Career patterns of top management team members in five countries: an optimal matching analysis

This paper introduces optimal matching analysis (OMA) to the field of top management research. With this method, we develop six career patterns of top management team (TMT) members from five countries based on their international experience, organizational tenure and professional experience. The results provide strong support for the significance of these patterns, since each country (Denmark, Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States) shows one to four predominant career patterns of their managers and the occurrence of these patterns also differs significantly between the fields of activity within the TMT (chairperson, head of a division, primary activities and support activities).

Experience matters: The role of academic scientist mobility for industrial innovation

Research Summary: A learning‐by‐hiring approach is used to scrutinize scientists' mobility in relation to the recruiting firms' subsequent innovation output. Our starting point is that among firm hires, individuals with university research experience—hired from universities or firms—can be particularly valuable. However, conflicting institutional logics between academia and industry makes working with academic scientists challenging at times for firms. We suggest two solutions to this difficulty: hiring “ambidextrous” individuals with a mix of experience of university research and working for a technologically advanced firm, and a strong organizational research culture in the recruiting firm reflected by the presence of a scientist on the top management team. We track the mobility of R&D workers empirically using patent and linked employer‐employee data. Managerial Summary: An important way to make organizations more innovative is hiring individual researchers with the right types of skills and experience. We show that individuals with university research experience beyond their final degree are particularly likely to help boost firm‐level innovation output after hiring compared to R&D workers with other types of skills and experience. However, to obtain good returns to innovation from hiring such individuals, firms need a university research–friendly organizational culture when hiring individuals with university research experience, from either firms or academia.     

浅谈高职英语教学中跨文化交际能力的培养

高职英语教学存在着学生英语基础较差,上课课时少,任务重的状况。由于学生是工科专业的,对英语缺乏兴趣,另外每班学生数量较多,人均交流次数很少,课堂互动受到限制,学生的交际能力难以培养,2000年颁布的《高职高专教育英语课程教学基本要求》调整了语言技能要求,明确了交际范围,突出了学生跨文化交际能力的培养。英语教学中培养学生跨文化交际能力,使高职学生不仅能够掌握流利的英语口语,而且具备丰富的跨文化交际知识和熟练的跨文化交际能力是英语教学面临的重要课题。因此高职英语教师要从根本上转变观念,逐步培养学生跨文化交际能力。     

企业强文化的资本性研究

论中国式管理的策略原则

中国式管理问题,是近年来学术界研究的热点,从中华民族五千年历史文化的挖掘中产生的种种管理创新理论层出不穷,但对于作为中国式管理重要组成部分的管理策略艺术问题,尚未能有深入地研究。本文在深入研究的基础上,第一次把中国式管理的策略艺术归纳为有道之识、无为之见、人本之思、和合之计、变易之术、中庸之道、人文化成和统筹兼顾等八个方面,系统地探讨了中国式管理艺术的基本原则问题。     

A dyadic approach to the impact of differences in organizational culture on relationship performance

The authors extend previous research on relationship management by investigating the potential effect of differences in organizational culture on relationship performance among 124 dyads. Theory suggests that partner similarity may improve the feeling of we-ness thereby contributing to the perceived success of inter-firm cooperation. The findings reveal that differences in organizational culture are larger in less successful inter-firm relationships, but do not influence the perceived relationship success significantly. Our results suggest that relationship managers should not confuse compatibility with similarity; personal chemistry is important for relationship atmosphere but does not solely depend on similarities. Future research in this area may wish to concentrate on a more complete measure of organizational (sub)culture(s), the different levels of analysis (personal, organizational, dyad), relationship life cycles (stage models) and the role of organizational identity.     

吉林省会计中介服务业发展问题研究

吉林省会计中介服务业为维护吉林省市场经济秩序、监督经济信息质量、促进经济健康运行发挥了重要的作用,但与国内发达省市相比,在规模、服务质量、效益等方面还存在着很大差距。由于吉林省经济发展水平较低、会计中介执业人员整体素质不高、人才流失严重、业务市场单一等因素的制约,会计中介服务业发展较慢。要实现吉林省会计中介服务业的跨越式发展,必须培育和建设和谐的事务所文化,以吸引和留住人才;推进事务所实行业务多元化战略;坚持会计职业道德教育,加强行业监管和自律;明确市场定位,完善事务所内部治理结构。     

银行跨国并购中的文化差异识别体系研究

在跨国并购中,并购银行将面临民族文化和企业文化双重差异和冲突带来的挑战,而且缺乏对文化差异的理解和管理是并购失败的首要原因。在并购实施中,我们有必要把文化整合与业务技术整合看成截然不同但又紧密相关的两个领域,而构建文化差异识别体系是文化整合的基础。本文从感知跨国并购中的文化差异冲突和融合入手,提出构建文化差异识别体系应以整合战略执行为导向,突出促成行为改变的关键要素;提出了涵盖人本文化、处事文化、沟通文化等角度,共7个维度、22种偏好的文化差异识别体系的基础框架。     

The Relationships Between Adhocracy and Clan Cultures and Tacit Oriented KM Strategy

Abstract

In this study knowledge is considered as explicit and tacit; and in line with this, knowledge management strategy that focuses on tacit knowledge is identified as tacit oriented knowledge management strategy. Organizational culture, which is one of the crucial antecedents of knowledge management process, is categorized into four types by using two dimensions—external versus internal orientation and formal versus informal organizational process—as adhocracy, clan, market and hierarchy. And the relationships between adhocracy, and clan culture and tacit oriented knowledge management strategy are investigated. Also the industrial environment hostility is used as a moderator between adhocracy and clan cultures, and tacit oriented knowledge management strategy.

According to the regression analyses, adhocracy and clan cultures have positive effects on tacit oriented knowledge management strategy; and the impact (magnitude) of adhocracy culture is approximately the same as the clan culture on tacit oriented knowledge management strategy. Also it was found that greater industry environment hostility, the greater relationship between adhocracy and clan cultures, and tacit oriented knowledge management Strategy.
