FOREIGN EXPERIENCE OF TOP MANAGEMENT TEAMS AND INTERNATIONAL DIVERSIFICATION STRATEGIES OF U.S. MULTINATIONAL CORPORATIONS
研究了美国跨国公司高管团队的外国经验(包括平均水平、异质性和比例)与企业国际多元化程度的关系,发现两者显著正相关。
This paper extends upper echelon theory to the international business arena and tests the hypothesis that the foreign experience of top management team (TMT) members is associated with international diversification strategies. Regression analyses indicate that TMTs with a higher mean, greater heterogeneity, and a higher proportion of managers with foreign experience in 54 U.S. multinational corporations were significantly associated with the firm's international involvement.
