Tiivistelmä: | This study examines upper echelon theory and its applicability to non-U.S. setting. Using an investigation of Japanese firm performance and how it is influenced by the relationship between organizational strategy and top management team attributes, the authors explore the theory's extension and consider what modifications are necessary in doing so. The study found that, taking into account the nature of firm strategy, greater heterogeneity within Japanese top management was negatively associated with performance for Defender strategies and positively associated with performance for Analyzer strategies. |
