A Study of Human Resource Investment, Human Capital, and Firm PerformanceYeh, Chu-chen 24 July 2006 (has links)
Abstract
This research attempted to explain the relationship among HR investment, organizational human capital and firm performance. A positive link between a firm¡¦s HR investment and its performance through the mediating effect of overall human capital was proposed. Alternative hypotheses were presented to test the effect of different HR investment portfolios on various human capital dimensions, as well as the link between these human capital dimensions and firm performance outcomes. A review on the concept of human capital revealed several problems in the research of human capital at organizational level. Four new latent constructs (quantity of human capital, human capital-organization fit, complementarity of human capital, and specificity of human capital) were extracted from the literature to form a new paradigm in the measurement of organizational level human capital. This new paradigm represented a resource-based perspective.
Data were collected from top executives of 105 companies located in the US and in Taiwan in the knowledge-intensive industry segments such as professional service, financial service, R&D, and hi-tech manufacturing, etc. Survey questionnaires were used as data collection instrument. Confirmatory factor analysis using LISREL was performed to test validity and reliability of new measurement scales. Hierarchical regression statistics were used to test the hypotheses.
The results showed that HR investment had significant positive impact on firm performance and was significantly related to higher level of human capital in a firm as measured by the quantity of human capital, human capital-organization fit, complementarity of human capital, and specificity of human capital. Further, the mediating effect of firm-level human capital between HR investment and firm performance was substantiated. This study also tested a more complex model linking two HR investment portfolios to four dimensions of human capital and firm performance outcomes. The findings showed that higher level of acquisition investment was linked to higher level of human capital-organization fit, complementarity of human capital, and specificity of human capital. More significantly, a higher level of development investment was linked to higher levels of all four dimensions of human capital. In addition, each individual dimension of human capital, except the quantity of it, was found to positively predict firm performance outcomes.

From Benchmarking View to distinguish the Competition Strategy of Taiwan Steel IndustryChin, Wei 29 July 2006 (has links)
Steel industry has a great connection with the strategic superiority of a nation, and is so called ¡§the foundation of industry¡¨. Generally speaking, the development of steel industry makes progress with economy and society of a country at the same time. Both developed and developing country, positively constructed their own steel industry to meet their demand.
From 2001, there was a insufficient gap of steel supply existed in the world due to strong demand of Mainland China and consequently made world steel price rise sharply and hit historical high time after time. But the capacity of steel production also followed fast in Mainland China, and finally the central bureau of P.R.C. execute macro-adjustment plan in order to cooling down overheated economy. In 2005 first quarter the steel products oversupply eventually, and the price reverse V-TYPE down.
Focus on the enormous chance, the leader steel company of Japan and South Korea entered Mainland China steel industry by strategic alliance with Mainland¡¦s steel companies. Formosa Plastics in Taiwan also schemed to establish an integrated steel mill. The steel market varied so fast and was hard to prospect, Taiwan¡¦s largest steel company -China Steel Corp. operated in such complicated environment, should find a new position to keep its advantageous competition status and do some contribution to its country.

A Multilevel Analysis of Innovation Behavior and Innovation Performance: Perspective of Resource Base TheoryChen, Shu-Ling 31 August 2006 (has links)
Previous work on innovation performance has focused on either organization or individual-level analysis. The current study is the first that we are aware of in which multilevel theory and method were applied to innovation behavior and innovation performance. This multilevel study of 100 managers, 512 R&D teams of employees from 38 R&D companies demonstrated that both individual-and team-level factors were significantly associated with innovation behavior: Balanced psychological contract fulfillment explained within-team variance, and innovation climate explained between-team variance. Further, employee innovation behavior aggregated to the team level explained between-team variance in innovation performance.
This paper also explores the impact of the RBV on the theoretical and empirical development of SHRM and innovation climate. This study is to introduce Intellectual capital as a mediating construct between knowledge human resource management (KHRM) systems and knowledge create. This study provides consistent support for the notion that KHRM systems are fundamental in the development of intellectual capital. This study also found intellectual capital to be associated with increased knowledge creation and innovation performance. With regard to intellectual capital¡¦s mediating role in the HR-performance linkage, this study provides both managers and academics with a more fine-grained analysis of how to target HR investments that build intellectual capital, which, in turn, drive team innovation performance. The results contribute to knowledge on the resource-based view of the firm and the importance of multilevel theory.

