Subject does not seem to meet notability requirements of WP:AUTHOR. He has co-authored two books. "Corporate Governance Matters" is ranked #104,424 in paperback in Amazon - not stellar, even for a business book. His co-author, Professor David F. Larcker, may well meet notability standards, but Mr. Tayan seems a stretch. Possibly a WP:TOOSOON. Fiachra10003 ( talk) 03:00, 18 August 2014 (UTC)
- Understand the concern on Brian. Please do note that Corporate Governance is a niche topic so books are not major sellers in the category. His ranking on SSRN (Social Science Research Network)may give a better reading on his contributions as an author:
