Remember Mel Gibson in the movie What Women Want? After a freak accident in his bathroom, he was able to hear everything Helen Hunt thought. Anyone walking through the 127,000-square-foot Weinberg Center for Women's Health & Medicine might think Dr. Neil B. Rosenshein, the center's director and a gynecological oncologist, has the same ability to hear the desires of his female patients.
It is difficult to identify the best boards," says Patrick McGurn, executive vice president and special counsel at the ISS unit of RiskMetrics. Charles Elson, a professor and director of the Weinberg Center for Corporate Governance at the University of Delaware, says that there are many great boards that fly under the radar. Ira Millstein, a senior partner at law firm Weil, Gotshal & Manges who has counseled numerous boards on issues of corporate governance, including General Motors, Disney, and Westinghouse, says it is nearly impossible to tell a good board from the outside looking in.
Last week's low-turnout election still produced high-stakes outcomes for some North Jersey politicos who invested their energy, money and power into the legislative contests. Here is a rundown of the winners and losers of last week's campaign and a post-election leadership shuffle that occurred in Trenton two days later. Winner: Sen. Loretta Weinberg. The Teaneck Democrat nabbed the Senate majority leader post, which now places her at the nerve center of Trenton power. Weinberg auditioned for the part as a quasi- diplomat during the campaign, persuading public employee union leaders to hold their fire against a South Jersey Democrat. Will Weinberg use her new post to successfully advance the "core" Democratic (read: liberal) agenda, or will she become window dressing for a Democratic Pa...
Most public companies say they tie executive compensation to performance, but an IBJ review of pay data from 65 Indiana-based firms shows few are as diligent as Indianapolis-based Celadon. For most executives, performance-based compensation is now the largest part of their total earnings, said executive-pay expert Charles M. Elson, who chairs the University of Delaware's John L. Weinberg Center for Corporate Governance. Given that, it's little surprise that the executive leading the best-paid list also is leading the state's largest public company, Indianapolis-based health insurer WellPoint Inc. WellPoint CEO Angela Braly's compensation amounted to $14.9 million last year, the largest portion in stock options and performance-based stock.\n Don't expect public companies to cut too clo...
[...] all board members and candidates must be selective about where they invest their time, and the ability to align that experience with the needs of companies is both the science and art of executive placement. "Codina is definitely someone I'd put in that category," says Charles Elson, director of the Weinberg Center for Corporate Governance at the University of Delaware and a member of the AutoZone and HealthSouth boards. Patrick McGurn, executive vice president and special counsel at the ISS Governance Services unit of Risk Metrics, says he's not a fan of best or worst director lists.
Fifty years of selling clothing has taught Van Weinberg one thing while fashions come and go, a good location is always a good location. We've been here since Laurelwood opened and we're probably one of the few stores that have been here since the center opened, said Weinberg, president of James Davis, seller of business and casual wear for men and women in the Laurelwood Shopping Center in East Memphis. That's one of the neat things we've been in Memphis for 50 years, but we've also been in one location.
MASON, Ohio - She raises her hands to her snow-white hair in a gesture of frustrated bewilderment, then slowly lowers them to cover eyes filling with tears. The woman, in her 70s, is trying to explain how she wound up in a shelter that could well be where she spends the rest of her life. While the woman was living with a close family member, officials at the Shalom Center say, her money was being drained away by people overcharging for her grocery shopping, while her body and spirit were sapped by physical neglect and emotional torment. She says she was usually ordered to "go to bed," where she lay in a dark room, upset, unable to sleep.
