Abstract

Digitalization has brought profound changes to enterprises. As the main decision maker of firm, manager has an important impact on the digital transformation of enterprises that cannot be ignored. Based on the perspective of managerial heterogeneity, we tested the impact of managerial ability on the digital transformation of enterprises in China context. The results showed that managerial ability has a significant positive impact on the digital transformation of enterprises, that is, the stronger the managerial ability, the higher digitalization of firm. The mechanism study confirmed that managerial ability can overcome strategic inertia and improve capital allocation efficiency, then promote digital transformation of firm. Further research showed that the younger the top management team, the more significant the positive effect is; Independent directors can provide resources and play a consulting role to promote the impact of managerial ability on the digital transformation of firm; The older the firm is, the stronger the organizational inertia is, which can impede the impact of managerial ability on the digital transformation of firm. This study enriches the literature about executives, and has a certain practical significance for digitalization implement of enterprises.

管理能力对企业数字化转型的影响研究

数字化给企业带来了深刻的变化。管理者作为企业的主要决策者，对企业的数字化转型有着不可忽视的重要影响。基于管理异质性的视角，我们在中国背景下检验了管理能力对企业数字化转型的影响。研究结果表明，管理能力对企业数字化转型具有显著的正向影响，即管理能力越强，企业数字化程度越高。机制研究证实，管理能力可以克服战略惯性，提高资本配置效率，从而促进企业的数字化转型。进一步的研究表明，高层管理团队越年轻化，正面效应越显著;独立董事可以提供资源并发挥咨询作用，促进管理能力对企业数字化转型的影响;企业年龄越大，组织惯性越强，会阻碍管理能力对企业数字化转型的影响。本研究丰富了有关高管的文献，对企业实施数字化具有一定的现实意义。
