Este evento fue desarrollado en las dependencias del Departamento de Administración, Facultad de Economía y Negocios, Universidad de Chile.
En esta oportunidad David Díaz, quién es académico del Departamento de Administración, Facultad de Economía y Negocios, Universidad de Chile, junto a Bbis Theodoulidis y Azar Shahgholian presentaran su paper titulado “On the Micro-Foundations of Evolving Director Networks”, el cual trata sobre: Examining the relationship between social networks of directors and firms and various organisational outcomes is an important research area in management. However, empirical evidence suggests that there are still important limitations in relation to the theoretical micro-foundations to understandhow networks emerge, evolve and change, the theory viewpoint behind examining the relationship between networks and organisational outcomes and last but not least, the methodological artefacts that are used to measure and test empirically the relationship. In this paper, we revisit the theoretical micro-foundations of social networks of directors by studying how they emerge under the individual agency perspective, how they are affected by the relative availability of firm resources and how these effects are interacted by managerial control levers such as ownership concentration.
