Abstract
In this paper, we examine the factors that influence whether a particular manager is included in strategic decision making. Using theory related to leader-member exchange, power, and strategic issue processing, we offer a conceptual model that includes both main effects and contingency factors. This research sheds light on how strategic decision making groups emerge and evolve, which informs the understanding of strategic decision making processes. It should improve the accuracy of the conceptualizations of the TMT, which is likely to improve research predictions. This seems especially important given the wide variation of how TMTs are conceptualized in the literature today with little theoretical rationale. Finally, in this paper we offer suggestions for future research.
