Resumo(s)
Top managers are key players in modern economies. This thesis contributes to the understanding of top managers' performance and pay. The first chapter advances the literature on optimal CEO characteristics, by studying the impact of newcomer CEOs on rm performance during a major economic crisis. The second and third chapters focus on the managerial power extracted from professional networks, using an original dataset.
While the second chapter quantifies the network pay premium for top managers, the last chapter investigates to what extent networks can be an additional source contributing to the gender pay gap at the top of the corporate ladder.
