From Global to Local : A qualitative study on how the Swedish labour law regulations LAS and MBL affect operations of pharmaceutical MNCsBrändewall, Dafina, Ekström, Oskar January 2024 (has links)
The global pharmaceutical industry is a highly competitive and rapidly changing environment, defined by rigorous regulations and a constant need for new discoveries and developments. Pharmaceutical MNCs operate in a variety of legal and cultural contexts, making it crucial for them to possess a thorough understanding of local laws and customs to ensure regulatory compliance and long-term business sustainability. The combination of a strong economy, a robust research and development infrastructure, and a highly skilled workforce has positioned Sweden as an appealing destination for pharmaceutical MNCs seeking to expand their global presence. This thesis investigates the impact of Swedish labour law, specifically the Co-Determination Act (MBL) and the Employment Protection Act (LAS), on multinational pharmaceutical companies operating in Sweden. Through a qualitative study incorporating semi-structured interviews with HR directors from two leading pharmaceutical MNCs and legal experts from two corporate law firms, the study explores how these regulations influence operational strategies, decision-making processes, and human resource management practices. The findings highlight the complexities MNCs face in complying with MBL and LAS, including extended decision-making timelines and challenges with employee retention and termination due to the “last in, first out” principle. However, the study also identifies benefits such as enhanced employee morale and trust, which contribute to a positive work environment. The conclusions suggest that while these two regulations impose significant operational constraints, they also offer strategic advantages that can lead to improved employee engagement and organisational stability. While primarily focusing on the management perspective within MNCs, this study leaves the employee viewpoint unexplored. Future research could explore the employeee xperience to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the impact of MBL and LAS. Additionally, while centred on the pharmaceutical industry, the findings may have broader implications for other industries and could pave the way for further research into how these regulations affect various industries and potentially influence foreign direct investment in Sweden. Given the limited sample size, further research with a larger and more diverse sample is also warranted to validate and generalise these results. Nevertheless, this study provides insights for new MNCs navigating the Swedish labourlaw landscape, aiding in strategic planning and decision-making.

國際併購策略與整合-以中美矽晶為例 / A Case Study on the International M&A and Integration黃渝婷 Unknown Date (has links)
在現今競爭激烈且日益趨向全球化的市場上,企業追求成長的壓力不斷的增加,企業若是無法持續成長,就可能隨時被市場淘汰,而併購是企業追求成長的重要方式之一,企業併購通常被認為可以帶給企業獲利、加速發展、提升市場占有率、實現規模經濟、掌握上下游資源、取得專利技術等諸多好處,但看似美好的背後往往潛藏著許多看不見的危機,嚴重的話更可能帶來併購失敗的災難性後果。而企業合併後馬上面臨許多整合問題,包含人事安排、組織改造、市場整合以及品牌定位等重要項目。跨國的企業併購更需要考量不同的國情文化、法律以及政治問題,併購成功與否的關鍵也更加複雜。
本研究欲探討的是國際併購的動機、併購整合的關鍵成功因素,有鑑於全球半導體產業已趨成熟,競爭也越來越白熱化,特別以半導體產業的國際併購為研究的主題,採用深入訪問,重視研究中的第一手資料,解析個案公司如何從併購初期評估到併購後管理的決策與執行過程,如何以尊重和執行力來重新組織被併公司的制度並保存優良的原有企業文化、增加生產力,讓併購後組織能快速提升運作效率與維持彈性,併購後資源的共享、技術及智財的交流,持續提升研發創新能力、增加員工歸屬感及信賴感都是重要的因素,巧妙融合人性化管理,才是真正戰力升級的關鍵,此個案值得作為國際企業併購決策者對於併購評估與提升經營效率之學習標竿。 / Nowadays, due to the highly competitive and gradually-globalized market, the pressure on enterprises to pursue growth increases continually. If enterprises failed to continue to grow in the market, they would be eliminated through competition. M&A (merger and acquisition), as one of the most important ways to pursue business growth, is generally thought to bring corporate profits, accelerated development, increased market share and achieve economies of scale, master upstream and downstream resources, patented technology and many other benefits. However, there are also many invisible crises that can bring enterprises catastrophic consequences. Once the M&A is decided, the enterprise will immediately face lots of issues, including personnel arrangements, reconstruction of organization, market integration and brand positioning. When it comes to cross-border M&A, the key to the success is much more complex, as the different national cultures, legal and political issues need to be considered by the enterprise at the same time.
