中小企業轉型─以台灣醫療器材廠商為例 / SMB Business Transformation: A case study of a medical device company in Taiwan

郭益璠, Kuo, Terry Unknown Date (has links)
中小企業轉型─以台灣醫療器材廠商為例 / The focus of this study is to discuss business transformation strategies that have been implemented by the case company, a 30-year-old small enterprise in medical market in Taiwan. The case company has been facing strong pressure from the competitive market and this study investigates the environmental causes and drivers that lead to the case company’s business transformation decisions. A case study format was used in this research and environmental factors were first introduced to readers to understand the unique background of medical market in Taiwan then what stimulated the case company’s management to make strategic decisions. In order to sustain in the market, the case company had to diversify its product lines in order to share the potential risk of distribution lost and to meet the increasing demands in the elderly related care market. SWOT analysis is used in this paper to exam the case company’s internal and external environments and help to set up strategy plans. Strategy map was used as a guideline to evaluate its transformation processes and suggestions were made for further discussion.

The Development of an Appropriate Strategy Map : An application of strategy map theory on China Mobile

Zhao, Lei, Chen, Meng January 2008 (has links)
<p>After several years practice and research, companies and researchers have agreed thatmanagement of a company can not only rely on financial performance measures, butnon-financial measures should be also included in the set of tools. One of the mostpopular approaches to solve this problem are BSC (Balanced Scorecard) combiningwith KPI (Key Performance Indicators).Balanced Scorecard has been introduced by Kaplan and Norton in 1992 whichconsists of a set of financial and non-financial measures which are categorized in fourperspectives “financial”, “customer”, “internal processes”, and “learning and growth”.Key performance indicators are financial and non-financial metrics used to help acompany define and measure progress toward goals and KPIs are typically tied to anorganization's strategy through Balanced Scorecard.In this thesis we limit our study to the Mobile Network Operator industry, use casestudy, as the research design, with a combination of quantitative and qualitativeresearch methods. We summarized the limitation of the initial Balanced Scorecard,discussed the demand and benefits of strategy map, researched on principles andcriteria of a suitable strategy map. Ultimately, we formulated the process of how todesign a strategy map.In practice, after several years of dramatic development, along with the saturation ofthe market and the fierce competitions, mobile network industry stepped into the ageof depression; the sudden huge profits have been over. While a new wirelesstechnology, 3G offers the mobile network operators (MNOs) a new chance toimprove their value added services with high speed bandwidth from 3G technology,and make more profit from it. European 3G markets is the most competitive anddeveloped now, while the Japan 3G was already in an advanced level. In the recentyears, China as the biggest developing country also wants to start the 3G market.With the defined KPIs, we benchmarked the performance of China Mobile to thethree world’s leading MNOs, Vodafone, “3”, and NTT; ascertained the situation ofChina Mobile, set goals and discovered the cause-effect linkage of the KPIs, andfinally formulate a strategy map for China Mobile according to the analysis. Thestrategy map is based on four perspectives, financial, customers, internal and learningand innovation perspectives, and in each perspective, practical solutions which arebased on their strengths and weaknesses are provided. With the help of this research,the company can trace their problems and find the solutions for them.</p>

En resa från balanserat styrkort till strategikarta : Strategistyrning i Eskilstuna kommun / A Journey from Balanced Scorecard to Strategy Map

