2013
Tutkielmassa selvitettiin johtoryhmien vaikutusta yrityksen suoritukseen. Teoreettinen näkökulma perustui organizational demography- ja upper echelons -teorioihin, joiden mukaan johtoryhmän ominaisuudet ryhmänä ovat seurausta jäsenten ominaisuuksista, ja nämä ominaisuudet heijastuvat strategisiin valintoihin ja suoritukseen. Päätavoite oli selvittää vaikuttavatko johtoryhmän ominaisuudet yrityksen suoritukseen. Lisäksi selvitettiin onko johtoryhmän monimuotoisuudella merkitystä suoritukseen ja muuttuuko vaikutus johtoryhmän toimikauden pituuden kasvaessa. Tutkimuskohteina olivat NASDAQ OMX Helsinki -pörssissä lokakuussa 2012 no-teeratut yritykset. Tiedot kerättiin vuoden 2011 johtoryhmästä …
