Tác động của đặc điểm ban lãnh đạo tới hiệu quả hoạt động của các doanh nghiệp Việt Nam
Phạm Thu Thuỷ
Tóm tắt:
Ban lãnh đạo doanh nghiệp, bao gồm hội đồng quản trị (HĐQT) và tổng giám đốc có ảnh hưởng lớn đến các quyết định kinh doanh và hiệu quả hoạt động của doanh nghiệp. Nghiên cứu này tập trung đánh giá tác động của đặc điểm ban lãnh đạo bao gồm tuổi, giới tính tổng giám đốc và quy mô HĐQT tới hiệu quả hoạt động của 148 doanh nghiệp phi tài chính tại Việt Nam trong giai đoạn 2013–2022 được chia theo hai nhóm quy mô doanh nghiệp. Kết quả của phương pháp ước lượng bình phương tối thiểu tổng quát (FGLS) cho thấy tuổi của tổng giám đốc có tác động cùng chiều tới hiệu quả hoạt động của doanh nghiệp, đặc biệt là những doanh nghiệp có quy mô lớn, trong khi giới tính của tổng giám đốc không có tác động có ý nghĩa thống kê. Quy mô HĐQT cũng có tác động cùng chiều ở các doanh nghiệp quy mô lớn, và có tác động ngược chiều ở những doanh nghiệp mang quy mô nhỏ. Kết quả nghiên cứu có thể đưa ra các gợi ý góp phần phát triển bền vững những doanh nghiệp tại Việt Nam.

The Impact of Leadership Characteristics on the Performance of Vietnamese Enterprises
Abstract:
The leadership team of a company, including the Board of Directors and the CEO, plays a significant role in the company’s business decisions and overall organizational performance. This study focuses on evaluating the impact of leadership characteristics, including the CEO's age, gender, and Board size on the operational performance of 148 non-financial enterprises in Vietnam during the period from 2013 to 2022, with a division between two groups based on enterprise size. The results of the FGLS estimation method indicate that the CEO's age positively affects the company's performance, especially in large enterprises, while the CEO's gender does not have a statistically significant impact. The size of the Board also shows a positive effect on large enterprises, but a negative effect on small ones. The findings of this study could provide insights that contribute to the sustainable development of businesses in Vietnam.
