    Description:

    Upper echelons, boards of directors and top management teams (TMTs) are among the most influential actors at both firm and society level. However, their influence on firm behavior and firm outcomes continues to be subject to much debate. Despite the large amount of existing research, results are mixed or inconclusive. In this context, understanding the role of board effectiveness, the role of individual executives (CEOs) and top management teams (TMTs), presents an important and growing avenue for research. This topic seeks to (a) understand what makes boards and TMTs effective; (b) to examine the relationships between board, TMT, structures, processes and effectiveness; (c) to build a platform for discussion of issues related to different aspects of upper echelons at micro and macro levels.
