The dissertation takes executive competency and corporate social responsibility as the object of study, and focuses on the mechanism and executive competency to corporate social responsibility.Based on the previous research, this dissertation studies the mechanism on executive competency and corporate social responsibility by theoretical discussion and empirical research. The followings are main research contents. Firstly, information collected and collated. In order to identify the intrinsic link between the latent variables, the dissertation reviews theories of corporate social responsibility, responsibility management and executive competency by literature combing, interviews and questionnaires. Main research methods are as follows, analysis and synthesis, theoretical exploration and empirical test, qualitative analysis and quantitative research. Secondly, a conceptual model and hypotheses are put forward."ECâ†'CSR" model is summarized as a conceptual model.Then,"Ideologyâ†'Result" path,"Ideologyâ†'Behavior" path and "Behaviorâ†'Result" path are put forward as hypothesis. All the above studies are based on the systems theory as research methodology. Some classical theories mentioned are in the folloeings:stakeholder theory, the theory of business ethics, corporate citizenship theory, people-post match theory and the theory of tacit knowledge. Thirdly, empirical research prepared. Through scientific questionnaire design and data collection, sample data are received and analyzed, which provides the foundation for future empirical research. Fourthly, empirical research is made. The dissertation analyses the fit index of empirical model by AMOS17.0based on reliability and validity testing etc. Then structural equation model is used for empirical analysis, and the hypotheses are further proved by a case.The conclusion of this dissertation can be drawn in the followings:Firstly, according to the degree of its development, executive competency can be described as "’crustal model", namely,"crust"--management knowledge,"mantle"--management skills, and "core"--management quality.
