Publication: ICCREM 2014: Smart Construction and Management in the Context of New Technology
Abstract
With the rapid development of the social economy, women play an increasingly important role in the workplace. Male and female senior executives have different risk preferences and behavior in regards to organizational behavior, which has an impact on the decision-making team. The real estate industry has many characteristics, such as a large amount of funds, high return, high risk, and high value-added industries. Therefore, the choice of real estate enterprises, as an example of female participation, has some practical significance and innovation. First, the empirical part of this article continued the business performance factor analysis, drawing the conclusions that for more women in the top management team, to a certain extent:(1) the TMT scale is larger; (2) the enterprise scale is larger; and (3) business performance is better. Through the regression analysis and conclusion, it was found that:(1) the higher the level of education, the better the enterprise performance of female chief executives; and (2) senior womens' age is negatively correlated with firm performance. Therefore, as the proportion of women in top management teams increases, we should also pay attention to the influence of senior women's age level and education level on the performance of enterprises.
