Summary

Introduction

As the time goes by, strong business competition requires companies to develop a good management strategy. Mol (2001) has stated that board interlocking provides boards of commissioners with wealth of experiences that serve to increase the company's competitive advantage such as valuable information about customers; suppliers; human, financial and operational resources; strategic plans and other corporate innovations in the business arena. Such business acumen contributes to the competitive advantage that companies gain and it is the primary approach for many companies to prevent environmental uncertainty. Excessive board interlocking can undermine company performance because when viewed from the perspective of agency theory, board interlocking can result in the application of a kind of time pressure on its directors which affects the efficiency of the commissioners in monitoring company performance (Ficjh and Shivdasani, 2006)
