Abstract

One issue in the international business literature that has been virtually ignored is the internationalization of top management teams. This study examines the extent of national diversity in the composition of top management teams in two highly internationalized European countries, Sweden and The Netherlands. Results indicate that the national diversity of top management teams in these countries has not progressed to the same level as the internationalization of the companies at large.
