股东联结网络、网络位置与企业绩效

Shareholder’s Connecting Network,Network Location and Enterprise Performance

采用企业网络加强组织间协同创新是推动新兴产业重大技术创新和技术突破的有效途径。本文以我国沪深A股2012—2014年新一代信息技术产业中的187家上市企业作为研究样本,运用社会网络分析方法,对上市企业之间由共同股东这一非正式关系联结起来的企业网络的密度和成分等结构特征进行描述,并通过中心度、结构洞和核心—边缘结构三个指标检验上市企业在股东联结网络中的网络位置对企业绩效的影响,分析新兴产业中的企业应如何占据优势网络位置或建立重要社会关系。研究结果表明,股东联结网络的中心度、结构洞和核心—边缘结构对企业绩效均有显著的正向影响,这说明占据有利的网络位置对企业绩效的提升有明显的促进作用。因此,企业应主动增加网络中心度、占据更多的结构洞、向更核心的网络位置靠近,以此来增加企业绩效。
