Bsidging the Eclectic Paradigm and Integration - Responsiveness Framework of Human Resource Srauegy : An Empirical Study on Overseas Subsidiaries of Taiwan''s Information Industry / 臺灣資訊業國際化經營與海外分支機構人力資源策略之實證分析

碩士 / 國立交通大學 / 科技管理研究所 / 84 / Ever since 1980s, personal computers (PC) and semiconductors
industries aretwo distinguished hi-tech industries emerged in
Taiwan. As 1990s, Taiwanis in the third place of the global
suppliers for PC and associated products.This study conducted
herein is to analyze the strategic management of humanresource
for the overseas subsidiaries of Taiwan''s PC hardware producers.
Theoretical frameworks of Eclectic Paradigm and the Integration-
Responsivenessmodel are employed and performance is evaluated
for different types of humanferent types of human resource
strategy. In order to compare the contributionof strategic
variables and to group the patterns of
internationalorganizations, we apply the quantitative methods of
multiple regression andmultivariate statistics. It reveals that
the firm size, theinternationalisation experience and the
product innovation of a parentcompany, as well as the local
activities, markets, risks, resources and thereliance of
headquarters of the overseas subsidiaries, havesignificant
influences on the human resource strategy. On the basis of
twostrategic dimensions of consistency with parent company and
the localizationrequirements, this research defines four
distinct strategic categories forhuman resource management.
Although Taiwanese information enterprises areincreasingly
stepping out for global expansion, the ning stage of
international business development. Ad hocand more receptive,
instead of autonomous and active, modes of humanresource
strategies are dominant in the corporate decisions for
theirinternational affiliations. Performance assessment
indicates that the activestyle excels other strategic
alternatives in terms of the overall and humanresource
evaluation. It seems that most Taiwanese firms are cautious
aboutand accumulating hands-on experiences of their
international investment atcurrent stage. The external
uncertainty of foreign environment leads to asituation of trial
and error for the industrial globalization. The
uncertaincircumstance also has a link with the governance
patterns of internationalsubsidiaries. Globalization of Taiwan''s
personal computer industry, as awhole, is on the way from
passive to more active strategy of human resource.
