摘要
This paper reviews the literature pertaining to the effects of the characteristics of top executives on firms' decisions and outcomes. We focus particularly on research related to executives' individual characteristics, including their demographic, psychological, and other characteristics. Thereafter, we discuss the literature related to the relationship among executives, particularly the CEO and the CFO, which may affect corporate performance and accounting outcomes. Finally, we identify the gaps in the literature and provide directions for future research.
