Abstract:
This paper selects 3745 A-share listed companies in Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets as research samples to examine the effects of executives' overseas study background, overseas work background, overseas study and work experiences on corporate performance, and discusses the mediating effect of corporate innovation ability, the moderating effect of region, enterprise type (high-tech enterprise or non-high-tech enterprise) and corporate social responsibility. The results show that the three types of overseas backgrounds of executives play a significant role in promoting corporateperformance, and the background of executives' overseas study and work experiences have a greater effect on the improvement of corporate performance than the two types of a single background. The three types of overseas backgrounds of executives can improve corporate performance by enhancing corporate innovation ability; and regional corporate social responsibility play a moderating role in the relationship between executives' three overseas backgrounds and corporate performance. The research can provide a reference for any corporate in different regions to optimize human resource structure and improve innovation ability and enterprise performance according to local conditions.
