For the CEO-CFO dyad, because the CEO has higher structural power and authority than the CFO, the CFO is more likely to mimic the CEO to create rapport. Yet, CFOs may differ in terms of their goals of affiliation with CEOs. Lakin and Chartrand (2003) find that high selfmonitors (i.e., people with strong ability to regulate behavior to accommodate social situations) engage in more mimicry with powerful others than low self-monitors. In this sense, CFOs with strong goals of ingratiating CEOs will exhibit a higher level of LSM with CEOs than those with weak goals. In the following sections, building on behavioral mimicry research, we develop specific hypotheses on how CEO-CFO LSM in conference calls may predict CFO personal outcomes and organizational outcomes.
