A model of management teams

Eduardo Ley and Mark Steel ()

ESE Discussion Papers from Edinburgh School of Economics, University of Edinburgh

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.