The Typology of Intra-firm Knowledge Transfer: Case Studies on Semiconductor FirmsMao, Chih-Jen 14 June 2007 (has links)
In the knowledge economy era, a firm¡¦s competitive edge increasingly depends on the possession of knowledge and intellectual capital. Knowledge becomes the key resource for firms, and firms must increase the attention they pay to knowledge management. A very important issue regarding intra-firm knowledge transfer is to identify the model and circumstances in which knowledge can effectively be transferred. The objective of this study is to demonstrate the typology of intra-firm knowledge transfer executed by different semiconductor firms.
Multiple case study approach is adopted to identify the pattern of knowledge and technology transfer in this study. In order to analyses knowledge transfer activities, four semiconductor firms were studied with qualitative method. Multiple sources of evidence are gathered, including documents, interviews, and internal reports. Synthesizing the knowledge transfer practices of these firms, this study demonstrates three models for intra-firm knowledge transfer.
These knowledge transfer models have important implications for technology and knowledge management. First, deploying these transfer models, replication strategies can apply to the manufacturing sector, including high-tech firms. Manufacturing firms can transfer manufacturing processes between business units and achieve synergy effects or performance consistency. Second, these transfer models validate the contingency theory since various situations induce different transfer models. Third, from these cases we can understand that external benchmarking may not always be the best way to solve problems and maintain competitive advantage. Resource-based theory maintains that firms can retain competitive edge by efficiently and effectively applying practices developed in-house.

The study and fabrication of liquid crystal alignment using dimenthylsioxaneYang, Lu-hsiang 23 July 2007 (has links)
Vertical alignment liquid crystal display has the advantages of wide view angle, high contrast and good response time. Today vertical alignment liquid crystal display get flourishing development, and Multi-Domain Vertical Alignment (MVA) technology is progressive. In this report we would find an alignment materiel which could be fabricated easily, low cost and good E-O characteristic. The use of dimenthysiloxane (PDMS) in fabrication of microfluidic channels technology in biotechnology has the advantages of characteristics foregoing. In this study PDMS was used as LC vertical alignment materiel. We used the MVA structure and ASV structure to align LC direction because PDMS cannot be rubbed. In experiment we found that PDMS exhibited different surface energies when it was baked in different temperature. The results of measuring the pre-tilt angle in the different surface energy conditions are similar. ASV LC samples were fabricated using PDMS alignment layer. MVA LC cells were made using high viscosity PDMS. We found the characteristic of paper white at CIE chromaticity diagram in the ASV LC sample without any color filter and color correction technology.

Comparative Advantages Of Spinoff Suppliers: A Case Study Of A Turkish Automotive ManufacturerUzunca, Bilgehan 01 June 2009 (has links) (PDF)
Using an evolutionary perspective, this thesis examines the presence of specific genetic features that make spinoff suppliers more advantageous compared to other (non-spinoff) suppliers. The spinoff supplier concept is studied by analyzing the automotive subsidiary of one of the largest industrial and commercial conglomerates in Turkey. The company name is kept confidential.
In this study, the idea that managerial processes and routines of the parent firm will pass on to spinoff suppliers (like the transfer of genes from mother to child), and that due to this genetic ability, spinoff suppliers will possess faster organizational learning processes compared to other external suppliers, is adopted. In addition, it is expected that spinoff suppliers& / #8217 / founders, who are former employees of the parent firm, will access the parent& / #8217 / s resources more easily as a result of their informal relations with the parent company. In this regard, it is considered that spinoff supplier companies will be more advantageous compared to other suppliers which provide products/services to the same parent firm.
Transfer of managerial processes and routines, organizational learning, informal relations and social capital are examined using a multiple case study method. Data collected is analyzed qualitatively.
The results imply that managerial processes and routines genetically pass on from the parent company to suppliers and that spinoff suppliers perform more effective organizational learning. At the same time, the findings also show that informal relations with the parent company do not provide an advantage in terms of access to its resources. However, as a result of the dependence of non-spinoff suppliers to the parent company in sales, it is found that they might develop the advantages that spinoff supplier companies have.

nonePu, Hsiao-Te 25 July 2001 (has links)
For the past years more and more well-managed middle-size enterprises in Taiwan have tried to be more competitive and become multination-base enterprises through diversification. A lot of research indicates that the diversification can result in unique competitive advantages. However it also indicates that the degree of diversification is no more one of the important indexes of business performance.
This study was conducted to investigate how to integrate resources within a diversified enterprise to create the management synergies and channel them back to subsidiaries for more growth. Based on various theories regarding resource-base view, diversification, resource building and resource leverage, this study empirically documented that the resource integration among subsidiaries is positively related to the existence of business groups and their growth within a mature industry.
The results of this study indicate that:
1. Business profits can be generated through resource-integration strategy even during the period of a macro-economic recession.
2. Either related diversification and unrelated diversification could be achieved when enterprises are able to effectively use related techniques and resources.
3. The diversified enterprises can exploit resources to create new management synergy through resource building, resource leverage and resource integration.
4. Whether resource integration can be achieved hinges heavily on the subsidiaries willingness to cooperate.
Key Words: Resource-Based View Theory, Diversification, Resource Leverage, Resource Building, Resource-Integration, And Business Performance
