Overview of Research on Management Efficiency

Abstract

Management effectiveness has attracted increasing attention in the field of corporate governance research, due to its pivotal role in optimizing resource utilization and improving organizational performance. This study was conducted to provide a comprehensive review of previous academic works on management effectiveness. By applying bibliometric methods, the study collected and analyzed data from 165 articles published on the Scopus database between 1964 and early 2025. The analysis results show that governance effectiveness is a topic that receives increasing attention from the academic community, as demonstrated by the increasing trend in the number of publications over time and the high level of research collaboration among scholars from many countries. These findings clearly reflect the importance of management effectiveness in the context of businesses facing an increasingly fierce and unpredictable global competitive environment.
