A top management team (TMT) matters for its organization, right? While researchers have established that TMTs do "matter," the ways in which TMTs do that are complex and opaque. This book outlines how a TMT can matter most for its organization, and it does so in a positive way by considering the most recent academic and practical insights. Two factors are critical: (1) inside the boardroom, TMT members' behavior determines the quality of strategic decisions, and (2) outside the boardroom, the way in which the TMT works with middle managers is crucial for the subsequent implementation of those decisions. Understanding how these two factors can be effectively performed can help TMT members, middle managers, team coaches, HR practitioners, and so on to grasp the complex mechanisms of TMT impact.
