Abstract
Based on the team faultlines theory, this paper examines the impact of different types of board faultlines on innovation in cross-border mergers and acquisitions (M&As). Using the data of Chinese firms’ cross-border M&As, this paper finds that information-based faultlines and social category faultlines have an inverted U-shaped relationship with innovation in cross-border M&As. Cultural distance weakens the role of information-based faultlines on innovation in cross-border M&As. This paper enriches the research on the factors influencing innovation in cross-border M&As and provides a basis for firms to select board members and create suitable board faultlines.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Innovation (IJIM) is the official journal of the International Society of Professional Innovation Management (ISPIM). Both the IJIM and ISPIM adopt a multi-disciplinary approach to addressing the many challenges of managing innovation, rather than a narrow focus on a single aspect such as technology, R&D or new product development. Both are also international, inclusive & practical, and encourage active interaction between academics, managers and consultants.
