摘要:How can a multinational formulate an effective global strategy? This paper attempts to address this question by assessing the effect of a procedural justice model of strategic decision making (Kim and Mauborgne 1991, 1993a) on the multinational's ability to formulate effective global strategies. There are five designing principles that define a procedural justice model of strategic decision making. These are: bilateral communication between the head office and subsidiary units, the subsidiary ...

摘要:Researchers at the CRG (Management Research Center) carry out their work through ''clinical studies'' lasting from one to four years and generating in-depth observations on how organizations function. The observations are analyzed through systematic discussions: over a span of 20 years the CRG has carried out more than 100 clinical studies, debated in hundreds of internal meetings. These exchanges have made it possible to identify similarities and differences among the management situations st...

摘要:Japans economic success since World War II has been striking. Modern Japan was the first major industrial economy to emerge from outside the Western tradition.

In this paper it is argued that one reason for Japan's success is that the costs of achieving cooperation and specialization ate lower in Japan than in the West. Cooperation and spec...

This article argues that these processes are embedded in organizational characteristics and in the way organizations are managed. Organizations are presented as nonlinear dynamic systems subject to forces of stability and forces of instability which push them toward chaos. When in a chaotic domain, organizations are likely to...

摘要:The paper is concerned with problems of research methodology in organization studies. It places the main emphasis on the ''research design,'' which is seen as an important tool for the planning, the substantiation and the practical guidance of research procedures. The explicit discussion and improvement of research designs is proposed to be a major contribution also to concept and theory development in Organization Science. The basic content of the paper is an empirical analysis and evaluation...

摘要:The capabilities of a firm, or any organization, lie primarily in the organizing principles by which individual and functional expertise is structured, coordinated, and communicated. Firms are social communities which use their relational structure and shared coding schemes to enhance the transfer and communication of new skills and capabilities. To replicate new knowledge in the absence of a social community is difficult. A classic demonstration is the well-studied problem of the transfer acr...
