“…A particular strand of literature has focused on examining the links between incentive systems within firms and employee innovation activities. Although large-scale quantitative evidence is sparse, it appears that performance-based reward systems have a positive influence on the creativity and "innovative behavior" of individual employees (De Jong and Den Hartog (2007); Ederer and Manso (2013); Gibbs, Neckermann, and Siemroth (2017)) and, in some cases, on the firm's overall innovation-related activities and outcomes (Leiblein and Madsen, 2009), including for example its patenting propensity (Chen et al, 2016) and quality (Mao and Weathers, 2019). In addition, human resource management and incentive systems play an important role in explaining performance in general (Bloom and Van Reenen, 2011;Bender et al, 2018).…”

“…Additionally, socially responsible firms appeal to certain customers and have been found to be associated with superior sales and firm performance (Lev et al, 2010). Socially responsible firms can also attract and retain high-quality employees, which contributes to firm value (Edmans, 2011;Mao & Weathers, 2019). Furthermore, commitment to social and environmental activities can decrease lawsuits and environmental costs (Dhaliwal et al, 2011) and increase investment efficiency and innovation (Cook et al, 2019).…”

“…For instance, Google’s first core principle of innovation is that “innovation comes from anywhere,” which argues that “innovation is ... everyone’s responsibility. Ideas come from anyone from the very top of the organization to lower ranks and it’s everyone’s responsibility to innovate.” 1 While prior literature recognizes the role of human capital in firm innovation (Chang et al, 2015; Chen et al, 2016; Mao and Weathers, 2019), we examine whether and how the supply of educated workforce affects the quantity and quality of firm’s innovation outputs.…”

“…Second, prior studies find that corporate innovation is affected by inventor fixed effects (Liu et al, 2017), employee satisfaction and treatment (Chen et al, 2016; Mao and Weathers, 2019; Ramdani et al, 2021), compensation incentives (Chang et al, 2015), and labor laws (Acharya et al, 2013). This study adds to prior studies by focusing on the education level of local workforce.…”
