It is find out that they are appointed due to their qualifications such as education, experience, expertise and networks. They want to make contributions to their current companies and be appointed as directors of boards of other companies as well. They try to develop good relations with the chairmen and other directors of the board. Also, they try to improve their performances. This study is a unique study with its approach and findings.
