CEO founder status and firm financial performance
研究94家创始人管理与非创始人管理企业，发现CEO是否创始人本身对3年持有期股票回报无显著影响，但企业规模与年龄会调节这一关系。
Founders create their organizations, yet are often expected to eventually become liabilities to these same organizations. Past empirical research on the relationship between CEO founder status (i.e., is the CEO also the founder?) and firm performance has yielded inconsistent results. This study of 94 founder- and nonfounder-managed firms finds that founder management has no main effect on stock returns over a 3-year holding period, but that firm size and firm age moderate the CEO founder status–firm performance relationship.
