Top managers have been an area of active research in strategic management. The difficulty in accessing top manager has limited researchers to focusing on top managers demographic characteristics to explore their influence on organizational outcomes. These demographic characteristics have been considered as surrogates of top managers cognition. However this approach has critical limitations (Markoczy,1997), and a cognitive approach will enhance our understanding of top managers influence on the organization. Recognizing this issue, I propose a cognitive approach to top management research. Specifically, top managers efficacy beliefs are conceptualized based on Social Cognitive Theory. Further, I develop several propositions on the effectsof top manager efficacy beliefs on organizational outcomes.
Abstract
Top managers have been an area of active research in strategic management.

Recognizing this issue, I propose a cognitive approach to top management research. Specifically, top managers efficacy beliefs are conceptualized based on Social Cognitive Theory. Further, I develop several propositions on the effectsof top manager efficacy beliefs on organizational outcomes.
