Panel 1: How Governance Mechanisms Influence Strategic Leadership and Decision-Making
Research has long examined the influence of governance mechanisms and strategic leadership (including incentives, power distribution, upper echelons, team dynamics etc.) on strategic choice, behavior, and performance outcomes. This panel aims at bridging governance and leadership perspectives on these topics and discusses current themes as well as pressing questions for future research.

Panel 2: Individuals and Teams at the Top of the Firm – Current and Emerging Topics
This panel aims at discussing important topics and research avenues revolving around individual leaders and teams at the top of the firm. We are going to address governance choices like nomination and turnover decisions – including internal and external reasons for these decisions – which ultimately result in changes in board composition and inter-firm interlocks. Conceptual as well as empirical avenues of research will be highlighted.

Panel 3: What's with the Board: Strategic Decision-Making Processes in the Boardroom
This is a joint panel of two interest groups, Strategy Process and Strategic Leadership and Governance.
Most governance and strategy research on boards has focused on structural or demographic features - composition, remuneration, and ownership - as possible determinants of the quality of their decision-making. However, very little is known on boards' decision-making processes, due in part to the difficulty to having access to them. Nevertheless, due to their importance, it seems urgent to think how to better bridge this gap. Researchers with a long-standing interest and access to boards, together with current board members will discuss how to.
