Abstract

The information that managers voluntarily disclose to outsiders can have important performance implications for the firm. Information disclosure is therefore an important decision for managers and a growing area for strategic management research. In this symposium, we examine and discuss two major topics in voluntary disclosure research: (1) environmental disclosures that aim to reveal the extent to which organizations are responsible members of society and (2) impression management tactics that utilize information disclosure as a means of influencing stakeholder perceptions of the firm. We focus not only on performance implications for the firm but also the important role of information disclosure on society. We discuss common themes, future directions, and collaborative opportunities.
