摘要:     实践中高管兼任是企业经营中的普遍现象,但鲜有文献考察兼任衍生的不同关系联结形态对企业创新的影响。结合松散耦合与同群效应,基于中国汽车产业上市公司2008—2020年数据,使用负二项回归模型,实证研究发现:(1)高管联结多样性正向促进企业创新,而高管联结深度对企业创新具有U型作用。(2)地理重叠度的提高加强了高管联结多样性对企业创新的正向影响;但使高管联结深度对企业创新的U型作用变平缓。(3)市场接触度在高管联结多样性与企业创新间的中介作用得到验证,而市场接触有效性在高管联结深度与企业创新间起遮掩作用。该结果在理论上丰富了高管联结关系对创新的差异化作用,在实践上为企业合理维持与连锁公司的接触距离进而有效利用高管个人资源推动企业创新提供了有价值的建议。

Abstract:     In practice, it is a common phenomenon that executives hold concurrent positions in enterprise management, which may form different forms of executive′s ties and have differentiated effects, and it is of great practical significance to identify which types of executive′s ties can help enterprises to innovate and develop. The existing research shows that different types of executive′s ties can produce different loose coupling structures, and the theory of loose coupling helps to explain why executive′s ties may have different effects on corporate innovation. However, there are few literatures to investigate the influence of different types of executive′s ties on corporate innovation. Combining the theory of loose coupling and peer effect, based on the data of listed companies in China automobile industry from 2008 to 2020, this paper tested the above-mentioned innovation paradox by the negative binomial regression analysis. The results showed that: (1) the diversity of executive′s ties positively promotes corporate innovation, while the depth of executive′s ties has a U-shaped effect on corporate innovation. (2) The increase of geographical overlap strengthens the positive influence of the diversity of executive connections on corporate innovation; However, it makes the U-shaped effect of the depth of executive′s ties on corporate innovation smooth. (3) The mediating effect of market contact degree between the diversity of executive′s ties and corporate innovation has been verified, while the effectiveness of market contact plays a masking role between the depth of executive′s ties and corporate innovation. This result will undoubtedly enrich the differentiation effect of executive linkage on innovation in theory, expand the theoretical boundary between loose coupling theory and peer effect theory, and help the academic circles to dialectically understand the peer effect of executive′s ties. In practice, it will provide some valuable suggestions for enterprises to reasonably maintain the contact distance with chain companies, guide enterprises to better stimulate the innovative potential of executive′s ties, and prevent them from falling into blind peer imitation.
