This study focuses on exploring the relationship between chief executive officer (CEO) duality and firm performance. We focus on how the size and corporate social responsibility (CSR) of firms moderate this relationship. In terms of size, business organizations are of two types: small and large firms. This study uses datasets of listed Chinese business firms included in the China Stock Market and Accounting Research database. It employs a generalized method of moment’s technique to explore the connection between CEO duality and the performance of Chinese business firms through double mediation effects. Our empirical analysis showed that CEO duality has a significant negative relationship with firm performance. We also explored the moderating effects of firm size (small and large) and CSR practices on the relationship between CEO duality and improved performance of Chinese firms. Large firms and CSR practices showed significant and positive moderating effects on the relationship between CEO duality and firm performance. Conversely, with CEO duality, small firms showed a negative moderating influence on firm performance. This inclusive model provides valuable insights into how the dual role of the CEO of a firm affected the performance of Chinese firms through the moderating role of CSR practices and firm size for better business performance. The study offers empirical and theoretical contributions to the corporate governance literature. This research framework might help researchers in designing robust strategies to evaluate the effects on firm performance. Researchers may gain helpful insights using this methodology.

With the increasing concerns of hypergrowth in order to compete in the international markets and survive, this study aids all firms in various industries, entrepreneurs and decision makers and draw their attention to business models and hypergrowth strategies that are applied by the fast-growing firms in the world. This study investigates the impact of hypergrowth strategy- leveraging assets that developed by Salim, (2014) and firm performance in exponential organizations; The sample size tested constituted of (34) exponential organizations form the fortune 500 and multiple regressions via Stata version 15 was applied for the time period of (2016-2019). Preliminary analysis was conducted to check the assumptions related to the regression models which include unit root, autocorrelation, residuals normality and heteroskedasticity issues. The results showed significant positive relationships between Growth in Fixed Assets (leveraging Assets strategy) and firm performance measured by ROA and ROE whereas, the moderating role of marketing spending and firm size showed insignificant impact in the relationship.

This study aimed to examine the impact of entrepreneurial orientation on firm performance through project success and moderating role of absorptive capacity. A deductive approach was used to test the model empirically. Primary data were collected at one point in time from employees of small and medium enterprises in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. 354 responses were used for final data analysis. The structure Equation Modeling (SEM) technique was used to analyze the hypothesized relationships by using the Smart PLS3. The findings indicate that entrepreneurial orientation has a significant impact on firm performance and project success also significantly mediates this relationship. Moreover, absorptive capacity moderates the entrepreneurial orientation impact on project success this relation becomes stronger in the presence of absorptive capacity. This study adds value to the literature and proves the mediating role of project success and moderating role of absorptive capacity. Practically, it highlights the importance of entrepreneurial activities for firm performance and project success.
