Does Enterprise risk management enhance operating

performance?

Abstract The Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) framework (COSOERM) indicates that the development of an enterprise-wide risk assessment and management process is designed to “provide reasona ble assurance regarding the achievement of entity objectives.” We examine this issue and hypothesize that firms with mature ERM processes should achieve greater operational performance than those with less mature risk management processes. This study relies on internal audit function management survey responses matched with archival firm level data to gain a better understanding of the expected operating performance impact of the multi-stage ERM implementation process. After controlling for board governance and other known effects, we find that firms with higher levels of ERM process maturity are characterized by higher operating performance than their industry peers utilizing performance metrics closely related to the earnings process. Our study provides support for the linkage of enhanced operating performance associated with the maturity of ERM processes and suggests other potential areas of ERM research.

Keywords:Enterprise risk management; Operating performance; Corporate governance

1.Introduction

In order to address the lack of a systematic enterprise-wide risk management plan, in 2004, the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission created an Enterprise Risk Management framework (COSO-ERM). COSO-ERM defines Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) as an enterprise-wide risk assessment and management process designed to “provide reasonable assurance regarding the achievement of entity objectives.”Although adoption of risk management may not specifically change the level of organizational risk, it likely impacts the actual measurement and monitoring of risk throughout the firm. As a result of targeting specific levels of risk, firms are likely to reduce downside operating performance volatility while accomplishing their ordinary business goals and objectives which include generating profits and providing shareholder value. Moreover, COSO's definition of ERM implies that firms implementing ERM processes should be more likely to achieve enhanced operating and market performance, yet this empirical link remains unclear.

2.Literature review

2.1.Benefits of implementing ERM

Implementing ERM requires a significant investment by firms; however the operational benefits of decreased costs and increased revenues are not always readily identifiable. Relying on the disclosure of appointments of Chief Risk Officers (CRO) as a proxy for ERM adoption, Lam (2001) finds that firms are able to “reduce losses and earnings volatility”and improve return on capital and shareholder value by implementing ERM. Also using CRO appointments as a proxy for the implementation of an ERM process, Pagach and Warr (2010) find that firms adopting ERM experience a reduction in the volatility of earnings but do not find general support for ERM creating value across several additional measures.

Tonello (2007) contends that an effective ERM implementation considers the consequences of downside risk (negative consequences of events) and methods for

mitigating or avoiding such risk, as well as identification and analysis of upside risk frequently referred to as opportunities. Tonello (2007) suggests that ERM attempts to balance (optimize) the threats and opportunities that may lead to cost reductions through the increased integration of risk assessment and management. This would lead to more profitable investment decisions and a more objective basis for resource allocation. These cost reductions and improved investment decisions increase firm cash flows and can provide additional operational benefits.

Consistent with this line of reasoning, Pagach and Warr (2010) and Tonello (2007) suggest that benefits of balancing the entire set of firm risk leads to less volatile earnings that are associated with lower stock price volatility. More recently, using a cross-section of financial sector firms, Baxter et al. (2013) find that Standard & Poor's ERM Quality ratings have a positive association with operating performance and firm value. McShane et al. (2011) find a positive association between the Standard & Poor's ERM Quality rating and firm value (Tobin's Q) within the insurance industry. However, McShane et al. (2011) find that it is not advanced ERM ratings that drive the results, but instead the midpoint rating (adequate with positive trend) that is significantly different from those with “weak”or “adequate”.

2.2.Operational performance measures

In order to develop our performance metrics, we rely upon previous performance literature (e.g. Ittner, Larcker, & Randall, 2003; Chen, Cheng, & Hwang, 2005). A survey-based study by the Milliman Risk Institute (2014) indicates that for ERM trendsetters, the top 5 ways ERM creates value for firms include improved performance management, improved risk-adjusted decision making, enhanced board oversight, improved capital efficiencies, and higher quality of strategic planning. With the exception of capital efficiency, the other four measures are not readily captured from public information. As a result, we focus on return on assets and equity. Prior studies have found differences or changes in firm characteristics to be associated with changes in operational performance measures (e.g. ROA and ROE) closely related to the earnings process. Maiga and Jacobs (2008), find that the adoption of just-in-time inventory management systems is associated with enhanced operating performance.

Using industry-adjusted ROA as a proxy for operating performance, Core, Guay, and Rusticus (2006) find that firms with greater shareholder rights outperform firms with lesser shareholder rights. Holm, Kumar, and Plenborg (2016) find that firms that implement customer accounting systems are associated with temporarily higher ROA compared to the industry. More closely related to this study, Brown and Caylor (2009) find that enhanced governance, as proxied by their Governance-Score measure (Gov-Score), is positively associated with industry-adjusted measures of ROA and ROE. This study builds on these prior findings and attempts to mitigate previous data limitations and expand industry focus beyond financial and insurance sectors in evaluating the relationship between the assessed ERM process maturity and operating performance.

