Building a Business and Strategic Intelligence Policy as a Strategy for Promoting Congolese Business Progress and Healthy Economic Development in Eastern DRC

The aim of this study was to verify the existence of business and strategic intelligence policies at the level of Congolese companies and at the state level, likely to foster progress and healthy development in the east of the DRC. The study was based on a mixed perspective consisting of objective analysis of quantitative data and interpretative analysis of qualitative data. The results showed that business and strategic intelligence policies have not been established at either company or state level, as this is an area of activity that is not known to the players in companies and public departments, and there are no units or offices in their organizational structures responsible for managing strategic information for competitiveness on the international market. In addition, there is a real need to establish strategic information management units within companies, upstream, and to set up a national strategic information management department or agency to help local companies compete in the marketplace, downstream. This reflects the importance and timeliness of building business and strategic intelligence policies to ensure economic progress and development in the eastern DRC. Business and strategic intelligence provides companies with an appropriate tool for researching, collecting, processing and disseminating information useful for decision-making among stakeholders, in order to cope with a crisis or competitive situation. The study suggests a number of key recommendations based on its findings. To the government, it is recommended to establish the national policy of business and strategic intelligence by setting up a national agency of strategic intelligence in favor of local companies;and to companies to establish business intelligence units in their organizational structures in favor of stakeholders to foster advantageous decision-making in the competitive market and achieve progress. Finally, the study suggests that studies be carried out to fully understand the opportunities and impact of business and strategic intelligence in African countries, particularly in the DRC.

STRATEGIC ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN URBANIZATION PROCESS IN CHINA

This paper reviewed the development of Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) in China, expounded its functions and regional characteristics, and discussed the targets of SEA in the process of urbanization,and the main assessment indicators, procedures, techniques and methodologies of SEA. It concluded that SEA could be improved by the following recommendations: incorporating SEA in decision-making process, selecting experimental units for SEA trial run, and developing strategic evaluation tools and techniques. SEA can provide appropriate and up-to-date information on the impact of human activity on environment in the process of urbanization, and develop a plan of action targeting implementation of intervention for the rehabilitation and preservation of the ecological stability of a city. Therefore, SEA can be a supporting tool for decision-making toward achieving sustainable development.

Globalization and Application of Strategic Management Model and Theories to Entrepreneurs in a Turbulent Economy

Globalization had changed the competitive landscape in which entrepreneurs used to compete. There are advantages and disadvantages of doing business globally. Globalization had also brought about many challenges to entrepreneurs in the management of their organization. The values and beliefs of managers and staff across the globe influence visions, missions of their organization. Culture, resources and business practices of countries vary widely. Entrepreneurs must deal with global issues side by side with domestic considerations. This paper looks into how the theories and model of strategic management remain useful and relevant to entrepreneurs in a globalized business world especially in a turbulent economy.

Understanding the Impact of Economic Crisis on the Distribution of Organizational Decision-Making Authority

Understanding the dynamics of decision making in the right way is an important problem for the management of organizations.In today’s business life organizations are becoming more complex,and the environments they are operating in,are becoming increasingly uncertain.The aim of this paper is to contribute to the understanding of the dynamics of managerial decision-making process in complex internal and external environments by sharing the results of an empirical study(Onuk,2009).While taking the levels of the organizational structure as one of the important dimensions of complex internal environment,complex external environment is reflected within the study as economic crisis.Using the survey tool developed by Onuk(2009),the empirical study realized in the Turkish organization of a large global company investigated decision-making process to understand how decision-making authority for different types of decisions,identified as strategic,tactical,and operational level decisions,was distributed throughout the organization levels,and how this distribution was impacted by economic crisis.The results of the study confirmed the following common expectations:(1)Strategic decisions are mostly taken at upper hierarchical levels of the organizational structure;(2)during times of economic crisis strategic decision making is centralized;and(3)during times of economic crisis distribution of decision-making authority is concentrated at upper management levels.

