项目摘要

We set up a database of strategic and organization changes for Japanese retailers, financial institutions, and automobile companies during the period of 1980 and 1997. The basic data for this database consists of the universe of accounts published in newspapers, magazines, and annual reports. Fine-grained text analysis was used to uncover the key characteristics of the changes actions, auch as type of change, location of change, location of change within the organization, outcomes, and espoused goals and rationales. In addition, measures of strategy type, strategic intent and organizational structure were capture. Using this database, we investigated the following topics :(1) the impact of OEO succession on strategic and organizational changes in Japanese companies : Overall OEO succession was not associated with radical strategic and organization changes. The governance structure moderates organization changes (independent of OEO succession) in particular when the firm was affiliated with a main bank and the firm was experiencing severe financial pressure. (2) the consequences of IT for organization design in US and Japanese retailers : In US, IT did predict structure when other variables were controlled, and is strongly associated with increased centralization. In Japan, IT modestly predicts structure in the absence of controls, and is associated with increased decentralization. (3) the framework for understanding changes in marketing practices by European, Japanese and U.S. companies in Sotheast Asia after Economic Crisis : We classified changes in marketing practices into two types : exploration and exploration. We found exploitation more frequently than exploration. Also, the nation state form of capitalism affected the type and direction of changes.

我们在1980年和1997年期间为日本零售商，金融机构和汽车公司建立了一个战略和组织变更数据库。该数据库的基本数据由报纸，杂志和年度报告发表在报纸，杂志和年度报告中。细颗粒的文本分析用于揭示变更动作的关键特征，例如变化的类型，变化的位置，组织内部的变化位置，成果以及拥护的目标和理由。此外，捕获了战略类型，战略意图和组织结构的度量。使用此数据库，我们研究了以下主题：（1）OEO继承对日本公司战略和组织变化的影响：OEO的总体演替与激进的战略和组织变化无关。治理结构调节组织的变化（独立于OEO继承），尤其是当公司与主要银行有联系并且该公司遭受巨大的财务压力时。（2）IT对美国和日本零售商的组织设计的后果：在美国，它确实预测了何时控制其他变量，并且与集中化的增加密切相关。在日本，它适度地预测了在缺乏对照的情况下结构，并且与分散化的增加有关。（3）在经济危机之后，欧洲，日本和美国公司在苏通岛的营销实践变化的框架：我们将营销实践的变化分为两种类型：探索和探索。我们发现剥削比探索更频繁。同样，民族国家的资本主义形式影响了变化的类型和方向。