In this study, the motivation of international M&A, and the critical factors of successful merger integration were explored. In view of the global semiconductor industry has matured and the competition has become increasingly intense, the research topic was focused on the international M&A in the semiconductor industry. By using in-depth interviews as the first-hand research data, the case company’s early acquisition evaluations and post-merger management decisions were resolved in detail. In conclusion, the keys to upgrading a company’s competitiveness are how to reorganize and keep the acquired company's system and original excellent culture through a respectful way, how to quickly improve operational efficiency and increase productivity of the merged corporation without sacrificing organization flexibility, continuing to enhance research and innovation capacity by sharing and exchanging technologies and intellectual property resources, and increasing employees’ sense of belonging and trust via integrating humane management. This case is worth as an important reference to international M&A decision makers for evaluation and enhancing the operational efficiency in the future.

Study of evolution in human resources management programs in organizations. Application of "Path Dependence" and "Cladistics"Perelló Marín, María Rosario 01 September 2015 (has links)
[EN] This doctoral thesis analyses human resources management evolution in organizations. That is, changes introduced throughout people management. The key objective is to analyze how organizations evolve and change over time by means of human capital. Recent years have demonstrated that levels of adjustment and change required by organizations in order to adapt to a changing environment, are increasingly high. One of the main drivers behind this organizational change, is the introduction of new programs and tools that help organizations to improve their business performance. This work is focused on the identification and analysis of such programs in the field of human resources management. In particular: what sort of HRM practices are implemented, in what sort of organization, at which point in time, and finally, in which order.
Although there are numerous studies to date analyzing HRM practices, none of them introduce methodologies that consider order or time factor within the management process of HR. This is the reason why 'path dependence' and 'cladistics' approaches are introduced in this doctoral thesis.
'Path dependence' approach shows how certain management decision taken at a certain point of time, influence future decisions. This makes it all the more essential to press ahead with analysis of where we come from and which path we have followed before being designed the future strategy of the organization.
According to this approach, throughout this doctoral thesis, cladistics is used as methodology for analyzing organizations from a different perspective of people management compared to the habitual viewpoints. Cladistics is a methodology that can be used in the decision-making process; moreover, it allows identifying the expected result of implementing certain bundles of HRM practices, taking also into account HRM practices already implemented. It considers therefore, also prior organization history. This methodology, for the analysis and classification, has been commonly used in the field of biology for many years. Throughout this doctoral thesis, the transference of this methodology to HRM is shown.
Biologist use Cladistics in order to build evolutionary maps termed as cladograms. Cladograms are graphic representations of animal species evolution. This methodology has already been used in fields other than biology, such as linguistics or astronomy among others. In management, it has not yet been developed sufficiently; in particular, the most relevant examples in this field are in operations management area.
The purpose of this work is to extrapolate the basics of Cladistics to HRM field. In doing so, HRM practices have been analyzed, such as personnel selection, rewards systems, appraisal systems, training, etc¿ The bundle of HRM practices that certain organization has been implemented at certain point of time will determine what kind of organization is. Thus, a evolutionary map is built. It can be use as a benchmarking tool in order to analyze what sort of HRM practices has been implemented by competitors, haw far they have gone, and in what sort of organization have become.
