This article introduces the concept of “the good corporation.” After defining it, it brushes over a dozen of management principles that are instrumental in the development of such corporations. These fundamental management rules cover topics such as business strategy, the logic of performance, economic efficiency, communication, constructive questioning, innovation, compensation schemes, the granting of liberties, decision making, corporate culture, knowledge management, and the board of directors. Whenever possible, these principles are illustrated with real-life examples in order to facilitate implementation.
