中文摘要
本研究在大中華區中國大陸子公司和台灣子公司彼此間競爭的情形不斷增多的系絡下,從子公司間競爭的觀點來研究子公司的生存。
以八十家多國籍企業在台子公司的實證調查探討了兩個研究子架構。第一個子架構探討了子公司間在策略重要性、資源不對稱、價值活動的特性這些策略性定位上的競爭對子公司生存的影響。第二個子架構則探討子公司間在知識流、智慧資本這些知識流定位上的競爭對子公司生存的影響。研究結果顯示這些前因都對子公司的生存有不同的效果。
仔細來說,在第一個子架構裡,策略重要性和無形資源的優勢都有助於焦點子公司的生存;當地回應、有形資源的優勢、價值活動的相似性和移動性則都不利於焦點子公司的生存。而在第二個子架構裡,知識的流入、知識的移轉、特定同儕子公司的吸收能力這些知識流的因素都不利於焦點子公司的生存;而組織資本的應用能力和人力資本的應用能力這些智慧資本的因素則都有助於焦點子公司的生存。
最後,本研究討論了子公司間在這些前因上的競爭對焦點子公司生存的意涵。
Abstract
This study examines the survival of individual subsidiary in an inter-subsidiary perspective within the ever-increasing competitive environment in the Greater China region between Mainland Chinese subsidiaries and Taiwanese subsidiaries.
80 Taiwanese Multinational Enterprises’ (MNEs’) participated in this study and the researcher specifically looked at the two sub-frameworks, data collected were empirically tested. In the first sub-framework, it examines the influences of inter-subsidiary competition for strategic positions on subsidiary survival with respect to its strategic importance, resource asymmetry, and some characteristics of value activities. In the second sub-framework, it examines the influences of competition on knowledge flow positions with respect to knowledge flows and intellectual capital. The results showed that these determinants have different effects on subsidiary survival.
Specifically, in the first sub-framework, the strategic importance and advantages of intangible resources enhances a focal subsidiary’s survival, whereas local responsiveness, advantages on physical resources, similarity and mobility of value activities decreases its survival. On the other hand, in the second sub-framework, determinants of knowledge flows specifically on knowledge inflows, knowledge transfer, and absorption capacity of a specific peer subsidiary decreases its survival rate. Further, determinants on intellectual capital such as application capabilities on organizational capital and human capital are seen as positive factors.
Finally, this study discusses the implications of inter-subsidiary competition for these factors in determining a focal subsidiary’s survival.
