If you answered yes to these questions, then this workshop is for you!
The On-Boarding Diversity in Corporate Boards Research: A Paper Development Workshop is designed for researchers in the field of diversity and corporate governance. Highly experienced scholars, many with editorial experience, will mentor and provide feedback to more junior scholars on papers close to journal submission. Consideration will be given to a wide range of topics in this area, including but not limited to: research on moderators of the link between board diversity and firm level outcomes as well as on mediators of this relationship (including board decision-making, board processes, information processing, or power relations, among others), diversity on boards and board performance (e.g. such as obtaining and processing critical information, relationship to the CEO, trust within the boards etc.), board diversity and corporate strategy, board diversity and CSR/sustainability attention, board ethical behavior, women on board, board composition and equality, international/cross-country comparisons as well as new methodological approaches.
Standing by to help you with your paper are the following experienced scholars: Renee Adams (U of New South Wales), Diana Bilimoria (Case Western Reserve U), Steven Boivie (Texas A&M), Bryan Boyd (City University of Hong Kong), Cynthia Clark (Bentley University), Thomas Clarke (University of Technology, Sydney), Igor Filatochev (King's College London), Johanne Grosvold (U of Bath), Morten Huse (BI Norwegian Business School), Livia Markoczy (UT Dallas), Toyah Miller (UT Dallas), Corinne Post (Lehigh U), Winfried Ruigrok (U of St.Gallen), Christy Shropshire (Arizona State U), Don Siegel (Arizona State U), Siri Terjesen (American U), Maria Triana (Wisconsin School of Business), Hans van Ees (University College Groningen), Andrew Ward (Lehigh U), and Alessandro Zattoni (LUISS University).
