Time: December 26, 2019 (Thursday), 12:30-14:00

Abstract:
Conditions around one’s birth have been argued to could have material consequences during adulthood, including cultural differences that are costly and can impair firm performance. This paper affirms and advances this stream of studies such relatively very limited but rigorous and growing studies in leading journals by examining how the cultural origin in a CEO’s birthplace could lead to cultural differences with far-ranging implications. Specifically, exploiting the cultural differences of rice and wheat farming behind CEO birthplace in China, we show how they could lead to differences in entertainment and travel costs (ETC) spending as well as shareholder values, especially when collectivist rice CEOs manage firms in individualist wheat regions. We thus identify show how intrinsic early value system in people’s culture cultural origin of birthplace can influence firms’ use of ETC as extrinsic incentives to manage cultural differences. Our findings are robust following a battery of control variables and tests including when we focus on firms located along rice-wheat border, change in CEOs, and anti-extravagance event in 2012.
