The Governance in the Corporate Excellence Model – The 4th generation model

The objective of the study is to identify the impact of corporate excellence model on corporate ‎governance in the official sector of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The study employs a survey method ‎composed of 30 questions. Following the United Nations (UN) Convention against Corruption, the ‎questionnaire was divided into 6 components: contribution, transparency, accountability, rule of law, ‎efficiency, and effectiveness. The sample consists of 691 employees which represents 30% of total ‎population. Data is analyzed using SPSS. Results indicate that implementing the corporate excellence model ‎positively affects UAE corporate governance. Relatively, the participation, rule of law, justice, efficiency, ‎and effectiveness are implemented at the level of managers and deputy managers, while accountability is ‎depicted at the level of employees. Important recommendations are derived. To ensure excellence and ‎empower leaders and managers, companies should incentivize them. Training opportunities with ‎international organizations and awards system will contribute to motivate employees, elevate their sense ‎of loyalty and integrity while broadening their knowledge of successful governance practices
