the performance of a business leader, and review the substance of corporate governance and distinctions in managerial approaches that exist in a transportation company. Methods. The study relies upon the process-based and systems approaches, economic and mathematical methods, statistical methods for data processing and comparative analysis. Results. I analyzed types of corporate governance and notes that the entity should primarily ensure a growth in the productivity and financial result (profit). Therefore, as for the substance of corporate leader's performance, it seems to ensure the relationship of all management elements. Hence, I review a closed chain of the business leader's governance ensuring the working process and comprising five phases. The article outlines an algorithm for evaluating the performance of managers, illustrating the case of a transportation company. Based on available theoretical data, I determine that the microanalysis seems to be an option to improve the performance of corporate leaders, since it detects challenges at the initial phase, examines the management process and finds methods to eliminate any issues. I analyze how the organizational culture is examined, and conclude that the organizational culture in the transportation company is developing, thus ensuring the effective performance of the company. Conclusions. The substance of management translates into its functions and tasks shaping the specifics of the working process. A corporate leader deals with a big deal of functions, managing the staff, establishing the cooperation between corporate departments, collecting and processing the information for tasks they have to handle. The microanalysis and the implementation of the corporate governance mainly serve for raising the performance of corporate leaders. The findings can prove useful to various entities.

This article seeks to examine corporate governance and the performance of audit committee and internal audit functions in an emerging economy’s public sector. These two functions form a part of imperative corporate governance aspects, and their effective performance ensures better service delivery by public sector agencies. The study is premised on stakeholder theory, which has turned out to be the central point of public sector discourses. The study is based on qualitative content analysis, which aspires to present information about corporate governance and effectiveness of audit committees and internal audit units in South Africa’s public sector. The findings suggest that there is good corporate governance in terms of the existence of audit committees and internal audit functions in the public sector. However, the results suggest that the audit committees and internal audit units in South Africa’s public sector are not effective. Absence of advice, implementation of recommendations and inadequacy of resources have undermined the performance of audit committees and internal audit units in South Africa’s public sector. The leadership and other assurance bringers ought to consider the findings elevated by the audit committees and internal audit and execute their commendation. Their findings should be urbanised into action plans that are implemented by management. Audit committees must improve their oversight on internal audit functions so that both units would effectively perform. The subsistence of successful audit committee and internal audit components in the public sector certifies proficient and effectual exploitation of resources for the gain of all stakeholders.

Purpose The unprecedented economic development and increase in the number of global corporations in the Greater China region, comprising the Chinese mainland, Taiwan and Hong Kong, have led to more emphasis on corporate leader-stakeholder communication. Bilingual web-based messages posted on corporate websites, which aim to strategically cultivate positive relationships between leaders and stakeholders, have emerged as a primary mode of communication for Chinese corporations. However, a research study investigating the prominent themes and underlying cultural values depicted in leaders’ messages intended for different groups of stakeholders is lacking. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to investigate the themes and cultural values expressed through corporate leaders’ web-based messages in a non-western context. Design/methodology/approach Using an inductive approach, open coding and a categorization system, this study analyzed the web-based messages of leading corporations with WordSmith 6.0. Findings Six prominent themes in leaders’ communication were identified. These themes included, in order of importance: company development, operating philosophy, company profile, business environment, performance, and products and services. It was found that leaders strategically selected certain themes such as focusing on progress and the business environment but omitted others depending on how they wanted to strategically influence their stakeholders’ attitudes. Differences between the cultural values depicted in Chinese and the corresponding English messages could be attributed to leaders’ cultural adaptation of the messages intended for non-domestic stakeholders. Originality/value Since this study provides insights into the major themes preferred by leaders of corporations operating in Greater China, it will enable existing stakeholders to understand the main business focus of leaders and offer leaders more information about commonly accepted themes. These possibilities for enhanced knowledge on the part of stakeholders and business leaders, in turn, may potentially increase academic appreciation of the complexities involved in corporate communication. It also informs stakeholders about the variations in the values reflected in the English and Chinese messages of leaders, and, therefore, has a potential to offer value to academics and practitioners.
