“…There is a need to look beyond these features and investigate some less researched board attributes too like board reputation, tenure, age, education, political connections, social network and their relationship with CSRP and CSRD. CEOs ethnicity, altruism, materialism, their poverty experience, political ideologies or connections are some other interesting areas in which limited work is available (Hasan et al, 2021; Nandy et al, 2020; Xu & Ma, 2021). The impact of these attributes on CSP can be explored by the prospective researchers.…”

The relationship between board attributes and corporate social responsibility (CSR) has gained considerable attention from academicians and researchers in the past few decades. This systematic literature review paper aims to analyse empirical evidence on the impact of board characteristics on CSR. A content analysis of 159 articles extracted systematically from the Scopus and WOS databases revealed a significant upsurge in the area in the last decade mainly in the past three years. It was found that a large majority of the existing works were single-country studies mainly from the developed nations; though cross-country works and research from developing countries have gained momentum in recent years. The study highlighted important trends in publication in the area, the most researched as well as less analysed board attributes, various measures of CSR variables, the type of sample organisations considered, and commonly used research techniques. The study makes a useful contribution to the extant literature by providing insight into the existing works and indicating knowledge gaps and future research perspectives. The findings of the study would also be useful for the policy makers and regulators in further strengthening the corporate governance codes and regulations, so as to help organisations in improving their social performance.

“…The board of directors plays a crucial role in the governance structure [51], and contributes to setting the organization's strategies [52], including those related to CSR [14]. For example, studies show that the composition of the board can influence CSR reporting [53] and the firm's CSR performance [52,54]. However, few studies have investigated the governance of cooperatives [2,55,56] and the role that their directors play [16,24], despite the fact that in cooperatives, ownership type influences governance structure [2,56] and therefore CSR strategy [36].…”

“…As a result, the directors' influence on the CSR strategy could be stronger in a cooperative, especially since, generally speaking, the vested interest they have in the organization acts as an incentive to improve the cooperative's CSR performance. [54]. Finally, the directors are usually deeply knowledgeable about their community and actively involved in it [24].…”

Cooperatives, which have a dual mission that includes both business and social goals, are of particular interest for the study of corporate social responsibility (CSR). The aim of this study was to examine how cooperative directors influence the CSR strategies of their organization. We used a multi-level conceptual framework, consisting of micro, meso, and macro levels, to analyze qualitative data (20 interviews, observation of two board meetings and analysis of over 25 public documents) collected through a case study design that focused on the directors of three financial cooperatives operating under a large group of Canadian financial service cooperatives. Our study contributes first by building on prior studies that link CSR goals to the cooperatives’ dual mission and commitment to improving their community. We enrich prior findings by showing how directors play a crucial role in the enactment of the social dimension of CSR, but that conversely, cooperatives are vehicles for directors who want to contribute to the improvement of their community, thus creating a virtuous circle. Secondly, comparing bureaus operating in urban and rural areas allows us to show how the specificities of the community in which a cooperative evolves influence the approach of the directors towards the environmental dimension of CSR.

The present study examines the literature on the corporate boardroom through the lens of gender diversity. The study identified 1413 studies from Scopus database to identify the corporate board gender diversity ranging from a period of 1998 to 2021 (November). The identified studies are reviewed by using VOS viewer software and R-Studio. The study also employed META analysis to further analyse the data and draw meaningful results. The study identifies the current themes in the literature of corporate boardroom diversity, find impediments to the growth in literature, find the most relevant paper over the years, most prolific authors, and most influential journal. The study also suggests the further scope of the study. We conclude by providing the five potential emerging research directions. The study identifies and discusses the main areas and current development in the field of corporate board diversity in terms of gender and suggests future research directions.
