Abstract Based on the social emotional wealth theory and the relatives dependence hypothesis, using the method of re-classification and the sample of family listed firms during 2010 to 2015, we mainly study the influence of the kinship female executives and independent female executives on the choice of corporate innovation strategy from the view of family attributes and gender attributes. Results found that: On the whole, the existence of family female core executives have a negative impact on corporate innovation, but further classification found that negative correlation between female executives and innovation only presented in the sample of independent female executives, and for the kinship female executives, family attributes have reversed the negative correlation of gender attributes, there is no significant difference on innovation with male executives, and contributed to innovation inputs compared with independent female executives. Besides, the results also confirmed that it’s different for the choice of innovative strategies of female executives under different relatives dependence, the closer the kinship, the stronger the promoting effect on innovation.
