摘要：In this paper, we focus on the effect of managerial ability on the differentiation in corporate social responsibility activities. Using a sample of China's A-share listed firms from 2008 to 2022, we find that managerial ability is significantly and positively related to the degree of differentiation in CSR practices. High-ability managers implement differentiated CSR to gain competitiveness. This effect is more significant when the product market is highly competitive, the customers are distant, the dependence on external financing is high, and the company has low accounting comparability. In such cases, high-ability managers have a stronger incentive to use differentiated CSR behaviors to improve the company's image.
