This study explores the role of knowledge management (KM) in mediating and moderating the relationship between information
technology (IT) and firm performance based upon the data collected from 236 firms in China. Through a structural equation
model and hierarchical regression analysis, we found that KM capability partially mediated the performance impact of IT resources.
Furthermore, KM capability affected the strength of the IT-performance relationship. The theoretical contributions and managerial
implications are discussed and limitations of the study are highlighted accordingly.

Assimilation into society via academic achievement is a premise and practice that is universal in schools and school systems.
Drawing on the testimonies of technological education teachers and the sociology of knowledge literature, this narrative inquiry
research sets the stage for a critical analysis of our reliance on knowledge versus experience in western education policy
and planning. A crisp and constructive analysis of the premises school systems take for granted becomes possible, a case for
transcending limited ways of thinking about knowledge and experience is made.

The adolescence of Asia management research: <Emphasis Type="Italic">APJM</Emphasis>, 1997–2006 总被引:3,自引:3,他引:0

In this article we reflect on the adolescent years of Asia management research published in the Asia Pacific Journal of Management (APJM) by reviewing work published in the past 10 years (1997–2006). We report that during the last decade, APJM has published 223 research articles, written by 373 different authors, who are affiliated with 203 different institutions.
Our discussion of the future of Asia management research is guided by Kuhn’s (Kuhn, T. S. The structure of scientific revolutions. Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1962) perspective on the nonlinear progression of science. We argue that as a growing
community, Asia management research is finding its “identity” and establishing its presence in the larger worldwide management
research community. Following our analysis, we conclude that the growth of Asia management research—as captured by APJM publications—throughout its “adolescent” years has set forth a challenging and exciting path for the future.

This study examines the role of top management team (TMT) member succession in breaking organizational inertia. We compare
the impact of two types of change in TMTs—in member number and demographic heterogeneity—on subsequent strategic reorientation
using data on the diversification activities of firms in the Japanese textile industry. Our findings suggest that executive
succession does not trigger strategic change unless succession entails change in the values and interests of executives embedded
in their demographic traits.

This article addresses how we learn technology across the lifespan. After outlining findings of research into how children,
adolescents, teens and adults learn technology, we address theoretical shifts from sociocultural to technocultural theories
of cognition and reorientations from mediated to cyborgenic learning. The balance of the article describes effective methods
for researching cognition and technology. In the process of outlining key findings from research, we emphasize the links among
methods and theories employed, data produced and conclusions drawn. Our goal is to sketch a lifelong learning context for
undertaking studies of cognition and technology, and to provide a methodological and theoretical analysis for researchers
venturing into this dynamic and volatile field. In summary, we provide a far-ranging agenda for researching cognition and
technology.

The purpose of the paper is to offer a context-specific perspective of gender equality and its implications for equal employment
opportunity in Islamic societies. The paper discusses various discourses on the Islamic perspective of gender and how they
might impact female employment in the formal employment sector. The study highlights some major differences among Muslim countries
with respect to gender ideology and the corresponding prospects for equal employment opportunity. Furthermore, the paper argues
that any attempts to reform the socio-political institutions and labor policies in Islamic societies must be informed by their
particular formal and informal institutional features.

Impact of state ownership and control mechanisms on the performance of group affiliated companies in China 总被引:10,自引:8,他引:2
This paper examines the moderating impact of state ownership and group control mechanisms on the relationship between diversification
and performance of companies affiliated with large business groups in China. We find that the state ownership has enhanced
the performance of group affiliated companies when they adopted higher degrees of diversification. We also find that cash
flow rights have a positive impact on the performance of companies with lower degrees of diversification while in general
group control rights have a negative impact on the performance. These results suggest that a group’s control mechanisms, derived
from pyramid ownership structures, enable the dominant owners to expropriate the value from minority shareholders or tunnel
corporate resources for their own interest.

Future research on human resource management systems in Asia 总被引:4,自引:4,他引:0
Re-emphasizing the need to examine human resource management (HRM) in context, this article builds around four themes. First,
it analyses the main issues discussed in the existing literature regarding HRM in the Asian context. Second, it highlights
the critical challenges facing HRM function in the region. Third, along with the analysis, it presents an agenda for future
research. Fourth, it presents a framework useful for highlighting the context specific nature of Asian HRM functions and the
main determinants of HRM policies and practices from a cross-national comparative perspective.

Knowledge management in technology-focused firms in emerging economies: Caveats on capabilities,networks, and real options 总被引:9,自引:7,他引:2
Garry D. Bruton Gregory G. Dess Jay J. Janney 《Asia Pacific Journal of Management》2007,24(2):115-130
In mature economies, technology-focused industries and the management of knowledge are widely viewed as critical to success.
Increasingly, in emerging economies technology-focused industries and the management of knowledge are also viewed as important.
To date, however, little is known about such activities in emerging economies. Particularly, it is not understood how knowledge
management can impact efforts for corporate renewal in such environments. The literatures of the resource-based view of the
firm, social capital/network theory, and real options theory are vital to providing insights for technology-focused industries
and the management of knowledge in mature economies. In this paper we focus on the caveats when applying such theoretical
foundations to emerging economies. To illustrate these issues we will draw on the largest emergent economy in the world, China.

