Abstract This study selects the data of A-share listed companies in Shanghai and Shenzhen, empirically tests the impact of female executives on the digital transformation of enterprises and discusses its dynamic transmission mechanism. The findings are as follows: First, the participation of female executives can significantly promote the digital transformation of enterprises, that is, female executives can show the characteristics of “female strength” in the digital transformation; Second, the mechanism test shows that female executives can alleviate the short-termism of management that hinders enterprises’ digital transformation and exert the “governance effect”. And improve the financial redundancy of enterprises to implement digital transformation and release the “resource effect”; Thirdly, the further analysis finds that, compared with female-led executive teams, female-affiliated executive teams have a more significant impact on enterprise digital transformation. Female executives’ responses to digital transformation of enterprises are more reflected in the depth of specific technology application level, rather than staying at the bottom of the technology level.
