The objective is to examine the similarities and differences on existing contributions and how it has impacted on the development of management thought. The paper also highlights newly introduced concepts and asserts that these concepts will form the basis for current and future management controvercies as academic, practising and retire managers will continue to discuss them from different perspectives.The paper concludes that the state of management thought will continue to be controvercial since the contributors to the development of management are from different academic background and their views about organizations largely depends on the area of their disposition and also because management is all about human attitude and perception about the emerging situation in their immediate environment.

Expo facto research design was adopted in this study. This study uses secondary data. The data were gotten from Annual reports of selected Banks. The selection of the banks included in the study was based on their performance index from 2010 to 2014. Simple regression analysis was used to analyze the data. Two hypotheses were tested. The result of hypothesis one revealed that the coefficient of determination (R 2 ) value is 0.089 and the P value is 0.201. This implies that there are only 8.9% effects of TMT gender diversity on return on equity, but the P value is greater than 0.05. The result of the second hypothesis revealed that the coefficient of determination (R 2 ) value is 0.012 and the P value is 0.283. This implies that the independent variable account for only 1.2% of the total variation of return on asset within the period ...