3.Hypothesis development

COSO-ERM (2004), Lam (2001), Tonello (2007), and many others suggest that effective risk management should lead to enhanced operational performance. Despite these explicit predictions, to our knowledge, only two studies (Baxter et al., 2013; McShane et al., 2011) have evaluated the influence of ERM processes on operating performance. However the samples of the aforementioned studies were primarily limited to firms within financial and insurance sectors and due to extensive industry regulations are not generalizable to other industries. This study expands on these prior studies by evaluating the influence of the ERM process maturity stage on operating performance across a broad sample of industries. Although our study is most closely related to McShane et al. (2011) in consideration of ERM maturity, our sample window is longer, more diversified across industries other than insurance and focuses on operating performance as opposed to firm value (Tobin's Q). As a result our study is generalizable to various industries and is focused on operational performance that should allow for more control in managing risk.

Organizations can establish a low level risk appetite in order to reduce downside losses at the cost of reducing opportunities for investing in upside profitable opportunities. Alternatively, in attempting to achieve high returns, firms can focus

myopically on upside opportunities while not completely evaluating the potential for extreme losses. The integration of risk identification, assessment, and response throughout the entire organization allows firms with mature ERM processes to attempt to mitigate tunnel vision on profitability thereby reducing the likelihood of accepting too much risk and exposing the firm to excessive downside risk. While this approach may discourage firms from investing in potential risky high return projects, it is also expected to mitigate against extreme loss events. Consistent with the sixth premise of the COSO-ERM Framework, improving the deployment of capital, we argue that ERM adoption will lead to increased return on capital (ROA and ROE).

Therefore firms with mature ERM processes will logically experience higher operating performance (e.g. ROA) than firms that have not implemented ERM. Furthermore, firms with more mature or advanced ERM activities should also experience higher ROA than those in earlier stages or not having adopted ERM practices. This leads to our basic hypothesis stated in the alternative form: There is a cross-sectional positive association between ERM maturity and industry-adjusted ROA and ROE.

4.Methodology and sample selection

Barton et al. (2012) indicate that for ERM to be effective, it cannot be stagnant, but instead it “should be organic and alive.”Consistent with this point, we use a unique data set obtained via a web-based survey of internal audit management of U.S. based publicly traded firms that provides an assessment of ERM maturity for each year during a three year period. Survey responses were then matched to archival financial statement data obtained from the Compustat database. We construct an operating performance panel dataset and use regression models over the three year period from 2006 to 2008 corresponding to the survey data.

An on-line survey was sent via email to internal audit function management level employees at 1631 firms throughout the U.S. and other countries identified via web-based key word searches for internal audit management titles. The survey and follow-up requests were emailed between July and October 2009. This resulted in 496

responses received from survey respondents (30.4% response rate) as a potential sample. However, thirty-nine firms did not provide an ERM maturity response for each of the five ERM objectives (ERMOVR, ERMOPS, ERMSTRAT, ERMCOMP, ERMRPT) for at least one year (2006, 2007, or 2008). Another 242 were firms not able to match to Compustat (e.g. not publicly traded firms or foreign firms not in Compustat) with complete responses. An additional 34 firms within the Finance and Insurance industries (SIC 6000–6999) were eliminated from the sample due to regulatory differences related to these industry segments. Seven firms were missing financial data from Compustat, while board data was not found for twelve firms needed to compute regression variables and were therefore eliminated resulting in a sample of 162 firms (427 firm year observations) for the ROA and ROE models.

The sample including the number of responses and mean ERM process maturity level classified by GIC industry classification and fiscal year. Using all available Compustat observations within these industry classifications, we compute our industryadjusted operating performance measures. The Industry classifications comprising the largest percentage of survey responses include Capital Goods (13%), Materials (12%) and Energy (10%). The industries indicating the most mature ERM processes are Food, Beverage, and Tobacco (3.00), Commercial & Professional Services (2.67), and Real Estate (2.67), whereas Media (0.50), Telecommunication Services (0.75), and Pharmaceutical, Biotechnology, and Life Sciences (1.09) reported the lowest ERM Overall maturity.

5.Conclusions and contributions

Using a unique survey-based dataset linked to archival firm data, we find a positive association between ERM process maturity and industry-adjusted operating performance (ROA and ROE) in a broad industry sample. In the wake of recent economic events that have raised significant concerns related to managing risk within firms, the results of this study provide limited empirical evidence of the benefits of ERM processes related to operating performance. Although all risk is not predictable, failing to attempt to identify and manage response to risk throughout a firm can have

a detrimental impact.

