- Abstract
We now live in a time when the once astonishing M&A deals of the 1980s are surpassed and even dwarfed on a regular basis and when CEOs, having risen to the status of popular heroes in the late 1990s, are facing heightened public scrutiny as a result of widely publicized and stunning excesses and abuses over the past few years. But despite this fall from grace, the belief in the power and the efficacy of business has not diminished; rather, it is the public's trust in the business agenda and its methods that has been tarnished. In fact, the degree of public and government scrutiny and even cynicism that business and its leaders encounter today is a direct reflection of the amount of power and control and capacity they are believed to wield.
