Abstract
This study looks at the effect of board composition on a firm’s propensity for strategic change. We hypothesise that board composition influences strategic change and internationalisation moderates this relationship. We do a longitudinal study of 433 listed firms in the United States. The findings indicate that the board composition represented by two variables, namely board size and CEO duality, leads to less strategic change. In contrast, the third variable, interlocking directorships, leads to more strategic change. Our results also suggest that internationalisation mitigates the negative impact of board size and CEO duality on strategic change and strengthens the positive impact of interlocking directorships.JEL Classification: C12, L20, L21, M10
期刊介绍：
The objectives of the Australian Journal of Management are to encourage and publish research in the field of management. The terms management and research are both broadly defined. The former includes the management of firms, groups, industries, regulatory bodies, government, and other institutions. The latter encompasses both discipline- and problem-based research. Consistent with the policy, the Australian Journal of Management publishes research in accounting, applied economics, finance, industrial relations, political science, psychology, statistics, and other disciplines, provided the application is to management, as well as research in areas such as marketing, corporate strategy, operations management, organisation development, decision analysis, and other problem-focuses paradigms.
