With the conditions of whether the CEO got the MBA degree, number of firms where the CEO worked, number of industries where the CEO worked, and whether the CEO held a CEO position at another firm. My study shows that the MBA degree doesn’t matter for CEOs’ ability to manage the firm. The numbers of firms that the CEO worked positively affect the CEOs’ ability to manage but the numbers of industries CEOs worked negatively affect, which means that CEOs should transfer in different firms but in the same industries. And the experience that CEOs held the CEO position positively affect the firms’ performance.