Our results provide support of a significant positive association between ERM Maturity and operating performance that extends the literature on the benefits of ERM process maturity to firms in non-financial industries. While not the only stakeholder to have an interest in the potential benefits associated with ERM adoption and maturity, executive management and the board of directors (and their committees) have the greatest control in adopting and implementing ERM processes and the quality of ERM activities. The results of these findings may provide additional management insights that have the potential to assist in the assessment of ERM investment decisions as well as contribute to future research studies on the value enhancing potential of ERM processes. Given that prior studies focus on short-term benefits, future studies should consider the long-term benefits that may be associated with ERM adoption and maturity of processes related to specific ERM objectives.

企业风险管理提高了企业经营绩效吗?

摘要COSO企业风险管理框架(COSO-ERM)指出,制定全企业风险评估和管理过程的目的是“为实现目标提供合理保证”。我们对此问题进行了研究,并假设企业风险管理过程成熟的公司应该比那些风险管理过程较不成熟的公司获得更高的经营绩效。本研究依靠与档案企业级数据相匹配的内部审计职能管理调查回应,以更好地理解多阶段企业风险管理实施过程对经营绩效的预期影响。在掌握了董事会治理和其他已知影响之后,我们发现,利用与盈利过程密切相关的绩效指标来衡量,企业风险管理过程较成熟的公司的经营绩效要高于同行。我们的研究为企业风险管理过程成熟度与增强经营绩效之间的关联度提供了支持,并提出了企业风险管理研究的其他潜在领域。

1.简介

为了解决缺乏系统性的企业风险管理计划的问题,Treadway委员会发起组织委员会(COSO)于2004年创建了一个企业风险管理框架(COSO-ERM)。COSO-ERM 将企业风险管理(ERM)定义为企业范围内的风险评估和管理过程,旨在“为实现目标提供合理保证”。尽管采用风险管理可能并未具体改变组织风险的水平,但它可能会影响整个公司的实际测量和风险监测。因此,针对具体的风险水平,企业有可能在降低经营绩效波动的同时,完成日常业务总目标和具体目标,包括创造利润和提供股东价值。此外,COSO对企业风险管理的定义意味着实施企业风险管理过程的企业应该更有可能实现更高的经营和市场绩效,但这种经验联系尚不清楚。

2.文献综述

2.1.实施企业风险管理的好处

实施企业风险管理需要企业进行大量投资;然而,降低成本和增加收入的经营效益并不总是易于识别。拉姆(2001)通过披露首席风险官(CRO)的任命作为企业风险管理实施的代理,发现企业能够通过实施企业风险管理来“减少损失和收益波动”,提高资本回报率和股东价值。帕加奇和沃尔(2010)还使用首席风险官的任命作为实施企业风险管理过程的替代指标,发现采用企业风险管理的企业减少了收益波动,但并没有找到企业风险管理通过一些额外措施实现创造价值的普遍支持。

托内洛(2007)认为,有效的企业风险管理的实施考虑了下行风险的后果(事件的负面后果)和减轻或避免这种风险的方法,以及通常被称为机会的上行风险的识别和分析。托内洛(2007)认为,企业风险管理试图通过风险评估和管理的整合来平衡(优化)可能导致成本降低的威胁和机会。这将带来更有利可图的投资决策和更客观的资源分配基础。降低成本和改进投资决策增加了公司的现金流,并可以提供额外的经营效益。

与这一推论一致的是,帕加奇和沃尔(2010)以及托内洛(2007)认为,平衡整个公司风险的好处是使收益波动较小,从而降低股价波动。最近,巴克斯特等人(2013)利用金融部门公司的横截面数据,发现标准普尔企业风险管理质量

Introduction The leadership in organizing a government so far has tended to be only one leadership style for all employees’ abilities, namely instruction leadership style, so it has impacted and caused low-level service performance, [1]. An ofiicer’s leadership is no more than as a power figure, who is highly chained by formal rules. So, there is no possibility for appreciations to occur. The implication which occurs toward human resources of employees is that there is a strong tie with formal rules, so there is no room for employees to take initiatives, innovative actions, and to make significant development. Therefore, the time has come for the single-style bureaucratic leadership style orientation to change into the situational leadership style, a style based on situations and conditions of the subordinate/employees’ abilities. Besides the leadership style, the officer’s motivation also plays an important role in achieving high performance because it is related with :

