Diversity Strategy

Alliance portfolio diversity has emerged as a topic of considerable researchinterest. Two central questions remain: why are some firms are better at managingalliance portfolio diversity than others, and does the form of alliance portfoliodiversity matter? I develop a framework using dominant logic theory to explorethese questions. I distinguish related alliance portfolio diversity from unrelatedalliance portfolio diversity, and argue that when a firm engages in related allianceportfolio diversity strategy that matches its dominant logic(s), it will experiencegreater performance. I expect that firms lacking a prominent dominant logic willengage in unrelated alliance portfolio diversity. I also argue that if firms engage inrelated alliance portfolio diversity in an area(s) that does not match its dominantlogic(s), there will be a mismatch, triggering a reduction in firm performance and thedevelopment of a new dominant logic. Finally, I offer directions for future research.

Board Diversity

This study examines whether board diversity affects firm performance. We investigate this study using panel data of a sample of S&P 500 firms during a 12 year period. After controlling for industry, firm size, and other board composition variables, we find that all three board diversity variables of interest – gender, ethnicity, and age have a significant influence on firm performance. While ethnicity and age have a positive influence on firm performance, it was found that gender has a negative influence. Implications for future research are discussed.
