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.
Desautels Professor Zhang said that this comes down to thrill-seeking CEOs tending to love diverse, original projects to a higher degree.
Jingjing Zhang, Assistant Professor in Accounting, was recently awarded a 2017 FRQSC New Academics Grant for her project "Effet d鈥檈ntra卯nement r茅glementaire transfrontalier : impact des r茅formes du processus de notation aux 脡tats-Unis sur la notation des obligations des soci茅t茅s canadiennes. / Cross-Border Regulatory Spillover: The Effect of U.S. Credit Rating Reforms on Canada鈥檚 Corporate Bond Ratings".
Professor Steve Fortin, CPA, CA has been named to the Financial Reporting Accounting Standards Board (AcSB). The AcSB聽is an independent body with the authority to establish accounting standards for use by all Canadian entities outside the public sector. The AcSB serves the public interest by establishing standards for financial reporting by all Canadian private sector entities and by contributing to the development of internationally accepted financial reporting standards.
According to a study performed in part by Desautels Assistant Professor of Accounting , 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.

Abstract:
It鈥檚 the morning of the 29th of August and I hastily get ready for my interview with Vince Spadafora (BCom鈥�04), a senior manager at Deloitte. It鈥檚 already 8 am and the possibility that I may be late for my 10:30 am meeting at Place Ville Marie starts to become more and more likely. Why you ask? (or not) I haven鈥檛 decided on what to wear yet! I narrow my options down to two outfits: A black formal suit or a smart t-shirt with jeans. After a while I decide to go with both! I take the blazer from the suit and wear it with the shirt and jeans; casual yet professional. Perfect!