In this work, a simple example of evolution in time of Spanish manufacturing companies is shown. The organization growth in size (number of employees) has been considered as evolutionary factor. This is due to the fact that, as number of employees increase, HRM programs have to be different. Furthermore, a preliminary application of Cladistics is offered in hospitality sector. / [ES] La presente tesis estudia la evolución del sistema de gestión de recursos humanos en las organizaciones. Es decir, cambios introducidos a través de la gestión de personas. El objetivo principal de la tesis es analizar cómo las empresas van evolucionando y cambiando en el tiempo a través del capital humano. En los últimos años se ha demostrado que los niveles de adaptación y cambio que requieren las organizaciones para adaptarse a su entorno cambiante, son cada vez más elevados. Uno de los motores que facilitan este cambio organizacional, es la introducción de nuevos programas de gestión y herramientas que ayuden a las organizaciones a mejorar sus resultados empresariales. Este trabajo se centra en la identificación y análisis de estos programas en el ámbito de la gestión de RRHH. En particular: qué prácticas de RRHH se implementan, en qué tipo de empresas, en qué momento y, por último, en qué orden.
Aunque ya existen numerosos estudios que analizan las prácticas de RRHH, hasta el momento, no existen herramientas que introduzcan el factor orden o tiempo en este proceso gestión de RRHH. Ésta es la causa por en esta tesis se utilizan los enfoques de 'path dependence' y 'cladistics'.
El concepto de 'Path dependence', muestra cómo las decisiones de gestión que son tomadas en un momento determinado, influyen en las decisiones futuras. Este hecho hace que, antes de diseñar la estrategia a seguir en el futuro, se haya de analizar de dónde venimos y que camino se ha seguido para llegar hasta aquí.
Bajo este enfoque, a lo largo de esta tesis, se utiliza la cladística como metodología de análisis de las organizaciones desde una perspectiva de gestión de personas diferente a las habituales en este ámbito. La Cladistica es una metodología que puede ser empleada como herramienta de toma de decisiones, y que permite identificar qué resultado se obtendría tras implantar un conjunto determinado de prácticas de gestión de RRHH, en función de las que ya se han implantado previamente (y por tanto de la historia previa de la organización). Esta metodología de análisis y clasificación ha sido comúnmente empleada en el ámbito de la biología y a lo largo de la presente tesis, se muestra cómo puede transferirse a la gestión de RRHH.
Los biólogos, emplean la Cladística para la construcción de mapas evolutivos denominados cladogramas. Éstos son representaciones gráficas de la evolución de las especies animales. Si bien esta metodología se ha empleado ya en otros ámbitos diferentes a la biología, tales como la lingüística o la astronomía entre otros; en el área de management se ha desarrollado poco aún estando enmarcados los ejemplos más relevantes en el área de la gestión de operaciones.
En este trabajo se extrapolan los conceptos básicos de la Cladistica al área de la gestión de recursos humanos. Para ello se estudian las prácticas de recursos humanos, tales como la selección de personal, sistemas de retribución, sistemas de evaluación, formación, etc¿ El tipo de prácticas de RRHH que ha seguido una determinada organización a lo largo del tiempo, es lo que determinará a qué tipo de organización pertenecen. Así, se construye un mapa evolutivo que puede emplearse como herramienta de benchmarking para ver qué practicas han implementado otros, dónde han llegado con ello y en qué tipo de organización se han convertido.
En esta tesis se muestra un ejemplo sencillo de evolución en el tiempo de empresas en el sector manufacturero español, considerando como factor evolutivo el crecimiento en tamaño de organización (número de empleados). Entendiendo que, a medida que se incrementa el número de empleados, los programas de gestión de personas han de ser diferentes. Así mismo, se presenta una aplicación preliminar de la Cladistica al sector hospitality. / [CAT] Aquesta tesi estudia l'evolució del sistema de gestió de recursos humans a les organitzacions. És a dir, els canvis realitzats a través de la gestió de persones. L'objectiu principal de la tesi és analitzar com les empreses estan evolucionant i canviant en el temps a través de la capital humà. En els darrers anys s'ha demostrat que els nivells d'adaptació i canvi que requereixen les organitzacions a adaptar-se al seu entorn canviant, són cada cop més elevats. Un dels motors que facilita aquest canvi organitzacional és la introducció de nous programes de gestió i ferramentes que ajuden les organitzacions a millorar els seus resultats de negoci. Aquest treball es centra en la identificació i anàlisi d'aquests programes en l'àmbit de gestió de recursos humans. En particular: quines pràctiques RRHH estan implementades, a quin tipus d'empreses, quan i, finalment, en quin ordre. Encara que hi ha nombrosos estudis que analitzen les pràctiques RRHH, fins ara, no hi ha cap ferramenta que introdueixen el factor ordre o temps en aquest procés de gestió de recursos humans. Aquesta és la raó per la cual s'utilitzen en aquesta tesi els enfocaments de "dependència del camí' i 'cladística'.