旅游服务贸易的国际竞争力:罗马尼亚的案例 引言 旅游业是唯一的可以为任何发展水平的国家提供贸易机会的服务活动。然而,它也是一个很大程度因为国家的能力和在全球经济中的表现而又有明确的利益分配不均行业,而这又需要提高自己的竞争力。 自20世纪90年代初,罗马尼亚旅游业经历了出口量,生长速率和结构的重大变化。这些不同的波动都影响了罗马尼亚在国际旅游市场上相对的竞争地位并引起了其旅游贸易平衡的变化。同时,新的和更多的错杂的欧式建筑,引起了罗马尼亚的区域旅游竞争力的显著变化。 在此背景下,本文试图提出一个框架,以竞争力和旅游贸易表现之间的关系为重点,来评估罗马尼亚的旅游服务贸易的国际竞争力。 一、国际竞争力视角:国际竞争力之与国际旅游业的相关性 国际竞争力的概念,尽管有争议,难以捉摸,但现在已经得到认可,并继续吸引世界各地的学者和决策者的关注。 到目前为止,为提高国际竞争力已采取措施,都被认为是在经济层面进行的(加瑞利,2003)通常是指一个国家生产的商品和服务,以满足国际市场的考验,并同时保持和增加公民的收入的能力(欧洲委员会,2007)。 由于竞争力最终取决于一国企业在国内和国际的市场成功,所以对竞争力的注意力都集中在企业层面的竞争力上(波特,1990),对于此的普遍理解是指“……该公司保持,并更好的是,扩大其全球市场份额,增加和扩大利润的能力” (克拉克和盖,1998, 经济合作与发展组织,1993)。 因此,虽然广泛流传但是国际竞争力作为与国家经济和其国际贸易相关

的理论基础已经不太在学术文献进行分析。因此,一个国家国际竞争力的性质,效益和局限性仍然含糊不清(科尔德威尔,2000,克鲁格曼,1994, 1996)。 国际竞争力,是指一个国家在货物和服务贸易方面巩固和保持贸易优势相对于世界其他地区的贸易优势。 每当一个国家的经济福利通过贸易流量的增加,或通过从初始平衡状态的贸易条件的改变而增加,他的国际竞争力都会得到提高(科尔德威尔,2000)。 贸易理论表示,经济福利依赖于一个国家有比较优势的货物和服务的生产。这实际上意味着当生产符合一国的比较优势的情况时国际竞争力能得到保障。如果一国能在国际上表现良好并在出口市场竞争成功,这可能就是他们健全的国际竞争力的标志。 因此,在国际上,竞争力定义为一个经济体能够吸引其出口需求和投资供给需求的能力和在所有社会规范内提升公民生活水平的能力。这反过来又取决于宏观和微观经济政策,影响生产的经济生产率要素和经营成本的法规和制度。 一个可用的文献回顾和实证证据支持国际竞争力可以解释为在一定程度上,一个国家的出口能力这一观点(道乐和沃尔夫,1993, 格博格等. 2004)。还有就是,事实上,是出口表现和国际竞争力之间的循环关系。出口是国际竞争力的第一衡量指标。出口情况的改善会导致了一个国家的竞争力提升。这种效果是一个企业的技能,知识,创新和运用新技术并能够在一个成功的商业方式中利用技术机会等的结果。 另一方面,为了在竞争激烈的全球市场努力成功实现出口,一个国家被迫提高竞争力。更具竞争力的国家,它的经济更强大。因此,它更有能力在全球市场竞争,以吸引具有较高的知识,技能,水平人们去购买新技术等,

