BACKGROUND

Top executives are among the most important decision-makers influencing the strategy and performance of their organizations. The series of EIASM Workshops on Top Management Teams and Business Strategy was initiated as a specialized and focused forum where researchers can engage in constructive discussions about the relationship among Top Management Teams and the ability of firms to respond strategically to the challenges they face, as well as find new opportunities for research collaborations.

Over the years, twelve editions of the EIASM workshop on Top Management Teams and Business Strategy have been successfully organized—eleven regular editions and one ‘special edition.’ These workshops have been hosted in various locations across Europe, including Passau, Germany (June 2024, 2019); Jouy-en-Josas, France (March-April 2022); Geneva, Switzerland (March 2018); Seville, Spain (March 2017); Groningen, the Netherlands (April 2016); Antwerp, Belgium (March 2015); Copenhagen, Denmark (October 2013); Milan, Italy (June 2012); Istanbul, Turkey (March-April 2011); and Valencia, Spain (March 2010). The fifth workshop, a ‘special edition’ focused explicitly on fostering research collaborations, was also held in Valencia, Spain (June 2014).

The workshops have consistently established themselves as a premier platform for strategic leadership research and a vital hub for strengthening international research networks. This year, returning to Groningen, the Netherlands, the workshop will continue the tradition of excellence and offer strategic leadership and governance scholars an engaging venue to advance their research and collaborations.