初始资源、战略匹配度、创业学习与新创企业成长效应

初始资源、创业战略、创业学习是创业理论的重要范畴,但不少研究往往割裂范畴之间内在联系,孤立分析上述因素对新创企业成长影响,难以适应动态复杂的环境变化,也与高度能动性创业活动的实际情况不吻合。借鉴资源基础理论的分析范式,构建“初始资源–创业战略–企业成长性”新分析框架,并将创业战略模式具体化为新企业对创业机会来源和创业合法性方式的选择组合,引进创业学习变量,构建有调节的中介效应模型。通过对266家新创企业的问卷调查,构建回归模型进行实证分析。研究发现:(1)初始资源禀赋对新创企业成长具有直接积极影响。(2)战略模式选择的成长效应不显著,但初始资源结构与创业战略模式之间内洽性和匹配度,则对新企业成长具有显著中介效应。(3)创业学习是重要调节变量,但不同学习方式对不同创业路径的调节效应具有差异性和不确定性。

借势生财还是深度共创?创业生态系统中新创企业成长绩效组态研究

随着创业生态系统逐渐成为新创企业创业的重要基础设施,如何有效利用生态系统资源成为其成长道路上的主要挑战。基于资源编排理论与战略匹配理论,采用fsQCA研究方法对创业园区、孵化器内27家示范企业一手访谈调查数据进行分析,从组态视角探究创业生态系统情境下新创企业主体与资源情境对企业成长绩效的作用机制。结果发现:环境和主体层面的单一要素均不是促使新创企业成长绩效提升的必要条件,高成长绩效是资源情境特征与资源管理行为有效匹配的结果。存在3条高成长绩效实现路径,可归纳为借势生财型和深度共创型;2条非高成长绩效路径分别为雪上加霜型和眼高手低型。资源能力化、资源杠杆化组合与创业生态导向存在替代关系,说明在不同战略导向下新创企业可以采取不同资源管理方法获得高成长绩效。从复杂观与整体观视角解构创业生态系统情境下新创企业成长绩效差异化实现路径,有助于新创企业转变思维方式,提高资源利用效率。结论可为引导各类要素向创业生态系统集聚,提升创业生态系统资源配置水平提供理论支撑。

互联网情境下创业企业创新绩效影响因素研究

基于学习视角,构建市场导向、战略试验、创业学习以及创业企业创新绩效的理论模型,利用190家创业企业的问卷调查数据开展实证检验。研究结果表明:市场导向和战略试验均对创业学习产生显著的正向影响;市场导向和战略试验不仅对创新绩效有直接的正向影响,两者还可以通过创业学习对创新绩效产生间接的正向影响;但是,市场导向对战略试验没有显著的直接影响,说明互联网情境下具有市场导向的创业企业要同时重视通过战略试验所获取的一手数据。

环境不确定性、企业战略反应与动态能力的构建

企业家认知对企业战略变革前瞻性的影响：知识创造过程的中介效应

在企业战略变革前瞻性的形塑与实现过程中,企业家认知和知识创造过程是关键性的前置变量因素,具有差异性影响机理和效应,而现有研究尚未对此进行深入地理论和实证探讨。本文综合运用有限理性理论、社会认知理论以及知识创造理论,剖析企业家认知、知识创造过程与战略变革前瞻性之间的影响机理,并采取统计分析和典型案例考察不同变量的影响关系模式及效应。研究结果表明,企业家认知和知识创造过程存在不同结构维度,它们会对战略变革前瞻性产生差异性影响效应。具体而言,配置认知对战略变革前瞻性具有直接正向影响,却未对知识创造过程产生显著影响;意愿认知通过社会化、外显化和组合化对战略变革前瞻性产生间接影响;能力认知经由社会化和外显化对战略变革前瞻性产生间接影响。从整体性而言,企业家认知对战略变革前瞻性具有直接影响,知识创造过程存在部分中介效应。本研究结论对于企业家认知形塑及知识创造过程不同模式优化,进而促进战略变革前瞻性实现等方面具有积极的启示作用。

本文基于2012~2014年创业板上市公司的非平衡面板数据,研究了高管薪酬激励与创业型企业成长性之间的关系,探讨了创业战略导向作为企业内部的增长战略倾向对上述关系的调节作用。研究结果表明:高管货币薪酬、权益薪酬、薪酬差距与创业型企业成长显著正相关;创业战略导向会负向调节高管货币薪酬与创业型企业成长性之间的关系、正向调节权益薪酬与创业型企业成长性之间的关系,而对薪酬差距与创业型企业成长之间关系的调节作用未得到验证。

战略导向对外部创新搜索策略的影响——基于港资企业的实证研究

从战略管理的视角出发,基于对东莞170家港资企业的调查数据,实证研究了两种最重要的战略导向——市场导向和创业导向对外部创新搜索宽度和深度的影响。研究发现:对于创新基础薄弱的港资企业,市场导向和创业导向对其外部创新搜索宽度策略选择和深度策略选择的影响方向没有差异,两种战略导向均要求企业增大外部创新搜索的宽度和深度。
