| Tiivistelmä: | This study examines the influence of gender diversity in management on firm performance. The management group examined was composed of all firm members considered to be managers and officials, a broader level of analysis than past management-level diversity research primarily focused on groups composed of top management team (TMT) members. Adopting contingency and configurational (herein: cont. and conf.) approaches, gender diversity's interactions with two key organizational variables organizational culture and growth orientation were evaluated against organizational-level performance measures. Supporting cont. and conf. theories, the results suggest that gender diversity's effects at the management level is conditional on, that is, moderated by, the firm's strategic orientation, the organizational culture in which it resides, and/or the multivariate interaction among these variables. |
