How can company boards be induced to serve the shareholders interests in running the company? How can company executives induce employees to serve the companys interest while carrying out their jobs?

Conclusion
Currently, ethical norms do not play a substantial part in standard theoretical & public policy approaches to corporate governance problems
Work needs to be done for a fully developed Norms Theory of corporate governance & corporate responsibility
