| Abstract: | This paper presents a new contingency variable moderating the effect of top management team (henceforth as: t-m-t.) composition on organizational performance, the organization's business model. Arguing from an upper echelon perspective and based on data from 99 German biotechnology ventures, it is among others shown that founder-based firm-specific experience of t-m-t. members can have a positive or a negative effect on performance, depending on whether the venture pursues a platform or a therapeutics business model, respectively. |
