并购与种子产业发展

并购是现代经济史上一个十分突出的现象,现代种子产业的发展就是一部种子企业的并购史。从微观层次上看,并购是企业发展和追逐利润的内在要求,是实现企业扩张和资本集中的快速有效形式,从宏观层次看,是产业结构调整,合理配置资源的手段。从并购这一企业行为对市场结构和产业发展影响的角度,对世界种子产业发展中的并购过程和并购效应进行实证分析,证实了国际种子产业的并购实践对现阶段国内种子产业的借鉴意义。     

跨国公司在中国的研发活动

近年来,跨国公司加强了在中国的研发投资。跨国公司在华研发活动的增长性、集中性、合作性、控制性,促进了我国高科技产业的发展,增加了“技术溢出”效应,搭建了人才培养的平台,在此基础上,应从政策方面支持跨国公司在华的研发活动,引导我国企业采取科学的管理理念和模式,推动企业国际化的步伐,加强我国企业自身研发能力建设。     

对外直接投资与美国服务贸易的发展

一般认为,对外直接投资活动(FDI)对贸易的持续增长将起到十分重要的支撑和推动作用。本文选用了美国1970年至2003年的相关数据,通过建立自回归模型,拟合后发现这个结论在美国的服务业领域也成立。进一步运用Granger因果检验方法,发现两者之间还存在着互为因果的关系。然而,通过对统计数据的分析,同时也直观地发现,在美国服务业内的对外直接投资与对外贸易在进出口上的同向相关性并不明显。其原因可能是各国对服务业的限制措施所造成的扭曲和直接投资的贸易替代效应所致。     

Values and the Perceived Importance of Ethics and Social Responsibility: The U.S. versus China

This study examines the effects of nationality (U.S. vs. China) and personal values on managers’ responses to the Perceived Role of Ethics and Social Responsibility (PRESOR) scale. Evidence that China’s transition to a socialist market economy has led to widespread business corruption, led us to hypothesize that People’s Republic of China (PRC) managers would believe less strongly in the importance of ethical and socially responsible business conduct. We also hypothesized that after controlling for national differences, managers’ personal values (more specifically, self-transcendence values) would have a significant impact on PRESOR responses. The hypotheses were tested using a sample of practicing managers enrolled in part-time MBA programs in the two countries. The results indicate that nationality did not have a consistent impact on PRESOR responses. After controlling for national differences, self-transcendence values had a significant positive impact on two of the three PRESOR dimensions. Conservation values such as conformity and tradition also had a significant association with certain dimensions of the PRESOR scale. William E.

一种实用的无线信道纠错方法

核心竞争力是企业适应市场的潜力。中国某些企业由于缺乏核心竞争力而使其市场份额逐渐缩小。为了适应国际市场竞争的形势,发展企业核心竞争力是重中之重。为此,除了企业加强自身建设以外,政府应该利用法律和政策,充分利用加入WTO以后宝贵的“缓冲期”,使国内市场尽快完善,促进企业核心竞争力的不断提高。     

Aligning employees through “line of sight”

Aligning employees with the firm's larger strategic goals is critical if organizations hope to manage their human capital effectively and ultimately attain strategic success. An important component of attaining and sustaining this alignment is for employees to have a “line of sight” (LOS) with their organization's strategic objectives. In this article, we illustrate how the translation of calculated firm goals into tangible results requires that employees not only understand the organization's strategy, but also accurately appreciate what actions are aligned with realizing that strategy. Using recent empirical evidence, theoretical insights, and tangible examples of exemplary firm practices, we provide thought-leaders with a comprehensive view of LOS by showing how it can be created, how it can be enhanced or stifled, and how it can be effectively managed. Further, we integrate LOS with current thinking on employee alignment to help managers more effectively benefit from understanding human capital potential.

基于客户认知价值的CRM战略

客户需求的多样化 ,个性化 ,客户经验的成熟化为企业提出了服务敏捷 ,优质 ,准确的高标准要求。以“客户为中心” ,一切以满足客户需求为目标的客户关系管理 (CRM)战略正是解决这一问题的重大管理决策。但CRM战略的实施不仅是从企业一方出发 ,最大可能地为客户创造需求。而且因为客户的最终价值是从其获得的总价值中扣除为获得产品或服务所支付的成本而享有的最终感受。因此 ,基于客户对企业产品或服务价值的看法或需求 ,选取适当的营销方式 ,明确相应的CRM战略是客户关系管理战略成功的关键。

Credit market failure intervention: Do government sponsored small business credit programs enrich poorer areas?

Using local market employment rates as our measure of economic performance, we find a positive and significant correlation between the average annual level of employment in a local market and the level of SBA guaranteed lending in that local market. Furthermore, the intensity of this correlation is much larger in low-income markets. Indeed, our results suggest that this correlation is positive and significant only in low-income markets. This result has important implications for public policy in general and SBA guaranteed lending in particular.