Truedsson, Jonas, Andersson Dahlborg, Patrik January 2008 (has links)
<p>Problem: Hur en verksamhet skall styras har länge varit föremål för debatt. Kaplan och Nortons balanserade styrkort har sedan mitten på 1990-talet varit populärt då även mjukare värden (kund-, process- och lärandeperspektiv) synliggörs. På senare år har de kompletterat diskussionen om styrmodeller med en strategikarta. Denna strukturerar upp arbetet med att bryta ner de övergripande strategierna till konkreta handlingsplaner. I första hand är strategikartan tänkt som ett komplement för att ge ett strategibaserat underlag till styrkortet men har i många fall ersatt styrkortet genom att fungera som ett fristående styrsystem.</p><p>Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är att beskriva och analysera det stöd som styrmodellerna balanserade styrkort och strategikartor kan ge vid styrningen av en verksamhet. Ett delsyfte är att diskutera vilka synergieffekter som kan uppstå vid parallell användning.</p><p>Metod: Författarna har genomfört en fallstudie i Eskilstuna kommun. Insamling av data har gjorts med kvalitativ metod. Semi-strukturerade intervjuer har genomförts med tre respondenter i chefsposition på kommunen. En ostrukturerad intervju med respondent på Stratsys AB har kompletterat undersökningen.</p><p>Resultat: Eskilstuna kommun har nyligen infört ett styrsystem från Stratsys. Systemet baseras huvudsakligen på den strategibaserade strategikartan men med ett mindre inslag från styrkortet. Tidigare har en förvaltning använt styrkort som styrsystem. Kommunen har trots goda erfarenheter av styrkortet valt att utveckla detta till strategikartor. Kommunledningen ser gärna en parallell användning men förvaltningen anser att det administrativa arbetet skulle bli för omfattande. Vår undersökning pekar på att systemen ger olika typer av stöd till styrningen. Enligt de teoretiska utgångspunkterna kompletterar de varandra och dessutom har vi definierat ett antal tänkbara synergieffekter. Ett pilotprojekt i nämnda förvaltning där de bägge system används parallellt bör därför startas.</p> / <p>Problem: How to manage a business is a subject that has been debated for a long time. Since the middle of the 1990´s the Balanced Scorecard of Kaplan and Norton has been popular because of its consideration to different values (customer-, internal- and learning and growth perspective). Recently these authors have complemented the debate about management systems with the Strategy Map. It structures the work by breaking down the overall strategies to concrete activities. The Strategy Map is supposed to complement the Balanced Scorecard but has in many cases replaced it by working as a self-contained management system.</p><p>Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to describe and analyze the management support that is possible to derive from Balanced Scorecards and Strategy Maps. A sub purpose is to discuss the synergy effects related to parallel operating.</p><p>Method: The authors have carried out a case study at Eskilstuna kommun. A qualitative method has been used when collecting data. Semi structured interviews has been conducted with three executives at Eskilstuna kommun. One unstructured interview with a respondent at Stratsys AB has complemented the investigation.</p><p>Result: Eskilstuna kommun has recently introduced a new management system from Stratsys. The system is mainly based on the strategy based Strategy Map combined with a minor contribution from the Balanced Scorecard. One administration has used Balanced Scorecard since a few years. Though the council had positive experiences from the scorecard they decided to introduce the use of Strategy Map at all administrations. The council management would like to see parallel use but the administration think the administrative work would be to comprehensive. Our investigation indicates that the systems support the management process in different ways. According to the theoretical sources they complement each other and we have found some possible synergy effects. We therefore suggest a pilot study with parallel use in one administration.</p>

Den komplexa styrningen : En studie om styrning vid Linköpings Universitet / The complexity of management control : A study of management control at Linköping University

Fränne, Maria, Persson, Hanna January 2011 (has links)
Bakgrund och problem: Det finns mycket litteratur skrivet kring styrning i privat verksamhet, dock glöms den offentliga sektorn ofta bort, trots att styrning krävs även i dessa verksamheter. I denna studie kommer att fokuseras kring styrning i den offentliga sektorn och närmare bestämt i den akademiska världen. Anställda inom akademin värderar ofta friheten att själva kunna organisera sitt arbete högt, vilken kan hämmas av de finansiella begränsningar som dessa organisationer innehar. Här har strategin en viktig uppgift i att visa för de anställda i vilken riktning de ska sträva och få dem att fokusera på rätt saker. Vi ser att de finansiella begränsningarna kan hämma de anställdas frihet och på så vis påverka motivationen negativt. Frågan är då hur de chefer som arbetar närmast de anställda ska kunna styra dem att fortsätta arbeta med bibehållen motivation och samtidigt hålla sig inom de finansiella ramarna. Syfte: Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur första linjens chefer vid Linköpings Universitet styr de anställda att agera i enlighet med den strategi som finns och hur styrningen uppfattas av de anställda. Metod: För att besvara uppsatsens syfte har en fallstudie vid Linköpings Universitet genomförts. Fallstudien har genomförts kvalitativt genom 15 intervjuer på tre utvalda institutioner på den filosofiska fakulteten. Intervjuer har valts för att få en djupare förståelse för ämnet. Slutsats: Vi kan konstatera att chefer och anställda har en relativt lika syn i de flesta frågeställningar vi berört. Vi kan även konstatera att första linjens chefer vid Linköpings Universitet inte behöver styra sina underordnade i någon hög utsträckning då de anställda innehar ett brinnande intresse för sitt ämne och är självstyrande. Inom akademin innehar anställda en stark individualism och självständighet, vilket vi ser tyder på att de anställda inte behöver några tydliga mål för vad de ska uppnå. / Background and problem: There is much literature written on management control in private businesses but the public sector is often forgotten, despite the fact that management is also required in these businesses. This study will focus on management control in the public sector and more specifically in the academia. Employees of the academia often value the freedom to have the possibility to organize their work, which can be inhibited by financial constraints that these organizations hold. Here the strategy has an important role in demonstrating to the employees in which direction to pursue and get them to focus their efforts on the right things. We see that the financial limitations may inhibit employees' freedom and thereby affect their motivation negatively. The question then is how the managers who work most closely with the staff are able to steer them to continue working with the same motivation, while staying within the financial framework. Aim: The purpose of this study is to investigate how the first-line managers at Linköping University control the employees to act in accordance with the strategy and how this control is perceived by employees. Methodology: To answer the purpose for this thesis we have chosen to do a case study of Linköping University. The case study has been carried out qualitatively by 15 interviews in three selected departments at the Faculty of Arts &amp; Sciences. Interviews were chosen to obtain a deeper understanding of the topic. Conclusion: We can say that managers and employees have a relatively similar view of most issues in the thesis. We can also observe that first-line managers at Linköping University don´t need to direct their subordinates to any great extent because the employees have a passion for their subject and are self-monitored. Within the university, staff have a strong individualism and independence, which we see imply that employees don’t need any clear objectives for what they should achieve.

