A Model of Management Teams
Abstract
We present a simple model of management teams where the time it takes to make decisions is related to the size of the committee. We characterize the situations where larger or smaller sizes of the management team are desirable depending on the covariance structure of the signals that the managers observe.(This abstract was borrowed from another version of this item.)
