The Organizational Culture and Corporate Performance: A Case Study of IBM

Ma, Wei-xi 15 September 2006 (has links)
The concept of organizational culture has been a popular issue since 1980. Also, the study of cultural issues have been linked increasingly with organizational analysis. Since then, cultural studies have been researched tremendously and many researchers started examining the correlation between culture and corporate performance (Pettigrew, 1979; Pfeffer, 1981; Smircich, 1983). The past research findings have been proved that cultural factors not only provide rational explanations for corporate performance for good or bad but also they are surely an important managerial instrument for managers to improve their organizational effectiveness, as well. The methodology of this research is a case study of an IT industry. The research is conducted by a qualitative method of a one-by-one interview to discover the relationship between cultures and performance within an organization. The purpose is to investigate how culture affects performance and what factors would be most significantly to enhance its performance. From the research results, the cultural factors that trigger the corporate performance are those elements including leadership, culture values, staff, behavior, training, motivation, and cultural communication. That refers to an organizational symbolism such as legends, stories, myth, and ritual. Furthermore, the relation between the leadership and culture is somehow like a two-sided coin, which means a leader of an organization represents its culture and ideas; the organizational culture in return reflects the leader¡¦s core values, as well. Managers, therefore, attempt to let all members fit into its particular culture over managerial policy and human resources strategy to increase corporate effectiveness. As the result reveals, people are considered as the most important intellectual capital for the corporate, but the critical factor for it to be successful is culture.

An Assessment Model For Web-based Information System Effectiveness

Tokdemir, Gul 01 January 2009 (has links) (PDF)
Information System (IS) effectiveness assessment is an important issue for the organizations as IS have become critical for their survival. With the incorporation of Internet technologies into the business environment, it is now more difficult to measure IS effectiveness, because Internet provides a borderless, non-stop, flexible communication medium. Assessing the effectiveness of web-based information systems (WIS) is vital for survival and competitive advantage which is a complicated subject since there are several interacting factors to consider. In the literature there are several methods proposed for IS assessment. However, those studies have been far from providing a broad, comprehensive evaluation framework for any type of web-based IS independent of its domain. In this study, a generic WIS effectiveness assessment framework is proposed. The framework is applied in case studies consisting of four organizations in e-commerce and e-banking domains.

The Influence of Functional Roles on the Effectiveness of Virtual Teams

Leu, Wan-Yu 28 July 2000 (has links)
When a face-to-face work group tries to accomplish its collective goals, the effectiveness and maturity of a group hinge on the combination of the functional roles performed by group members¡X task-oriented roles and group maintenance roles [Klopf, 1981; Benne et. al., 1948]. This research examines the phenomenon of group developmental processes, the functional roles performed by group members, and the relationships among certain critical functional roles, group maturity, and team effectiveness in the learning-task oriented virtual team setting. The samples are 24 project teams composed by part-time graduate students in a cyber university. After analyzing the group discussion sections by content analysis method, the development processes of these virtual teams demonstrate Tuckman¡¦s five-stage model of group development: forming, storming, norming, performing and adjourning. For the groups on forming stage, there are only two group maintenance roles ¡X initiator and information seeker/giver, performing by virtual team members. Conflicts between team members are not obvious due to virtual teams¡¦ learning-oriented task. Three group maintenance roles ¡X encourager, gatekeeper, and follower will encourage the occurrence of group cohesiveness and lead virtual teams to norming stage. Furthermore, when groups mature, four emerging task-oriented roles ¡X opinion seeker/giver, coordinator, orienter and evaluator will enhance the virtual team effectiveness. Negative functional roles (process-hindering roles) are rare due to virtual team¡¦s learning-oriented task. Therefore, this result indicates that members in a virtual team should play different critical positive functional roles according to their group¡¦s developmental stages, and it will facilitate group evolvement and improve team effectiveness.

The influence of directive supervisor's chaxu geju to leadership behaviors and effectiveness

Lin, Ming-Tsun 04 February 2002 (has links)
ABSTRACT For long, scholars have been using the research tools invented in the western world to examine the leadership styles developed in western societies. With so many cultural differences between western and eastern societies, it¡¦s very difficult to explain the leadership styles and phenomena of Chinese leaders if only the same research tools are applied. In the past, many researches on the relationship between leadership behavior and leadership effectiveness were only focused on leadership behavior before leadership effectiveness was narrated; however, whether a leadership style works or how effectively it works isn¡¦t decided by the leader only. Thus, in this study, 297 pairs of supervisors and subordinates from 30 banks in central Taiwan (2 regional centers and 63 branches) were selected for an empirical study. Their background information was collected for the analysis of chaxu geju¡Xa criterion of categorization for relationship, loyalty and capability. Every subordinate was categorized into an ¡§insider¡¨ or ¡§outsider¡¨ according to the perception of his/her supervisor. Then, the relationship between the performance of every subordinate and the leadership behavior (patriarchal leadership: authoritarianism, benevolence and moral) of his/her supervisor were analyzed for leadership effectiveness. The findings of this study showed the Chinese supervisors would objectively categorize their subordinates into ¡§insiders¡¨ and ¡§outsiders¡¨ according to the rank of relationship, loyalty and capability. The supervisors tended to give ¡§insiders¡¨ better performance evaluation. The insiders felt they were given more benevolence and moral, but less authoritarianism; the outsiders felt just the opposite. The Chinese supervisors had greater personal attachment to the insiders and allocated more resources to them, so the insiders had better work attitude and performance; the outsiders was the contrary. Without equal treatment, the leadership effectiveness in the insiders and in the outsiders was different. Finally a concrete brief on the limitations of the study, further research direction in the future and how the study was related to the management in the real world was presented. Key words: chaxu geju (a multiplicity of individual distinctions of rank and distance), criterion of categorization, leadership behavior, leadership effectiveness

A Study on the Relationship between Training and Nonstandard Work Arrangement in High-Tech Industry ¡V A Case Study of Hsinchu Science-Based Industrial Park

Lin, Chia-Yu 10 August 2003 (has links)
This research focuses on training bundles, nonstandard work arrangement and their relationship in high-tech industry, and the conclusions are listed as follows, 1. Training bundles and training effectiveness Training practicability has a positive impact on employee productivity, company profitability, innovation and reduction of employee turnover rates. Training institutionalization has a positive impact on employee productivity and company profitability. Rather than reducing employee turnover rates, training has the greater positive impact on employee productivity. Furthermore, larger organizations have higher level of training practicability. 2. Nonstandard work arrangement in high-tech industry As the data showed, over 80% companies ever had nonstandard work arrangement in 2002, and in the companies that had such arrangement, fixed-term hires and subcontractors were mostly used. To adjust for business fluctuations and reduce administrative workload are first two reasons why companies use nonstandard work arrangement. Limited head count and personnel cost saving are also important factors to hire nonstandard workers. In particular, cost saving is the most important factor for companies to use subcontractors. About the occupational structure, most nonstandard workers are either present in the position of administration or production. Only subcontractors are most present in the service occupations such as janitors, cleaners or caterers. With regard to personnel cost saving, compare to using dispatched workers, part-time workers and fixed-term hires are more helpful to reduce the personnel cost. 3. Training bundles and nonstandard work arrangement The result indicates that the level of training bundles can not be the determinant of using nonstandard work arrangement. Besides, we found that organization size has a positive effect on using nonstandard work arrangement, fixed-term hires, dispatched workers and subcontractors.
