We seek to understand the motivation and conditions under which CEOs may influence R&D spending changes. Drawing on regulatory focus theory, this study investigates how CEO motivation affects changes in firm R&D spending. We explore the effect of CEO promotion and prevention foci on yearly R&D increase
The Owner Birth Order and R&D Investments in Chinese Family Firms Wen Helena Li, Jin-hui Luo, Marco De Sisto, and Timothy Bartram kHUB post date: June 10, 2022 Originally published: May 29, 2021 (PDMA JPIM • Vol. 38, Issue 4 • July 2021) Read time: 45 minutes Access the Full Article Family background has a significant impact on family firms’ strategies such as innovation investments. Going beyond prior studies that exclusively focus on how family governance and management factors determine research and development (R&D) investment decisions, this study investigates a family science factor: family firm owner's birth order, defined as the relative rank of the owner in terms of the age hierarchy among siblings in the family. Joining the family niche model of birth order and socioemotional wealth perspective, we propose that later-born family firm owners tend to be risk-takers and invest more in R&D projects compared with their earlier-born counterparts. We further examine how the two other powerful decision-makers within family firms (i.e., chairperson of the board and CEO) enable or constrain the owner's birth order–R&D investment relationship
