論題 | Strategic Make-or-Buy Decision-Supporting Tool |
概要 | Real world outsourcing decisions are very seldom based on a sound trade-off of risks, costs that these risks impose and benefits. The present study attempts to overcome some of these shortcomings by developing a make-or-buy decision-supporting tool entitled [MoB-Tool]. The tool allows one to determine what organizational architecture is best suited to a specified activity. About 50 propositions of make-or-buy decisions, mostly gained from secondary analysis, are collected and ranked. Those propositions are systematically connected to 6 strategic objectives, 3 organizational characteristics, 4 product characteristics and 3 environmental characteristics. The tool helps decision-makers generate a transparent and strategy-oriented solution with fair attention to all important considerations. By contrast, the less structured intuitive approach allows the decision-maker to weigh only a few arguments simultaneously typically those which have current subjective importance for the decider. |

論題 | Employee Perception in Acquired Target Firms |
概要 | This study sheds light on the factors that affect a Japanese target firm's employees' perception of organizational changes after being taken over by a German firm. Specifically, we tested how target firm's employees' perception of fairness and their cultural intelligence influence three variables: job satisfaction, organizational identification and commitment to change. We found that a higher perceived fairness leads to a higher level of job satisfaction and a better organizational identification. We also found that higher cultural intelligence leads to a higher commitment to change. Implications are discussed. |

論題 | When International Joint Ventures Become More Complex: Host Country Experience and Backward Venturing |
概要 | This study examines how host country experience affects the performance outcomes of international joint ventures (IJVs) when partnering foreign and local firms move from traditional equity international joint ventures to extensively specific and integrated international joint ventures such as when backward venturing occurs. This study argues that with the increased operational uniqueness and complexity of IJVs associated with backward venturing, host country experience may be less beneficial or even harmful to IJV performance. In support of this argument, the analysis shows that when IJVs are associated with backward venturing, the effect of host country experience heterogeneity and host country experience within the IJV industry on reducing IJV failure rates decreases, while greater host country experience outside the IJV industry increases the IJV failure rates. |
