Leadership in The Boardroom: How Board Chairs Influence Director Engagement

This study examines the role of the board chair in creating a context for effective boardroom decision-making. Due to increased shareholder scrutiny, board roles have become more complex and demanding. With that numerous calls have been made for more studies on director behavior and leadership in the boardroom. The present study aims to contribute to this line of research by providing a more comprehensive understanding of how chair's leadership capacity influences director engagement during boardroom discussions. To answer our research questions a qualitative research design was adopted. Qualitative data was collected through in-depth semi-structured interviews with supervisory board members of listed Croatian companies. Overall, our findings add to a growing body of knowledge on the chair's role in building efficient boards by providing insightful and novel findings from companies with a two-tier board model.Based on our study several promising avenues for future behavior-oriented research are outlined.
