| Abstract: | In this paper, a framework is developed linking characteristics (hereafter as: chars.) of top managers (here as: TM) to the development of bridging and bonding social capital (as: soc-cap.) in TM groups (TMGs). In addition, outlined are strategic and environmental contingencies influencing soc-cap.'s value to organizations. Soc-cap. is argued to be a vital operative mechanism through which links btw. executive chars., strategic choice, and performance occur. It is shown how a directed application of soc-cap. at the senior management level can shed new light on the social dimensions of TM activities. |
