A structural analysis of dominant coalitions in small banks
研究了七家小银行125名高管和董事会成员对主导联盟构成的看法，发现联盟成员与非成员在内部组织因素取向上有区别，但董事会成员任期与CEO的关系不影响其联盟成员身份。
This study examined the orientations of 125 executive officers and board members from seven financial institutions concerning the composition of their firm’s sociometrically-defined dominant coalitions. Hypotheses testing found that in seven small banks, dominant coalition members could be distinguished from non-members by their orientation toward internal organizational factors. In contrast to prior research, the study found no evidence of a significant relationship between board members’ tenure, relative to that of the CEO, and their membership in the organization S dominant coalition.
