Although government withdrawal from business has traditionally been considered a key reform in developing a market economy,
the Chinese government remains active. This study uses the social psychological theory of cooperation and competition to analyze
the interdependence between government and business. Structural equation results of interviews of specific incidents collected
from 105 government officials and business people in Shanghai, China, support the model that cooperative, but not competitive
or independent, goals induce open-minded discussions that in turn strengthen their relationships, accomplish tasks, foster
confidence they will work productively in the future, and develop their industry and the marketplace.

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.

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.

Guanxi and leader member relationships between American managers and Chinese employees: open-minded dialogue as mediator 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Effective open relationships with employees can help foreign managers rely upon and utilize the local knowledge of their employees.
One hundred and sixty-three Chinese employees from various industries in China were surveyed on their relationships (leadership–member
relationship and personal guanxi) with American and Chinese managers, their constructive controversy, that is, their constructive
controversy with them, and the job assignments and promotions received from their managers. Results support the hypotheses
that quality leader–member relationship and personal guanxi promoted their constructive controversy, which in turn facilitated
employees receiving challenging jobs and promotions. Results suggest that leader–member relationship and Chinese value of
guanxi may be important for enhancing their constructive controversy; this kind of open dialogue can be a foundation upon
which American managers can develop the confidence to give their Chinese employees challenging tasks and promotions.

How does strategic orientation matter in Chinese firms? 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
As China continues to transition toward a market economy, how strategic orientation affects firm performance has received
significant attention. This article reviews the extant literature with a framework that depicts contemporary work on strategic
orientation, the drivers of strategic orientation, and its boundary conditions. We identify important research gaps and propose
to integrate institutional theory, dynamic capability perspective, and the knowledge-based view within the strategic orientation
research stream for future investigations.

This study examines the influence of economic and political factors that contribute to the convergence and/or divergence in
value priorities of five East Asian societies—China, Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan. We find that political
and social-economic factors influence the values orientations of managers within this region. However, economic development
level is an insufficient explanation for values convergence without consideration of the societal context and cultural traditions
in which that development occurred.

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.

Mike Wright 《Asia Pacific Journal of Management》2007,24(3):269-281
This article provides commentary on the analysis of venture capital in China by Ahlstrom, Bruton, and Yeh (Venture capital
in China: Past, present, and future. Asia Pacific Journal of Management, 2007). The article considers issues relating to the scope of venture capital and private equity, the nature of venture capital
and private equity organizations, the life-cycle process of VC investing, internationalization, and foreign venture capital
firms. The paper identifies areas for future research and compares the Chinese VC context with those in Western Europe and
Central and Eastern Europe.

The effects of emotional intelligence on job performance and life satisfaction for the research and development scientists in China 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
Kenneth S. Law Chi-Sum Wong Guo-Hua Huang Xiaoxuan Li 《Asia Pacific Journal of Management》2008,25(1):51-69
To demonstrate the utility of the emotional intelligence (EI) construct in organizational studies, this study focuses on the
effect of EI on job performance among research and development scientists in China. We argue that EI is a significant predictor
of job performance beyond the effect of the General Mental Ability (GMA) battery on performance. This predictor effect is
supported by results on a study of research and development scientists working for a large computer company in China. Our
results also show that a self-reported EI scale developed for Chinese respondents, the WLEIS, is a better predictor of job
performance than the scale developed in the U.S., the MSCEIT. Implications of the findings are discussed.

Organizational values and procedures as antecedents for goal interdependence and collaborative effectiveness 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Organizational values of people and respect and interdependent structures of team procedures and task interdependence may
help departments believe their goals are cooperative and thereby coordinate effectively. CEOs in China completed measures
of their organization’s values and interdependent structures and their Vice-Presidents completed measures of the department’s
goal interdependence (cooperative, competitive, and independent) and collaborative effectiveness. Structural equation analysis
suggested that values and interdependent structures promote cooperative, but not competitive or independent, goals that in
turn results in collaborative effectiveness. These results, coupled with previous research, were interpreted as suggesting
that people and respect values, team procedures, task interdependence, and cooperative goals are complementary foundations
for synergy in China and perhaps other countries as well.

