  • 1.  Call for Unpublished Studies: Board Gender Composition, Firm Performance, and Board Behaviors

    Posted 04-27-2012 10:06
    Dear Colleagues,
     
    Kris Byron and I are conducting a meta-analysis on the gender composition of boards of directors as it relates to firm performance, board behaviors, and predictors of board gender composition.
     
    We are seeking unpublished studies (e.g. working papers, papers accepted for publication, dissertations, master's theses, etc.), conference presentations, proceedings publications, or book chapters reporting:
     
    * the gender composition of boards and firm performance (e.g. financial indicators, social indicators, etc.).
     
    * the gender composition of boards and board outcomes (e.g., attendance, interpersonal dynamics, board behaviors, etc.).
     
    * the gender composition of boards and antecedents of gender composition (e.g., lawsuits, industry influence, organizational size, legal policies, etc.).
     
    Please send any relevant efforts to Corinne Post (corinne.post@lehigh.edu).
     
    Thank you in advance for your time,
    Corinne Post & Kris Byron
