可持续竞争优势的源头：核心竞争力

在竞争中，有的企业长盛不衰，有的企业成功一时，有的企业一点成功机会也没有；在多元化经营战略中，有的企业屡战屡胜，而有的企业不仅难以在新的领域中创造竞争优势，而且甚至丧失了原有领域的竞争优势，更有甚，多元化经营拖垮了企业。有学从企业所处行业、所有制结构、组织形式、规模和管理制度等方面都做过有益的实证研究，

诚信是指企业以“诚信”原则作为基本的商业道德标准和根本的行为；隹则，全面、充分履行与客户的约定义务，抵制各种商业欺诈行为。诚信是企业的立身之本，也是客户对企业的最基本、最原则的要求。诚信凝聚了企业强有力的竞争优势，是企业实现利润最大化的源泉。我国中小企业数量众多、结构复杂，加强中小企业的诚信管理成为当务之急。笔者以为应从以下几方面来加强我国中小企业的诚信管理。

创新：21世纪的竞争优势

THE ROLE OF MANAGEMENT CONSULTANTS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY: THE INDISSOLUBLE NATURE OF SOCIO-POLITICAL AND TECHNICAL SKILLS*

This paper explores the role of management consultants in the development of information technology (IT) in organizations. Contending that the process of IT systems development is characterized by the exercise of power, the central theme of the argument concerns the indissoluble nature of the technical and socio-political skills inherent in IT consultancy practice. IT consultancy practice is not just socio-political when winning a contract - the sales pitch - and technical when developing an IT system. Rather, socio-political skills centred on the mobilization of discursive and symbolic resources are an inherent part of the construction of such systems.     

PROBLEM-SOLUTIONS IN THE MANAGEMENT OF INFORMATION SYSTEMS EXPERTISE

This article uses evidence on the management of Information Systems (IS) expertise to critique conventional understandings of the management of expert groups. These tend to focus on problems of ‘integration’ or ‘control’ at the point of production. But this neglects the interplay between organizations and the wider structure of IS expertise; the latter being shaped by the evolving computer technology regime and the IS occupation's ability to colonize technological knowledge. In this context, the management of expertise is better viewed as an evolving series of ‘problem-solutions’. ‘Hybrid managers’ and ‘strategic information systems’ are cited as instances of such problem-solutions.     

THE EFFECTS OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY ON STRATEGIC DECISION MAKING

Information technology (IT) may be defined as computer-based technology for the storage, accessing, processing and communication of information. Many writers have suggested that the use of IT should improve strategic decisions and have developed a number of propositions about the effects of IT on strategic decision making. However, no study has yet addressed the specific effects of IT on major phases of this process. Using Mintzberg, Raisinghani and Theoret's (1976, ‘The structure of unstructured decision processes’, Administrative Science Quarterly, 21, 2, 246–75) strategic decision-making model, this study assessed the effects of IT on the major phases of the process through an intensive examination of eight decisions in four companies. the results of the study provide new information on the specific ways IT improves decision-making efficiency and effectiveness at each stage of the strategic decision process.     

ACQUISITION AND DIVESTITURE AS A RESPONSE TO COMPETITIVE POSITION AND MARKET STRUCTURE

One theory of acquisition motivation holds that some acquisition activity is a defensive reaction to weak or deteriorating industry conditions and competitive position. Designated the ‘defensive diversification hypothesis’, this motive has not been tested directly by relating firms' competitive circumstances to their subsequent acquisitive behaviour. This study does so. Results show that a firm's prior circumstances are related to the intensity of both its acquisitions and divestitures, as well as the type of firms acquired.     

A SYSTEMS APPROACH TO BANK PRUDENTIAL MANAGEMENT AND SUPERVISION: THE UTILIZATION OF FEEDFORWARD CONTROL

This paper explores the operational characteristics of a new systems approach for monitoring the prudential strength, or safety, of modern commercial banks. It exploits the principle of feedforward control through the simulated contingency analysis of a bank's planned financial and associated management positions. This approach will be shown to have operational potential for both individual bank managements and the supervisory authorities who monitor the prudential soundness of all banks. Most of the research to date in this field has been concerned with assessing the adequacy of a bank's capital funds, its capital adequacy position. The primary function of bank capital is to act as a kind of internal insurance fund in order to protect a bank against uncertainties.