El concepte de "Path dependence", mostra com les decisions de gestió que es prenen en un moment donat, influencien les decisions futures. Això significa que, abans de dissenyar l'estratègia a seguir en el futur, cal analitzar d'on venim així com el camí que s'ha seguit per arribar fins ací.
Davall este enfocament, al llarg d'esta tesi, s'utilitza la cladística com a metodologia d'anàlisi de les organitzacions des d'una perspectiva de gestió de persones diferent de les habituals en este àmbit. La Cladistica és una metodologia que pot ser empleada com a ferramenta de presa de decisions, i que permet identificar què resultat s'obtindria després d'implantar un conjunt determinat de pràctiques de gestió de RRHH, en funció de què ja s'han implantat prèviament (i per tant de la història prèvia de l'organització). Esta metodologia d'anàlisi i classificació ha sigut comunament empleada en l'àmbit de la biologia i al llarg de la present tesi, es mostra com pot transferir-se a la gestió de RRHH.
Els biòlegs, usen la Cladística per a la construcció de mapes evolutius denominats cladogramas. Aquests són representacions gràfiques de l'evolució d'spècies animals. Si bé esta metodologia s'ha utilitzat ja en altres àmbits diferents de la biologia, com ara la lingüística o l'astronomia entre altres; en l'àrea de management s'ha desenvolupat poc encara, estant emmarcats els exemples més rellevants en l'àrea de la gestió d'operacions.
En aquest treball s'extrapolen els conceptes bàsics de la Cladistica a l'àrea de la gestió de recursos humans. Per a això s'estudien les pràctiques de recursos humans, com ara la selecció de personal, sistemes de retribució, sistemes d'avaluació, formació, etc... Les pràctiques de recursos humans que ha seguit una organització particular al llarg del temps, és el que determinarà a quin tipus d'organització pertanyen. Així, es construïx un mapa evolutiu que es pot utilitzar com a ferramenta de benchmarking per a veure què practiques ha implementat la competnecia, a on han arribat amb això, i en quin tipus d'organització s'han convertit.
A aquesta tesi es mostra un exemple senzill d'evolució en el temps d'empreses en el sector manufacturer espanyol, considerant com a factor evolutiu el creixement en grandària de l'organització (nombre d'empleats) . Entenent que, a mesura que s'incrementa el nombre d'empleats, els programes de gestió de persones han de ser diferents. Així mateix, es presenta una aplicació preliminar de la Cladistica al sector hospitality. / Perelló Marín, MR. (2015). Study of evolution in human resources management programs in organizations.

