Topic: Confucian Values of Top Executives and Corporate Governance in China

Speaker: David H. Zhu,Arizona State University

Time: Friday, 1 December, 14:00-15:30 pm

Location: Room 213 , Guanghua Building 2

Abstract:

Although top executives’ values are widely believed to influence not only their strategic choices but also their decision-making processes, only a handful of studies have examined American CEOs’ liberalism and conservatism orientation. In the present study, we start to examine how one of the most prevailing values in East Asian, namely Confucianism, may influence top executives’ major decisions in China. We focus on the central value of Confucianism, namely the prosocial value, and explain how it influences major corporate governance practices in China. We theorize that a board chair’s prosocial value tends to positively influence the compensation level of employees and top management team members, but negatively influence the compensation level of the chair and the degree to which chair’s compensation is decoupled from firm performance. In addition, we theorize that a chair’s prosocial value tends to increase the charitable donations of the firm and reduce the firm’s tendency to exploit exchange partners and minority shareholders. We utilize a comprehensive dataset that includes all listed private firms in China to test our hypotheses and found support for our theoretical predictions. This research challenges the prevailing assumption in Western theories about executives’ homogeneous tendency to pursue self-interest and extends research on top executives’ values to examine how traditional values in East Asia may influence strategic leadership and major organizational outcomes.