1.华为公司领导者的介绍 正所谓“上梁不正下梁歪”,作为一个领导者不能起到楷模作用,那么他的下属也只能成为乌合之众,不能有所作为,领导者的领导风格对下属和团队将产生重要的影响。华为公司的创始人任正非出生在贵州的一个贫困的小村庄,任正非虽然生在农村,但他从小就开始接受教育,可谓“贫贱不能移”,任正非凭借着其才能和智慧以及对知识的孜孜不倦的追究,使他进入一个技术密集型行业。1978年,任正非从部队转业,以2万元注册资本创办了深圳华为技术有限公司,现任华为有限公司的总裁。公司主营电信设备,发展迅猛,成为中国市场GSM设备、交换机产品及接入系统的佼佼者。2000年他被美国《福布斯》杂志评选为中国富豪第三位。个人财产估计为5亿美元。2005年他入选《时代周刊》全球“建设者与巨子”100名排行榜,他是中国唯一入选的企业家。同一档为有美国的苹果电脑公司董事长及首席执行官乔布斯、传媒大亨默多克、俄罗斯石油巨头阿布拉莫维奇、2011年任正非以11亿美元首次进入福布斯富豪榜,排名全球第1056名,中国第92名。在《财富》中文版第七次发布中,位居“中国最具影响力的商界领袖”榜单之首。 2.任正非的领导风格 2.1低调 低调的人做有高度的事业。木秀于林,风必摧之,故老子云:“夫唯不争,故天下莫能与之争”,不争者胜天下。任正非深谙这道理,为人处世一向低调。他对各种采访、会议、评选都躲得远远的,不论是直接有利于华为形象的宣传活动,还是政府的活动,或者令许多商界精英趋之若鹜的媒体盛世,他都统统拒绝。他向华为高层发下死命令:“除非重要客户或合作伙伴,其他活动一律免谈,谁来游说我,我就撤谁的职。”人们几乎没有看过他在电视屏幕上登场亮相,也几乎没有听到过他激情的演讲。任正非一贯的追求是“做事业,做有高度的事业”。唯有练好内功,方可与对手论高下。“桃李不言,下自成蹊”,就是这样,也许唯

对行销售人员激励机制分析 1激励机制的描述 1.1激励理论主要是研究激发人们行为动机的各种因素。由于人类行为 的原动力是需要,因此这种理论实际上就是围绕着人们的各种需要来进行研究。主要包括马斯洛的赫茨伯格的双因素理论、奥尔德弗的“ERG”理论、需要层次理论和麦克利兰的成就需要激励理论。 1.2 过程型激励理论重点研究人从动机产生到采取行动的心理过程。 包括亚当斯的公平理论、佛隆的期望理论和斯金纳的强化理论。 二对行销售人员激励机制分析 美国心理学家佛隆在1964年首先提出期望理论,人之所以能够完成某项工作并达成组织目标,因为这些组织目标和工作会帮助他们达成自己的目标。根据期望理论,某一活动对某人的激发力量取决于他所能得到的结果的全部预期价值乘以他认为达成该结果的期望概率。这就要求要处理好三个方面的关系:绩效与奖励的关系、努力与绩效的关系、奖励与个人需要的关系,任何一个环节都不能出现问题,否则都会导致无效激励。 从以期望理论为代表的过程型激励理论与内容型激励理论的观点来看,激励过程的科学性和合理性、激励手段对销售人员个性化需求的满足程度构成了激励的两要素。由此看出,销售人员的激励机制确实有改进的必要。 三销售人员激励体制中不足原因 3.1激励方式单一,过分依靠货币等物质激励手段而忽视精神激励的重要作用,销售人员没有归属感,缺少团队凝聚力。即使在物质激励方面,也是“佣金制”和“提成制”的天下,收入的多少完全依据销售额或利润额的多少,无视死去差异和个人实际努力程度,激励不公现象十分普遍。 3.2晋升制度僵硬,论资排辈,讲资历而忽视能力,讲关系而忽视业务水平,人浮于事,优秀人才流失严重,已不再适应市场竞争的需要。 3.3多数企业没有完整的培训激励机制,企业只注重“挖人”而非培养,因而满足不了销售人员自我发展的需要。