Business groups and their types 总被引:8,自引:6,他引:2
Alvaro Cuervo-Cazurra 《Asia Pacific Journal of Management》2006,23(4):419-437
We clarify what business groups are and analyze their various types. We first distinguish business groups from other types
of firm networks based on the strategic relationships among companies; business groups are defined as those networks that
exhibit unrelated diversification under common ownership. We then separate business groups into three types based on their
ownership: family-owned, widely-held, and state-owned. We argue that each type has different agency costs and diversification
logics. As a result of these differences, their performance varies, with family-owned business groups outperforming widely-held
ones, and these in turn outperforming state-owned business groups.

This study examines how the host country experience of Japanese multinational corporations (MNCs) affects their staffing policies
for executive manager positions at foreign affiliates. Hypotheses on executive staffing policies for foreign affiliates are
tested using survey data collected from 103 Japanese affiliates in Korea. Findings show that the level of global integration
and the degree of centralization of decision-making positively affect an assignment of parent country nationals as executive
managers of foreign affiliates. We further find that foreign affiliates’ experience in a host country moderates the effects
of both global integration and centralization on staffing decisions for the affiliates.

Managers’ conflict management styles and employee attitudinal outcomes: The mediating role of trust 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
This study examines the mediating effects of trust on the relationships between manager’s conflict management styles (CMS)
and employee attitudinal outcomes, as well as identifies the potential deviations in the areas of CMS and trust from the west
in Chinese culture. One hundred sixty-nine employees in Guangzhou of China participated. As predicted, Integrating CMS of
managers is found significantly correlated to trust and subordinates’ job satisfaction and turnover intention. Trust fully
mediates the link between Integrating CMS and subordinates attitudinal outcomes. Results also support the expectations concerning
the deviations on the impacts of the uncooperative CMS on subordinates under Chinese culture. Discussion and implications
are presented.

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
K. C. O’Shaughnessy Eric Gedajlovic Patrick Reinmoeller 《Asia Pacific Journal of Management》2007,24(3):283-303
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.

The adolescence of Asia management research: <Emphasis Type="Italic">APJM</Emphasis>, 1997–2006 总被引:3,自引:3,他引:0
Erin G. Pleggenkuhle-Miles Ramya R. Aroul Sunny Li Sun Yu-Shan Su 《Asia Pacific Journal of Management》2007,24(4):467-489
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.

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.

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.

Managerial ties,absorptive capacity,and innovation 总被引:12,自引:5,他引:7
Managerial ties—the boundary-spanning ties and interpersonal connections of top managers—contribute to a corporation’s innovativeness
in emerging economies because of the absence of market supporting institutions, transparent laws, and clear regulations. Moreover,
managerial ties are apt to interact with absorptive capacity to facilitate knowledge sharing and innovation. This paper examines
the joint influence of managerial ties and absorptive capacity in two communities in China, one characterized by a high level
of foreign direct investment (FDI) and the other consisting mainly of local corporations. We find that absorptive capacity
moderates the effect of managerial ties on a corporation’s innovativeness. Furthermore, when examining the two communities
separately, we find that business ties and university ties have opposite effects.

This article reviews major theoretical and empirical work on vertical and horizontal Japanese keiretsu. We first outline the history, characteristics, and strategic and performance implications of each type of business group.
We then discuss changes in the Japanese economy during the post-1992 Japanese economic decline and their implications for
the persistence and continued benefits of each form of inter-corporate grouping followed by a discussion of empirical findings
regarding the continued role of keiretsu in the Japanese economy. The review concludes by exploring areas of future research into the evolution of keiretsu ties and their implications.

In this conceptual article we present a critical analysis of close guanxi, i.e., close personal connections, in terms of their negative externalities on organizations. We adopt a social dilemma perspective
and examine how close guanxi parties, while cooperative toward each other, may nevertheless defect against the organization, causing negative externalities.
We contend that relationalism exacerbates such negative effects of close guanxi and propose various institutional mechanisms and individual variables that can reduce them. Finally, we discuss research
and practical implications of solving social dilemmas of close guanxi in Chinese organizations and strong ties in Western organizations.