Study on Architecture-Oriented Semiconductor Manufacturing Company R&D Laboratory Business Strategy Model

Tsai, Chao-hsin 04 January 2012 (has links)
Nowadays, world-wide enterprises have a new situation after the financial crisis in 2008. Environment faced by the enterprises is so sinister that a small mistake may bring fatal collapse. Business strategy becomes an important issue. The business strategy is used to guide the organization and people to the business vision and goals. It makes shareholders, customers, and members know why the enterprise exists, for what and whom they are fighting. Therefore, the first step of the ¡§business strategy management¡¨ is to construct the ¡§business strategy architecture. Business strategy architecture integrates multiple views of an enterprise to achieve the business strategy synergy. Strategy map uses text, graphics, and process-oriented languages to describe the business strategy. However, using these languages to express the business strategy will result in great difficulties of strategy implementation and resources distribution. Because the strategy map is a process-oriented model, it cares more on the organization behavior view and can not integrate with the organization structure view. In this study, we develop an Architecture-Oriented Research & Development Laboratory Business Strategy Model (AORDLBSM) which is based on the six fundamental diagrams of Structure-Behavior Coalescence (SBC) Architecture. AORDLBSM improves the strategy map model in integrating the structure and behavior views. The results of the study show that AORDLBSM is a macro to the micro, from whole to part of the strategy thinking. AORDLBSM integrates organization structure and organization behavior so tightly that it is able to transform implicit knowledge into explicit knowledge. We conclude that AORDLBSM is a description tool that can transform the abstract concept into a real system that enables the organization and people accomplish strategies successfully.

The research of the strategy goal and the dynamic decision-making mechanism ¡Ð ¢å Electronics Corporation for example

Wu, Lu-hui 04 July 2005 (has links)
Abstract Strategy Map shows the cause and effect relationships diagram which is selected the goal projects of four perspectives from Balanced Scorecard (BSC) , it is a more advanced managed tool than BSC. But both have not contained the feedback circulation of the strategies also fail to judge and prove the influence of events¡¦ time delays , they are unable to simulate the complicated environment, to lack the strategy¡¦s simulation, and not to inspect the impact on performance of the strategy further. This research proceeds case study with the method of System Dynamics and uses ¡§the strategy¡¦s goal planning and dynamic decision procedure¡¨, it launches the case¡¦s Strategy Map and Balanced Scorecard then proceeds System Dynamics modeling, simulation , testing and analyzing, and proposes the conclusion of this research. This research discovers mainly as: 1. The use of Strategy Map and Balanced Scorecard can help system Dynamics to make the system boundary conveniently while the enterprise¡¦s strategy model are developing. 2. Strategy Map and Balanced Scorecard are static, simple, without positive and negative relationships, and one-way causality link from bottom to top. They pay close attention to the short-term goal and neglect the long-term goal, also don¡¦t consider the time delays, but System Dynamics can make up their deficiency. 3. The levels and auxiliaries of System Dynamics Model Structure can assist the measures of Balanced Scorecard to be instituted and be discussed. 4. The system thinking from System Dynamics can prove general objective and intuitional thought, also can get counterintuition. 5. Each KPI of Balanced Scorecard only knows the ¡§up and down¡¨ change in itself, doesn¡¦t understand the dynamic colloction between each other, from System Dynamics simulation can tell the influence of each other KPI. Finally, propound 5 points of this research: 1. To integrate the theories of strategy management for application. 2. To explain the changeful meaning of the performance indicator and to strengthen the performance management. 3. To assist the examing of the strategies to obtain proper decision. 4. To find the counterintuition which can help enterprises to dig unexpected questions out of the objective intuition. 5. To analyze the revenue of the strategy actions and the cost benefit, also to help the system of the budget and the strategies estimate.
