Configurations Of Board Of Director Composition And Structure, Strategic Attributes And Business Performance

Abstract

Research on the role of the board of directors and configurations of strategic attributes, important areas in strategic management, have proceeded somewhat independently.  This study integrated these two streams of research to highlight the configurations among board of director composition and structure, and strategy.  Hypotheses that firms with above-average performance would have significantly different configurations of board and strategic attributes compared to firms that have below-average performance were supported.
