Cadres' Grassroots Working Experience and Regional Business Environment Construction: An Empirical Study Based on the Resumes of Standing Committee Members of Provincial Party Committees

This study reveals the structural factors that influence the improvement of the business environment from a humanistic perspective. Using the example of provincial party committee members, it examines the relationship between individual characteristics and grassroots experiences of these members and the improvement of the business environment in various provinces. The research has found that provincial party committee members with grassroots work experience in non-governmental sectors contribute significantly to the enhancement of the local business environment. This enhancement is particularly evident in the improvement of governmental efficiency, financial services, market environment, and human resources in their jurisdictions. However, no significant correlation has been found between the individual characteristics or grassroots experiences in party and government departments of these members and the improvement of the regional business environment. Therefore, continuously optimizing the business environment is fundamental to cultivating new productive forces. China should strengthen the construction of grassroots cadres, employ talents without prejudice, and build robust leadership teams. Aiming at creating the optimal business environment from a regional long-term perspective, the focus should be on enhancing public services and the innovation environment, improving the professional capabilities and performance levels of leading cadres, and continuously promoting the optimization of the business environment.
