Abstract

Abstract Against a backdrop of increasingly severe environmental problems, green development has become a primary goal and crucial mode in the global economy's requirements for sustainable development. China's A-share listed company data from 2008 to 2017 were used to empirically test the impact of senior management's academic experience on corporate green innovation. It was found that senior management's academic expertise positively affected corporate green innovation. Such an effect was more apparent when senior management served in crucial positions or had higher education levels. In addition, when focusing on senior management's characteristics in essential positions, executives’ technical backgrounds, overseas backgrounds, and political connections could significantly enhance the positive impact of their academic experience on corporate green innovation. This study expands the application of the imprinting theory from the perspective of the academic experience of senior management and enriches the research on the factors affecting corporate green innovation. This study provides insight for listed companies with regard to making scientific and reasonable executive appointment decisions, and governments to formulate policies on talent introduction to promote the sustainable development of the global economy.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
