Description:
The importance of diversity in upper-echelons has been discussed since Hambrick and Mason´s (1984) work. A growing body of research concerns why upper-echelons are rather homogenous, how diversity in upper echelons affects performance, and how to enhance diversity in upper echelons in terms of gender, race, and ethnicity. A parallel literature is concerned with different corporate governance regimes in various countries (e.g., quotas, comply-or-explain codes) and their impact on board gender diversity. We encourage submissions representing different views (antecedents, processes, dynamics <g class="gr_ gr_43 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Punctuation only-ins replaceWithoutSep" id="43" data-gr-id="43">and</g> consequences) to enhance our understanding of diversity in boards and TMTs, including but not limited to studies focusing on <g class="gr_ gr_42 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Grammar only-ins doubleReplace replaceWithoutSep" id="42" data-gr-id="42">individual</g>, organizational or societal level, multi-level approaches and/or cross-cultural views.
