This is surprising as research in the fields of cognitive psychology and medicine shows quite consistently that visual aids have positive effects on decision makers’ comprehension of the issues at hand and – consequently – their decision outcomes. In this paper, we build on cognitive psychology and strategic cognition research to introduce strategic problem comprehension as a concept that links information visualization and strategic decision outcomes. We hypothesize that information visualization leads to higher levels of strategic problem comprehension, as it fosters the integration and comparison of relevant information, which subsequently improves strategic decision outcomes. Furthermore, we identify overconfidence as a boundary condition for the effect of information visualization on strategic problem comprehension Two vignette-based decision experiments involving 62 graduate-level management students and 79 executives, respectively, confirm our hypotheses. Our study contributes to strategic cognition research by specifying the important impact of information visualization as well as strategic problem comprehension for strategic decision-making.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48290,"journal":{"name":"European Management Journal","volume":"43 1","pages":"Pages 130-141"},"PeriodicalIF":7.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135605471","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a dataset of US public firms spanning from 1994 to 2019, we first examine the relationship between CEO overconfidence and customer satisfaction, focusing on the mediating role of R&amp;D and advertising expenditures, and the moderating role of CEO equity-based compensation. We find that CEO overconfidence positively influences customer satisfaction, and this positive impact is partially mediated by R&amp;D and advertising. In addition, moderated path analysis indicates that CEO equity-based compensation increases the indirect effect of CEO overconfidence on customer satisfaction. We next examine and document that CEO overconfidence moderates the positive impact of customer satisfaction on firm value. Our results contribute to the extant literature by highlighting that CEO overconfidence not only positively affects shareholder value, but also links to the consequences of strategic marketing decisions, such as customer satisfaction. Our study provides implications for boards of directors, who may need to align CEO and firm marketing spending decisions. It also raises shareholders’ awareness of the presence and impact of CEO overconfidence.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48290,"journal":{"name":"European Management Journal","volume":"43 1","pages":"Pages 101-114"},"PeriodicalIF":7.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138531507","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Empirical studies so far have focused predominantly on its ideation-based outcomes—the number and quality of ideas produced.

We integrate another growing research stream in entrepreneurship—multicultural experience—to probe how the creative, social, and practical cognitive schemas underpinning entrepreneurial imaginativeness can be generated through dimensions of perhaps the most distinctive form of cultural exposure: living abroad. Drawing upon schema theory and combining precepts of Janusian-cognition and abductive thinking, we find support for our theorizing that depth and breadth of experiences of living abroad relate to imaginativeness facets differentially, which in turn can help us understand the extent to which entrepreneurs attempt to launch ventures. We consider both the theoretical and broader practical applications that deliberative imaginativeness cultivation might have, discussing some of wide-reaching and constructive implications this holds for the development of innovative economies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48290,"journal":{"name":"European Management Journal","volume":"43 1","pages":"Pages 59-73"},"PeriodicalIF":7.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139677739","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Adam Smith derives his notion of ‘self-interest’ as concerned with both ‘self-love’ (care for oneself) and ‘sympathy’ (care for others); elements that are increasingly siloed in contemporary business settings. Drawing inspiration from <em>An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations</em> (WoN) and the insightful wisdom of <em>The Theory of Moral Sentiments</em> (TMS), this article aims to underscore how Smith's pivotal concepts, including sympathy, the impartial spectator, and justice, provide a strategic compass for characterizing demand within retail finance markets. More specifically, it argues for the potential for both demand and supply side considerations in sustainable finance to contemplate a more plural concept of self-interest. At the same time, it recognizes that currently available ESG (environmental, social, and governance) products are largely driven by ‘self-love,’ and as such, the ‘sympathy’ of investors is ignored, manipulated, or misplaced. To move beyond this socio-financial dilemma, we propose to segment sustainable finance into the ESG market and the SSI (social and sustainable investment) market, with the latter specifically addressing the demands for ‘sympathy.’ In this context, future work could explore and highlight the role of regulators in ensuring a Smithian self-interest in sustainable finance.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48290,"journal":{"name":"European Management Journal","volume":"42 6","pages":"Pages 855-863"},"PeriodicalIF":7.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142181544","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
