Abstract
- This research tested the relationship between the characteristics and background of U.S. top executives, and measures of corporate performance. Data were obtained from 953 top managers; the dominant coalition of the largest 150 companies within five U.S. industries--dairy, footwear, tyres, mobile homes, and machine tools. Results were generally positive: managerial characteristics not only predicted performance variations within industries--the top performers having significantly different managerial profiles than poorly performing companies--but also that the characteristics of managers within high-performing companies were similar across the five industries.