國際精品採購代理公司成長策略:以桌上用品和家居擺飾產業為例 / Growth Strategy of Buying Agent: Tableware & Home Décor陳麗春, Chen, Li Chun Unknown Date (has links)
在2000年後,由於大陸外貿的崛起,大陸禮品業者也在國際展場中嶄露頭角;許多國外買家為其低廉的價格吸引下單,但是之後衍生出來的品質、交期的問題則層出不窮。 國外買家的無奈在於期間的溝通,也深刻體驗到大陸人的商場文化 – 「什麼都沒問題!」(Everything is NO PROBLEM = OK & YES)。等貨到國外倉庫,開箱一看,所有問題就完整呈現了。 其中的語言溝通、消費市場的需求、文化差異 … 等是主要因素。 問題發生後, 解決方案的合理性也是從事國際貿易者所要具備的能力之ㄧ。
這時有些較積極、採購項目繁多、產品屬中低價位的國外買家就會派人來中國大陸探路,設立採購辦事處 (Buying Office)。初期會在香港成立運作子公司,主要以搜尋產品、採購、驗貨為主要業務;慢慢進入大陸本土,如深圳、廣州、廈門、 上海等沿岸城市; 近期內地的興起,因應產業不同的需求,也紛紛設點遍及北京、天津、太原、重慶、成都等重點城市。 但這些採購辦事處 (Buying Office) 的組織運作中, 高階管理人可能是外國總公司直接派遣,但往下的工作很多需要用到大陸的人力,而衍生出採購拿回扣、驗貨拿紅包的弊端。
同時也有一些產品屬中低價位的國外買家,他們並未躁進;但因應貿易環境的改變,為了避免設立採購辦事處的風險,他們也會透過一些第三方驗貨的服務公司 (The 3rd Party Inspection),替他們把關品質。 當然這類的公司多為大陸人組織運作,衍生出來的弊病也較單純,就是驗貨拿紅包;但犧牲的就是品質了。
最後,就是有一些保守派的國際精品買家,我們稱他們為禮品業「金字塔頂端」的少數買家。 他們在價格彈性有空間的條件下,會把搜尋產品、驗廠、採購、驗貨等業務委外給值得信任的公司,並簽下採購代理的合約,做為外國公司在亞洲的備用團隊 (Backup Team),為其公司的功能性部門加長了戰線。
本研究從行銷策略、商業模式、服務創新、供應鏈整合等理論出發,結合國際精品採購代理公司Tableware & Home Décor產業,提出了一個新的國際精品採購代理公司的未來的成長機會。 這個成長的機會中建議公司進行客戶、供應商整合及內部人才的培育,有助於公司降低交易成本、更好的服務客戶,提升原有服務品質並提供新的附加服務,增強採購代理的競爭力及績效,並在公司既有的核心能力下創造更多的成長機會。 / After 2000, due to the rise of China's foreign trade, the gift industry also emerged at the international exhibition; many foreign buyers are attracted by its low prices and placed orders, but then derived from the quality, delivery problems are endless. The frustration is that foreign buyers not only during the communication, but also a profound experience to the mainland's mall culture - "Everything is no problem." (NO PROBLEM = OK & YES). But when goods is delivered to foreign warehouses, out of the box and saw all the problems presented to the full. The main factor is the language, communication, consumer markets, cultural differences ... and so on. After the problem occurs, the international trader has the ability to be a problem solver, who should provide the reasonable solution subsequently.
At the same time there are also some middle-low-priced driven foreign buyers, they did not rush things; but faced the trade environment changes, in order to avoid the risk of buying offices, they will through some the 3rd Party service company for them to check the quality. Of course, many of these the 3rd Party companies operate by Mainland people, the weaknesses they found are simpler, that is, an inspector get a red envelope when they conduct inspections; but is the quality of the sacrifice.
Finally, there are some conservative international boutique buyers; we call them the buyers of the gift industry "pyramid". They have room on price elasticity conditions, they will outsourced a trusted company for products sourcing, audits, procurement, inspection and other services, and signed a contract procurement agency, as its foreign companies in Asia, alternate team (Backup Team), for which the company's functional departments lengthened the front.
In this study, starts from marketing strategy, business model, service innovation, supply chain integration theory, combined with international boutique procurement agent Tableware & Home Décor industry, proposed a new international boutique procurement agent's future growth opportunities. The opportunities for growth companies recommended customers, suppliers and internal integration of the nurturing of talents, helps companies reduce transaction costs, has better customer service, improve the quality of existing services and provide new additional services, enhance the competitive procurement agency power and performance, and in the company under the existing core competencies to create more growth opportunities.
