Develop An Understanding Of The Corporate Business Structure

By Bernard Klein


A large corporation upon first assessment might seem to run easily and smoothly. There may seem to be no problems in daily function. However, without a solid Corporate Business Structure, it could become a confusing set of conflicts. There must be order, leadership and heads of departments to constitute a successful corporation.

The Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer top the hierarchy. It is not always the case, but most giant corporations have more than one Vice President.

Prior to the twentieth century there were smaller companies in the business world. They were owned and run by families or partners. Now, due to public ownership, there may be a huge chasm between those who own and those who manage the business.

There are more than one global exchanges where stocks are traded daily. The largest companies usually trade on more than one of them. In years past, when pop and mom businesses existed, things were much different.

There is now a two-tier corporate structure. The hierarchy is topped by the board of governors, also known as the board of directors. The shareholders, those individuals who own shares, or stock in the corporation vote them into office.

He or she who owns the majority of the shares is in control. There are two types of representatives serving on a board of directors. Possibly it is the individual holding the title CEO, COO or CFO.

Another kind of representative is selected from outside of the company and can be considered independent. The responsibility of the the directors is to look out for the best interests of shareholders. There may be multiple directors.

Executives and directors are at the top of the hierarchy that comprises the Corporate Business Structure. They run the business as the stockholders wish them to. A dissatisfied group of stockholders can vote them out of office.
