Abstract: | Diversity is an important issue at all levels of the company from the boardroom to the back office. It is increasingly apparent that diversity is vital to productivity, with academic research indicating an important link between diverse top management (TMT) composition and corporate performance. However, the nature of this link remains elusive, as there is little accessible research that can help top teams to evaluate how diversity impacts on their strategic capacity. This article fills the gap by developing a conceptual framework, illustrated with case examples, to explain the relationship between TMT diversity and TMT collective action. |
