Abstract :

Good corporate governance as a model of sustainable human resource development with actors from all three sectors of government, private and civil society, has a special place in many recent scientific theories about the concept of governance. Nevertheless, despite the importance and position of the concept of good corporate governance, the theoretical gap in this area is obvious. One reason for this is perhaps the complexity of dealing with it as an interdisciplinary category. To address this gap and with an interdisciplinary perspective, the present study uses the qualitative method of content analysis to explore the constituent elements of good corporate governance. The results of this study eventually led to the identification of eight main themes and twenty-three sub-themes: 1. Sovereign consciousness, 2. Organizational culture, 3. Disclosure of information, 4. Responsiveness, 5. A network of relationships, 6. Board size, 7. Justice and fairness and 8. Ownership structure.The key building blocks of corporate governance are well known. The results of this research provide the necessary theoretical foundations to address good corporate governance and its evaluation
