Abstract: Purpose: The major goal of this scientific paper is to investigate the impact of managers' decision-making on performance in publicly traded financial institutions using the COVID- 19 effect. Design/Methodology/Approach: The empirical tests were conducted using panel data from FTSE 100 businesses (15 institutions over 9 years, or 135 observations). We developed a set of hypotheses to solve this research challenge. Findings: The findings of the empirical testing show that compensation size has a beneficial impact on performance. The empirical experiments, on the other hand, reveal that board size and dual function have a favorable effect on performance, while dual function has a negative effect. Practical Implications: A deeper understanding of this process will allow researchers to better understand the causes for behavioural dominance's traits and evolution throughout time, as well as its interactions with the other mechanisms that make up the governance system as a whole. Originality/Value: Working on the decision-making process of behavioral leadership dominant policy in relation to governance, on the other hand, would necessitate an empirical procedure with a significant qualitative component.