顾客满意策略与顾客满意营销 原文来源:《Marketing Customer Satisfaction 》自20世纪八十年代末以来, 顾客满意战略已日益成为各国企业占有更多的顾客份额, 获得竞争优势的整体经营手段。 一、顾客满意策略是现代企业获得顾客“货币选票”的法宝随着时代的变迁, 社会物质财富的极大充裕, 顾客中的主体———消费者的需求也先后跨越了物质缺乏的时代、追求数量的时代、追求品质的时代, 到了20世纪八十年代末进入了情感消费时代。在我国, 随着经济的高速发展,我们也已迅速跨越了物质缺乏时代、追求数量的时代乃至追求品质的时代, 到今天也逐步迈进情感消费时代。在情感消费时代, 各企业的同类产品早已达到同时、同质、同能、同价, 消费者追求的已不再是质量、功能和价格, 而是舒适、便利、安全、安心、速度、跃动、环保、清洁、愉快、有趣等,消费者日益关注的是产品能否为自己的生活带来活力、充实、舒适、美感和精神文化品位, 以及超越消费者期望值的售前、售中、售后服务和咨询。也就是说, 今天人们所追求的是具有“心的满足感和充实感”的商品, 是高附加值的商品和服务,追求价值观和意识多元化、个性化和无形的满足感的时代已经来临。 与消费者价值追求变化相适应的企业间的竞争, 也由产品竞争、价格竞争、技术竞争、广告竞争、品牌竞争发展到现今的形象竞争、信誉竞争、文化竞争和服务竞争, 即顾客满意竞争。这种竞争是企业在广角度、宽领域的时空范围内展开的高层次、体现综合实力的竞争。它包括组织创新力、技术创新力、管理创新力、产业预见力、产品研发力、员工向心力、服务顾客力、顾客亲和力、同行认同力、社会贡献力、公关传播沟通力、企业文化推动力、环境适应力等等。这些综合形象力和如何合成综合持久的竞争力, 这就是CSft略所要解决的问题。CS寸代,企业不再以“自己为中心”,而是以“顾客为中心”;“顾客为尊”、“顾客满意”不再是流于形式的口号, 而是以实实在在的行动为基础的企业经营的一门新哲学。企业不再以质量达标, 自己满意为经营理念, 而是以顾客满意, 赢得顾客高忠诚度为经营理念。企业经营策略的焦点不再以争取或保持市场占有率为主, 而是以争取顾客满意为经营理念。因此, 营销策略的重心不再放在竞争对手身上而是放在顾客身上, 放在顾客现实的、潜在的需求上。当企业提供的产品和服务达到了顾客事先的期望值, 顾客就基本满意;如果远远超越顾客的期望值, 且远远高于其他同行, 顾客才真正满意;如果企业能不断地或长久地令顾客满意, 顾客就会忠诚。忠诚的顾客不仅会经常性地重复购买, 还会购买企业其它相关的产品或服务;忠诚的顾客不仅会积极向别人推荐他所买的产品, 而且对企业竞争者的促销活动具有免疫能力一个不满意的顾客会将不满意告诉16-20个人, 而每一个被告知者会再传播给12-15个人。这样, 一个不满意者会影响到二、三百人。在互联网普及的今天, 其影响则更大。据美国汽车业的调查, 一个满意者会引发8笔潜在的生意, 其中至少有一笔会成交。而另一项调查表明, 企业每增加5%的忠诚顾客, 利润就会增长25%-95%。一个企业的80%的利润来自20%的忠诚顾客;而获取一个新顾客的成本是维持一个老顾客成本的6倍。所以,美国著名学者唐?佩 珀斯指出: 决定一个企业成功与否的关键不是市场份额, 而是在于顾客份额。 于是, 企业纷纷通过广泛细致的市场调研、与消费者直接接触、顾客信息反馈等方式来了解顾客在各方面的现实需求和潜在需求。依靠对企业满意忠诚的销售、服务人员, 定期、定量地对顾客满意度进行综合测定, 以便准确地把握企业经营中与“顾客满意” 目标的差距及其重点领域, 从而进一步改善企业的经营活动。依靠高亲和力的企业文化、高效率的人文管理和全员共同努力, 不断地向顾客提供高附加值的产品, 高水准的亲情般的服

全球领导力文献综述与分析

全球领导力文献综述与分析 2014年02月25日17:53 来源:《领导科学》(郑州)2012年11(中)期作者:李云飞字号 打印纠错分享推荐浏览量【作者简介】李云飞,天津商业大学F2U合作学院。 一、全球领导力的定义 全球领导力在世界范围内是个热门话题,同传统的领导力一样,始终没有一个被所有人认可的定义。研究全球领导力的专家学者根据各自的经验、不同的文化背景从不同的视角给出了不同的定义。 最初全球领导力的概念是借鉴进而延伸传统的国内领导力而来的(Yeung and Ready,1995),但是学者们很快意识到由于全球竞争的不定性和多种压力,全球领导力远比国内领导力复杂,这种不定性和压力增加了领导者的工作范围(Weber,1998)。Adler(2001)阐明了这个问题:“全球领导力不同于国内领导力,它涉及人与人之间的相互作用和不同文化之间的观念,而不仅仅是指领导者在本国特定的领导风格的有效性,也不是比较不同国家的不同领导方式……” 有些学者是从跨文化视角定义全球领导力的。Dorfman(2003)将全球领导力定义为一种跨越地理和文化边界的影响,并且这种影响不局限于全球化事物,也不局限于个人及其知识、技能和能力,也不局限于组织中的CEO。Carey等(2004)提出,全球领导力能够跨越地理和文化的边界以激发组织成员共同的愿景、促进合作的决策、适应全球变化浪潮、激励和授权多样化的员工队伍。 Mendenhall(2011)对全球领导者和领导力做了广义的界定:全球领导者是指那些通过建立在相互信任基础上的有效沟通而在组织中产生重大正量改变,在跨界利益相关者、外部权力机构的不同来源,以及在当时复杂的地理和文化条件下建立有效的组织结构和程序的领导者。 基于以上不同的定义,笔者认为,全球领导力概念的核心就是多元化,包括文化、人力资源、地理等。不同范畴的多样化增加了领导力环境的复杂性,因此,有效性成为全球领导力的终极目标。 二、研究历史回顾 领导力的研究在国际上可以追溯到1900年,距今已有100多年的历史了。在1900年至1940年期间,领导力研究致力于挖掘领导者独特的素质,最有代表性的是伟人理论,这个理论强调领袖是天生的,而不是制造的。根据Toyne和Nigh(1997)的研究,20世纪五六十年代国际商务的出现促使学者着手研究不同文化背景下的领导力以及不同文化对领导力的影响,然而这些研究并非当时国际商务研究的主流。 20世纪60年代,有些研究商业管理的学者开始关注管理跨国公司的相关问题,他们的研究促使人们对民族文化本质以及这些文化本质的不同对管理不同国家员工带来的影响有了更深刻的理解,这个研究量规被称作“比较管理”。这些学者把人类学文化框架扩展至商业应用领域,起到了开创性作用(Redding 1997;Schollhammer 1969)。

