A little adrenaline goes a long way when it comes to business perspectives
A blog post at Virgin.com looks at how adventure-seeking CEOs come at business from a more open, experimental angle.
Desautels Professor Jingjing Zhang鈥檚 research shows that chief execs who fly small airplanes in their off-hours tend to be more open to innovation.
Desautels researchers link thrill-seeking CEOs to increased innovation
CEOs with a real taste for excitement can be a company鈥檚 best bet for upping its innovation cred, according to a paper co-authored by a Desautels professor Jingjing Zhang.
The paper studied 88 CEOs who were pilots, comparing them to 1,123 non-pilot chief executives over ten years. Pilot CEOs helped increase their companies鈥� patents by almost 67 per cent.
Adventurous CEOs make great innovators
According to a study performed in part by Desautels Assistant Professor of Accounting Jingjing Zhang, when it comes to chasing innovation, companies with risk-loving CEOs tend to pursue more original projects and 鈥済enerate more patents with greater market impact than their peers.鈥� This is because thrill-seeking personalities tend to be more open to new ideas, which translates well into the business space.
