Organizational design: A contingency approach: A model for organic management design

For those firms that operate in a stable environment—an unchanging technology and a certain market—a mechanistic management system is efficient. A great many corporations, however, must have a flexible organizational structure, which can adapt to constant changes in technology and fluctuations in the market. These firms are often characterized by their organic approach to management design. In this article, the authors develop a model for organizational design based on the variables of internal needs and external conditions and illustrate their model with nationally known firms as examples. The model's quadrants are: high uncertainty/low integration; high uncertainty/high integration; high certainty/low integration; and high certainty/high integration.

Implanting competitive strategy: A contingency approach

Competitive business strategies are often formulated with little regard given to the articulation format. This paper examines the strategy formulation process from a systems perspective and argues that articulation of a competitive strategy, such that sustained competitive advantage is created, requires consistency along the entire business chain. Internal consistency within the business chain is built through inter‐linkages. The inter‐linkages are made through four inter‐connective elements: human resources, technological resources, information resources and financial resources. It is argued in this paper that the human factor is of major importance since it integrates the other inter‐connective elements and therefore represents a key factor in the process of articulation and implementation. In view of the critical role of the human element in articulation of business strategy for competitive advantage, the paper develops a human‐factor related contingency framework. The developed contingency framework examines Porter's (1980, 1985) generic strategies with respect to congruent requisites necessary for building competitive advantage.

Knocking at the gate: The path to publication for entrepreneurship experiments through the lens of gatekeeping theory

We draw on gatekeeping theory to explore the individual and routine-level criticisms that entrepreneurship experimentalists receive during the review process. Using a multi-study approach, we categorize common gatekeeping themes and present illustrative critiques derived from a unique sample of decision letters and a supplemental survey of entrepreneurship editors. In combination, we extend gatekeeping theory by considering how it applies to the scholarly domain, contribute to the literature by exploring an alternative theoretical explanation as to why entrepreneurship experiments might fail to survive the review process, and finally, provide contextualized recommendations for authors and reviewers of experimental research.     

Innovation and survival of exporters: A contingency perspective

We challenge the traditional view that innovations always help exporters prosper in competitive international market, by developing and testing the premise that the relationship between innovation and export performance is contingent on some important firm-specific idiosyncrasies. With a large dataset of Chinese firms, the empirical results demonstrate that innovation could be detrimental to exporter survival. Such negative effect is more pronounced for firms that have weak profitability and high outstanding receivables, and also for those without foreign ownership. Nonetheless, we also observe a positive relationship between innovation and survival in highly profitable exporters. By identifying the negative rather than conventionally assumed positive effect of innovation, and the conditions under which innovation facilitates or impedes exporter survival, this paper contributes to the literature on the relationship between innovation and export in the context of emerging markets. Our findings have important implications for how managers develop innovation strategy to compete in the export market.

Emotional loyalty and share of wallet: A contingency approach

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether three demographic (age, income, and education) and two situational (relationship duration and product type) customer characteristics moderate the relationship between emotional loyalty and share of wallet. In so doing, this study explicitly examines the extent to which results diverge when using share of wallet versus conative loyalty (i.e., behavioral intentions) as the dependent measure. Data from a sample of US store shoppers (n=604) indicate that education, relationship duration, and product type moderate the effect of emotional loyalty on share of wallet but not on conative loyalty. Implications for retailers are discussed with suggestions for future research.

公平理论在劳资管理中的运用

首先介绍一家中外合资企业薪资收入和人员流失的情况.该合资公司为了便于管理,不直接雇佣员工,而是通过劳务公司作为第三方来间接雇佣,这样,员工所有的保险、医疗以及其它由社会提供的福利保障都是由用人单位通过现金的形式直接支付给劳务公司,而其具体的管理和运作都是有劳务公司负责,这也是许多外国公司常用的一种管理员工的方法,这样,公司的员工就来自多家劳务公司.下表是该公司同一岗位、不同渠道来源的员工的薪资统计表.     

管理层如何从危机中走出来

毫无疑问,危机公关是近些年来的热门课题,罗伯特·希斯著的<危机管理>的多语言版本的畅销把危机公关意识输入了大小企业管理层的大脑,同时像<谁动了我的奶酪>此类书也大有唤醒个人的忧患意识之势.在去年的一场SARS过后,危机管理越来越受到社会各界的关注,其中也不乏成功案例,下面简述的强生和索尼两个案例,正是由于企业及时的反应力和以客户利益为首的观念,才把已经爆发的危机降到了极限,可谓是此类事件中的样板案例.然而只要稍微有些经济头脑的人,就会看到这些挽回的背后是以大把银子为代价的.

Transformation of marketing management in Russia: A qualitative and theory building approach

Casual observers of Russian management are quick to portray a simplistic, well packaged, and seemingly accurate picture of life of Russian managers. Russia, they say, is imploding and disintegrating. In 1992, the inflation rate was 3,000 percent, and in the first 6 months of 1993, the monthly inflation rate ranged from 25 to 30 percent. The gross national product declined 25 percent in 1992 and continued to decline in 1993. Management life in Russia, these observers say, is unbearable, hell. Russian managers have been order-takers from central planners and regulators for more than 70 years. They have been accustomed to working in a stable and predictable environment, and therefore could not possibly be effective in the shock-therapy-induced market economy that began in January, 1992. However, these observers could not be further from the truth. I concluded from my study of Russian management decision making in 1989, 1991, and 1992 that in a rapidly changing and chaotic environment, Russian managers are quick to recognize the effects of the evolving market economy and take rapid corrective or exploitive action. The 3-year effort is a qualitative study of Russian management transformation and the development of a theoretical framework. What I found was that contrary to my findings in 1989 and 1991, the Russian economic shock therapy, which began in 1992, has infused life into Russian managers. As a result, they have been quick to recognize the effects of such economic forces as inflation, uncertainty, competition, consumer selectivity, credit, cash flow, and raw material on their enterprises. Likewise, they were also quick to respond, for example, by restructuring, downsizing, developing more competitive strategies, increasing promotions and sales force, and seeking foreign investors. In these respects, Russian management behavior resembles Western management behavior. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