中英金融服务贸易国际竞争力比较研究【文献综述】

毕业论文文献综述 国际经济与贸易 中英金融服务贸易国际竞争力比较研究 金融服务贸易国际竞争力相关理论综述 服务贸易是以服务作为交易标的的一种贸易行为。《服务贸易总协定》(GATS)所界定的国际服务贸易是指以过境交付、境外消费、商业存在和自然人流动这四种形式进行的各国间的服务交易。该定义已成为有一定权威性和指导性的定义为各国接受。 根据《服务贸易总协定》中的服务部门清单,可以将服务贸易分为12类:商业性服务,销售服务,金融服务,娱乐服务,通讯服务,教育服务,卫生服务,运输服务,建筑服务,环境服务,旅游服务和其他服务。而对于金融服务贸易,国内外并没有确切的定义。本文将对金融服务贸易国外及国内有代表性的研究进行综述。 一、GATS与OECD对金融服务贸易的定义 根据GATS的定义,金融服务贸易是指由一成员国的金融服务提供者所提供的任何金融性质的服务。它包括两个部分:所有保险和保险相关的服务、银行和其他金融服务(保险除外),其中其他金融服务指证券和金融信息服务。 经济合作和发展组织(OECD)对金融服务贸易的定义为由金融机构提供服务的收入,或者接受付出的支持,包括得到的和付出的直接投资收益(未分配收益和利息);从其他金融投资得到的和付出的收益(得到的和付出的利息和红利);得到的、付出的手续费和佣金。 可见,经济合作和发展组织对金融服务贸易的界定强调了金融服务贸易交易的提供方,而忽略了金融服务贸易的消费方。金融服务贸易的发展主要是以此换取其他贸易领域的发展,而且金融服务贸易可以促进本国金融业与国际金融业的接轨,从而在国际竞争中促进本国金融业的发展。 二、国外对金融服务贸易相关研究 对于金融服务贸易研究,国外学者从不同角度出发,有不同的看法。 列为恩(1996)认为,各种金融服务可以实现五种基本功能:方便商品和劳务的交易;易于风险管理;加速资源流动;获取信息,评估企业和配置资本;提供公司法人治理。同时,更多的相关文献表示,金融中介可以降低由于信息不对称产生的管理成本(戴蒙德1984;威廉森1987)也可以对规模经济产生积极的效应。 莫施里安(Moshirian 1994)认为,金融服务贸易和制造业类似,一些基本要素赋予了

International Journal of Marketing Studies 6.5 (2014): 63-72. 原文 Marketing Strategy for Unusual Brand Differentiation: Trivial Attribute Effect Dalman, M. Deniz & Junhong Min Abstract This research investigates that brand differentiation creating superior values can be achieved not only by adding meaningful attributes but also meaningless attributes, which is called "trivial attribute effect." Two studies provided empirical evidences as following; first, trivial attribute effect creates a strong brand differentiation even after subjects realize that trivial attribute has no value. Second, trivial attribute effect is more pronounced in hedonic service category compared to the utilitarian category. Last, the amount of willingness to pay is higher when trivial attribute is presented and evaluated in joint evaluation mode than separate evaluation mode. Finally, we conclude with discussion and provide suggestions for further research. Keywords: brand differentiation, evaluation mode, service industry, trivial attribute Introduction Problem Definition Perhaps the most important factor for new product success is to create the meaningful brand differentiation that provides customers with superior values beyond what the competitors can offer in the same industry (Porter, 1985). Not surprisingly, more than 50 percent of annual sales in consumer product industries including automobiles, biotechnology, computer software, and pharmaceuticals are attributed to such meaningful brand differentiation by including new or noble attributes (Schilling &Hill, 1998). However, the brand differentiation that increases consumer preference is not only by introducing meaningful attributes but also meaningless attributes. For

