Abstract: | Based on Gonzalez (2002 PhD dissertation) theoretical model, an experimental study was conducted to measure the impact of herding behaviour inside a board of directors. Gonzalez model states that in a board meeting composed of a CEO and two external directors (A and B), where voting is sequential and the directors' reputations are valuable, director B tends to copy director A's decision. The findings of this study confirm the presence of herding behaviour. |
