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.