Usually, the product line’s scope addresses various domains simultaneously. This makes requirements engineering more complex. Furthermore, SPL development involves more tasks than single-product development. Many product line requirements are complex, interlinked, and divided into common and product-specific requirements. So, several requirements engineering practices are important specifically in SPL development: ? Domain identification and modeling, as well as commonalities and variations across product instances Separate specification and verification for platform and product requirements ? Management of integrating future requirements into the platform and products ? Identification, modeling, and management of requirement dependencies The first two practices are specific to SPL engineering. The latter two are common to software development but have much higher importance for SPLs. Issues with performing these additional activities can severely affect the product line’s long-term success. During the investigation, we found that most organizations today apply organizational and procedural measures to master these challenges. The applicability of more formal requirements engineering techniques and tools appeared rather limited, partly because such techniques are not yet designed to cope with product line evelopment’s inherent complexities. The investigation determined that the following three SPL requirements engineering practices were most important to SPL success. Domain analysis and domain description. Before starting SPL development, organizations should perform a thorough domain analysis. A well-understood domain is a prerequisite for defining a suitable scope for the product line. It’s the foundation for efficiently identifying and distinguishing platform and product requirements. Among the five participants in our investigation, three explicitly modeled the product line requirements. The others used experienced architects and domain experts to develop the SPL core assets without extensive requirements elicitation. Two organizations from the first group established a continuous requirements management that maintained links between product line and product instance requirements. The three other organizations managed their core assets’ evolution using change management procedures and versioning concepts. Their business did not force them to maintain more detailed links between the requirements on core assets and product instances. The impact of architectural decisions on requirements negotiations. A stable but flexible architecture is important for SPL development. However, focusing SPL evolution too much on architectural issues will lead to shallow or even incorrect specifications. It can cause core assets to ignore important SPL requirements so that the core assets lose relevance for SPL development. Organizations can avoid this problem by establishing clear responsibilities for requirements management in addition to architectural roles. The work group participants reported that a suitable organizational tool for balancing requirements and architecture is roundtable meetings in which requirements engineers,

关于杭州中心地区服务业竞争力及其发展 战略的评价(节选) 郑建壮,中国浙江省浙江大学城市学院 江海霞,中国浙江省浙江工业大学 摘要:服务行业的竞争力是直接反映在区服务业的发展水平和潜在能力之中的。本文研究了杭州服务行业的发展现状,从中心区的角度构建了一个服务行业的评价指标体系,并分析了杭州每个中心城区服务业的可持续发展的优势和劣势。最后,文章给杭州的服务行业竞争力的提高提出了战略建议。 关键词:中心地区,服务业,竞争力 1. 引言 20世纪80年代以来,全球经济已呈现从“工业经济”转向于“服务经济”的变化趋势。服务业已成为全球经济好转的一个关键的引擎(2005年李和王),它在改善国家经济、增加就业率、调整产业结构和提高生活水平等方面的重要作用是显而易见的。一般来说一个地区的服务行业发展主要集中于中部地区,而不是郊区,因为中心区一般被视为一个城市经济发展的“心脏”,它在地理位置、交通和文化等方面都占有有利因素,不仅可增强生产要素、人口和产业聚集的力量,也有利于市场的发展。因此,中部地区正在成为服务行业的主要区域(李2007)。本文在分析杭州中心城区的服务业竞争力的基础上,进行了相关的评价,旨在寻找到一种有效的策略以提高城市的服务行业发展。 2. 服务产业竞争力的文献研究 大部分关于服务行业的竞争力的学术研究都是基于它们的地区竞争能力之上的。因此,服务业的竞争力可以简单地定义为“服务行业在竞争中获取和利用资源的能力”。国外的研究学者更倾向于特定的服务行业的竞争力分析与研究,如商业服务行业(2001年Rubalcaba和加戈)、保险业(哈德威克和窦1998)、知识密集服务(1999年Windrum和汤姆林森)。然而,在中国,学者们的研究重点则集中于一个特定的区域,而不是一个特定的行业,如中国的31个主要省份(吴2003),中国六大发展先进的省份(2004年刁、庄),中国16个主要省份(2005年苏、张)。由于很多的因素都可以影响服务业的竞争力和复杂性,大多数中国学者认为,我们应该建立一个多层次的综合评价指标体系,如“总目标指导指数”。
