Summary
In the 1990s, British writers began using “transparency” as a portmanteau word to describe that desirable state of organizational management and governance characterized by candor, openness, honesty, clarity, legal compliance, and full disclosure (Handy, 1990). At first, the word didn’t take hold on this side of the Atlantic, perhaps because it was too vague and philosophical for American tastes in managerial buzz words (which tend to run more to the precise and practical).