This paper identifies the importance of both creativity and environmental sustainability for developing individual learners
and society as a whole. It suggests that sometimes these two concepts appear to be in tension and that, politically, each
is often championed by different communities. The relationship between creativity and environmental sustainability is explored
in three separate contexts: in a design and technology schools context where teenage learners are being facilitated to develop
creative responses within design briefs that include environmental considerations; through interviewing student teachers who
have undertaken an ecodesign project; and through interviews with professional ecodesign practitioners. The tensions, compromises
and contradictions evident where there is limited experience of environmental issues is contrasted with the level of optimisation
and creativity engaged when designers have more maturity in this area. Finally, some suggestions are made for taking forward
creativity and environmental sustainability in technology education through an ecodesign capability approach.

The conflicting views about the impact of organizational slack on firm performance call for more powerful theoretic lens to
explore this link. This study finds that institutional theory is insightful to add a deeper and finer-grained understanding
on what is behind the relationship between organizational slack and firm performance during institutional transitions. As
a replication with extension of the research of Tan and Peng (Strategic Management Journal, 24: 1249–1263, 2003), this study not only replicates the impact of organizational slack on firm performance in a broader and more recent context,
but also extends previous work by advocating and enriching the impact of institutional transitions on this link. Using a large
sample of Chinese listed firms, we find that unabsorbed slack is critical for firms to sustain their competitive advantages.
Further, such a positive impact is especially likely to be profound for firms confronting resource scarcity and environmental
dynamism caused by institutional transitions.

Education and training interventions can be evaluated through the success of learning outcomes. Kirkpatrick's four-level model
is a widely accepted and highly popular evaluation tool. However, some criticise the model's shortcomings. This article will
examine the extent to which the four-level model can evaluate design and technology students' learning about aesthetics after
an intervention by reporting our use of an augmented version of the four-level model. We examine the results in terms of students'
reaction to the intervention, their long-term learning and their behaviour changes by studying their visual analyses and drawings
through segment codes. We found that, in order to uncover the obscurities imbedded in aesthetics and to explicate the complexities,
we could not use the four-level-model on its own, but had to revert to a more augmented version.

Recent years have witnessed the surging of Chinese manufacturers, as China has become the world’s factory floor. This paper
presents a case study of one of the most successful manufacturers in China, the Galanz Group, now the world’s largest microwave
manufacturer. Based on theories of multinational corporations from emerging economies, the paper examines the process of Galanz’s
integration into the global market. The company has developed unique competitive strategies that have made it a great success
within China and in overseas markets. The Galanz model suggests strong strategic implications for both Chinese firms and incumbent
multinational corporations.

The paper reports on the trials of a Design and Technology (D&T) unit carried out in three different Indian contexts with
a focus on collaborative learning. Both collaboration and technology education are not common to the Indian school system.
As part of a larger project to introduce technology education, suitable for middle school girls and boys in urban and rural
areas, three culturally appropriate and gender sensitive D&T units were developed. All the units were tried out with middle
school students in different socio-cultural settings: two schools in urban areas (with different languages of teaching and
learning) and one in a rural area. This paper presents details of a unit on puppetry which involved making a puppet and staging
a puppet-show. Aspects of collaboration within and among groups were observed with respect to: roles played by the members,
conflicts and their resolution, sharing of resources, communication and peer review among the students. The trials in the
three clusters indicate the potential of this D&T unit to provide collaborative learning situations for the multicultural
contexts of Indian classrooms.

Evidence of the practical utility of Wong’s emotional intelligence scale in Hong Kong and mainland China 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Emotional intelligence (EI) has been an emerging topic for psychological, educational, and management researchers and consultants
in recent years. However, there is a lack of scientifically valid measures of this concept, especially for those that have
practical utility in the Asian context. Recently, a 40-item forced-choice instrument was developed for Chinese respondents
in Hong Kong. We collected data in three studies to further test the practical utility of this instrument in Hong Kong and
mainland China. The results provided clear evidence for the instrument’s practical utility. More research that uses this measure
in Asian countries is required.

Familial capitalism in global institutional contexts: Implications for corporate governance and entrepreneurship in East Asia 总被引:5,自引:3,他引:2
Lloyd P. Steier 《Asia Pacific Journal of Management》2009,26(3):513-535
Many of the world’s firms have a familial dimension; including some of the most dynamic and emerging markets of East Asia.
However, this important aspect of organizing economic activity remains understudied and misunderstood. A central theme of
this article is that while families matter in economic activity throughout the world, they matter in different ways depending
on the institutional context. To illustrate this theme a varieties of capitalism perspective is used to develop a rudimentary
global comparative framework. Institutional context is portrayed as a key determinant of the degree and type of family governance
that typify national economies. Implications for corporate governance and entrepreneurship in East Asia are discussed.

The influence of firm,industry and network on the corporate social performance of Japanese firms 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1

We develop and test the thesis that corporate social performance (CSP) constitutes a socially constructed and shared strategic asset, which is not only influenced by factors specific to a firm, but also by the social performance of firms
in its industry and inter-corporate network. Using variance decomposition, we analyze data from 130 large Japanese firms and
find that both firm-specific and industry-level factors account for significant variance in CSP, but network-level factors
do not.

Employee stock ownership and corporate R&D expenditures: evidence from Taiwan's information-technology industry 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This study investigates how employee stock ownership affects corporate R&D expenditures for information-technology firms listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange during 1996–2001. The empirical results indicate a positive association between implementing employee stock ownership and R&D expenditures. The evidence thus supports the argument that employee stock ownership could help alleviate agency conflicts between employees and shareholders, and reduce agency costs, in turn enabling firms to make sizable R&D expenditures.
