| dc.description.abstract | This research examined the canonical relationship that exist between firm performance dimensions and board characteristics dimensions using Nigeria listed companies. The findings of this study clearly shows that there is no significant association between corporate performance and board characteristics dimensions but that there is the possibility that some bored attributes such as board gender diversity and board independence drives performance rather than performance driving changes in board characteristics in Nigerian listed companies. This study therefore provides empirical research evidence that support an insignificant relationship between firm performance dimensions and board characteristics dimension in Nigeria. This study also expanded empirical research on canonical correlation analysis application in Nigeria because a limited number of studies have been conducted in this area. | en_US |
