It's unfortunate how it's perfectly rational for a board to want their CEOs doing just enough fraud/backchanneling/cosying-up-to-suspect-world-leaders to maximize shareholder value, as long as they're not getting caught/... in ways that overall minimize shareholder value.

I don't think it's rational for boards to encourage fraud, as it is illegal, nor does it happen much. The others sure.

That's not unfortunate: that's the way the system is designed to work:
* Corps maximize shareholder value
* Govs make laws/penalties to avoid too much harm/risk by corps
* Press keeps everybody accountable
It's great when everybody's doing what they're supposed to do.
Unfortunate is when corps are so in bed with gov that they don't bother innovating or growing
