组织转型的秩序

组织也有思维惯性,打破增长型思维,确立一条非增长的路,才会看到机会。大概20年前我开始做"中国领先企业的研究",在这20年研究过程中,我最深的感受就是,我们的企业在发展到一定阶段的时候,遇到的最大挑战是组织的瓶颈和惯性。一个组织到底有什么样的思维惯性?这对企业来讲是至关重要的。我们常常说改革难、转型难,很大原因是整个组织的思维惯性卡了壳。     

浅析企业持续技术创新中的行为惯性

企业发展就要进行持续的技术创新,在这一过程中,企业具有对自身发展运动范式改变的抵制性质,即惯性.本文分析了企业在持续技术创新中的行为惯性特征以及惯性表现,以期对企业持续技术创新有所启示.     

组织惯性研究综述

组织惯性能确保企业稳定发展,但随着企业面临环境的不确定性增加,组织惯性抵制变革的特征已成为企业走向衰败的重要原因,因此对组织惯性的研究日益受到学术界的关注。本文对国内外文献中组织惯性的内涵、影响因素、组织惯性与企业绩效之间的关系进行了系统的归纳和总结。     

企业并购惯性实证研究

在并购活动日益频繁的今天,并购已经成为企业快速成长与扩张的一条重要途径。本文认为对于并购活动与企业价值之间的关系应该从企业长期发展过程角度出发,动态地分析企业在一段时间里实施的并购活动及战略调整与调整前后经营绩效变化的关联。本文通过对泸天化、燕京啤酒两家上市公司并购发展轨迹的研究发现,惯性在两家企业的并购过程中发挥了主导作用。研究表明,两家企业的并购惯性均呈现出先增强、再减弱的变化趋势,这种并购惯性的间歇性,有利于企业通过有效的资源整合,提升企业总体经营绩效。

知识惯性一定会阻碍服务企业绩效的提升吗？——基于KIBS企业的实证

文章基于知识管理和组织学习理论,针对知识惯性悖论,以组织学习为中介变量,构建知识惯性影响服务企业绩效的概念模型,并对长三角和珠三角地区211家KIBS企业进行实证研究。研究结果显示：（1）程序惯性和资讯惯性均会直接阻碍服务企业绩效的提升,程序惯性还会通过利用式学习和探索式学习这两种组织学习活动间接阻碍服务企业绩效的提升,资讯惯性则仅通过利用式学习间接阻碍服务企业绩效的提升;（2）经验惯性不仅不会阻碍服务企业绩效的提升,反而会通过利用式学习和探索式学习间接促进服务企业绩效的提升;（3）利用式学习和探索式学习均会对服务企业绩效产生显著的直接促进作用。     

论自我利益与社会利益间的博弈

2008年发生了太多的事件,三聚氰胺等食品安全事件、美国家乐福踩踏事件、湖南郴州腐败案等。每一个事件都不得不让人思考:人究竟需要什么?人为什么会产生这样或那样的行为?同样的需求,为何人们表现出千差万别的行为?以马斯洛需求层次理论为代表的传统理论似乎不能解释这一切。笔者尝试着通过对大量的实例分析及结合多种理论来论述人们产生这样或那样的行为是由于自我利益与社会利益间的博弈结果。     

The cognitive perspective: a valuable tool for answering entrepreneurship's basic “why” questions

It is suggested that a cognitive perspective may provide important insights into key aspects of the entrepreneurial process. Specifically, it is proposed that this perspective—which has yielded impressive results in many other fields—can help the field of entrepreneurship to answer three basic questions it has long addressed: (1) Why do some persons but not others choose to become entrepreneurs? (2) Why do some persons but not others recognize opportunities for new products or services that can be profitably exploited? (3) Why are some entrepreneurs so much more successful than others? Specific cognitive factors relevant to each of these questions are identified, and their potential effects are described. It is suggested that a cognitive perspective can prove beneficial both to researchers wishing to understand entrepreneurship as a process and to practitioners hoping to assist entrepreneurs in their efforts to create successful new ventures.     

Entrepreneurs as intermediaries

This paper sketches the contours of a theory of entrepreneurship focusing on the nature of entrepreneurship as intermediation under information asymmetries. While entrepreneurship, strategy, and finance researchers have studied the relationship between entrepreneurs and intermediaries, they tend to treat intermediaries, such as venture capitalists, as a separate organizational form that is parallel with (start-up) entrepreneurs. In this paper, we consider entrepreneurs as intermediaries who discover, create, and exploit entrepreneurial opportunities by bearing uncertainties stemming from intermediation between potential buyers and sellers under information asymmetries. Specifically, we focus on two key questions in entrepreneurship research: (1) Why do entrepreneurs arise and exist at all? (2) Why do some entrepreneurs perform better than others in creating entrepreneurial opportunities and ultimately creating wealth? Our discussion culminates in a new research agenda with four testable propositions.     

How useful are IT research and analysis services?

How do firms keep abreast of new waves of information technology (IT) innovations such as CRM and Web services? Many engage IT research and analysis (R&A) firms such as Gartner Group and Forrester Research. But how do buyers of IT R&A offerings actually make use of these services, and how useful do they find them? Why do some companies choose not to use IT R&A services? We examine these questions in the context of a survey, and find that users and non-users of IT R&A services can be classified. Users fall into three groups: proactive, reactive and situational. Non-users are either cost-conscious or need-doubters. We compare the different groups and suggest the implications for management.     

Advertising Expenditures by Industries

Why do industries vary in their advertising intensity? In this paper, the author reviews the evidence of econometric studies and of business historians, and contributes some new findings of his own. He concludes that, of the many causes that are responsible, one of the most important and neglected is what Borden has called ‘the nature of the product’.     

Unconventional monetary policy and the role of central banks

Over the last few years, central banks in industrial countries have undertaken a variety of policies that deviated from ordinary monetary policy. Why were these policies used? Did they work? What will be the effect of phasing them out? And what long-term concerns do they raise? Clearly, markets were broken, and there was a need to repair them. Some of these innovative instruments seemed to have worked quite well. But now central banks are struggling to get inflation up into their target bands. Large central bank balance sheets may create needed safe, short-term instruments, but take much liquidity management away from the private sector, while tempting governments to use them for other purposes. Sober thinkers need to examine the experience of the last few years and ask again, what should central banks be asked to do and what ought to be the range of actions they can take?     

Moving forward: Balancing the financial and emotional costs of business failure

Why do owner-managers delay business failure when it is financially costly to do so? In this paper we acknowledge that delaying business failure can be financially costly to the owner-manager and the more costly the delay, the more difficult the recovery. But we complement this financial perspective by introducing the notion of anticipatory grief as a mechanism for reducing the level of grief triggered by the failure event, which reduces the emotional costs of business failure. We propose that under some circumstances delaying business failure can help balance the financial and emotional costs of business failure to enhance an owner-manager's overall recovery — some persistence may be beneficial to recovery and promote subsequent entrepreneurial action.
