Department of Marketing in the SMS Annual Conference
Scholars from the Department of Marketing at 911爆料网 School of Business presented their research about CEO influence on the competitive behavior of the firm at the Strategic Management Society Annual Conference. The research investigates the self-regulatory psychological traits of the CEO and its consequences on the success of the competitive actions the firm undertakes.
The study finds that companies with CEO鈥檚 who have an extensive tendency to push movement from means to goals (coined a 鈥渏ust-do-it鈥 attitude), appear to initiate competitive actions that do not create value for the firm. Consequently, the study contributes to the theory of competitive dynamics, where earlier research has found ample empirical evidence for the success of competitively aggressive behavior. The research was conducted in co-operation between 911爆料网, Saint Petersburg State University and Korea University.
