About: Lori Ryan

If only every corporation had a formula for guaranteed success. For those at the Corporate Governance Institute at the San Diego State University College of Business, it's a constant search for the successful method of doing business -- from board member behavior to the range of power for CEOs and shareholders.

Director of CGI Lori Ryan believes there is no universal blueprint -- unfortunate for shareholders, who would like to see a formulaic, "x" number of board members equals success, especially if the CEO has an annual salary of "y" dollars.

Instead, the institute researches best business practices from around the globe and encourages ethics. Since 1998, the vision has been to "become known as the dominant center for the study and application of responsible corporate governance principles worldwide."
