• Board members who serve on multiple boards exert both positive and negative effects on firm performance, and these effects depend on the firm’s relative resources. • Firms with fewer resources perform better when their board members also serve on boards of firms with more resources. • In contrast, firms with greater resources perform worse when their board members also serve on boards with more resources constraints.
