中国企业/组织管理理论创新研究

The field of management has gone through tremendous growth over the past 50 years. Grown out of the Anglo-American theoretical and empirical tradition of the 1950s-90s, a broad range of paradigms and theories (resource dependence, population ecology, transaction cost, agency theory, industrial organization, resource based view, and so on) have developed and matured through "normal science." More recently some of these paradigms have also been applied to and tested in China and many other countries. .Inspired by the phenomenal economic growth of China, we believe it is time to more deeply tap the diversity of theoretical development by dialectically and diagnostically looking at unique theoretic perspectives deriving from Chinese business practices and wisdom, thus developing a theoretically richer field of management that better helps understand and manage a global range of phenomena. Chinese firms are increasingly contesting market leaders from developed countries, creating new benchmarks for best practices, and even creating entirely new business models. .This project humbly hopes to help fortify the China power in the international mainstream community of management and organization theories by developing, publishing, and disseminating novel theoretic perspectives arising from unique but effective business practices and managerial philosophies employed by Chinese businesses and organizations. The project aims to advance Chinese management research by presenting much-needed new theories that could also have repercussions to firms in other emerging and developing countries. We also hope to offer Chinese executives synthesized theoretic wisdom that may help guide their future policies and strategies..Naturally, Chinese management theories are multplex, multi-facted, and evolutionary. In this project we intend to emphatically develop what we think the four most important theoretic perspectives that peculiarly describe China-unique management theories that are largely novel to the maintream management theory community: (1) Ambi-path based view; (2) Composition based view; (3) Dynamism based view; and (4) Internationalization based view. Under each view, there are several specific lenses we plan to explore (e.g., co-evolution, co-competence and iminovation under ambi-path view; dynamic competition, transformational upgrading and dynamic capability under dynamism based biew) to tackle the complexity and multiplxity of Chinese management theories. In developing these lenses, we will explore the unique role of China's institutional and competitive environments in shaping the development of the aforesaid perspectives, and underpin our theoretical development from a multitude of backgound foundations, including institutional, economic, strategic, sociological, cultural, behavorial, and entrepreneurial.

以西方为主流的企业管理研究在近50年来取得了长足的进步，通过大量的理论推演与实证检验，以北美学者为代表的理论界构建了完整清晰的管理理论框架体系。然而，随着以中国为代表的新兴市场国家企业开始与西方的行业领袖同台竞技，他们在竞争的过程中创造了许多优秀的管理实践，甚至建立了全新的商业模式和行业标杆。在此过程中，西方的主流理论遇到了新的挑战。一方面新兴市场所具有的制度基础、经济基础、社会文化基础、市场基础、资源基础及行为基础与西方国家有很大不同，另一方面，新兴市场企业所面对的竞争环境与西方企业亦有所不同。为此，本研究拟从双元性视角、复合式视角、动态的视角和国际化视角四个不同的角度，结合中国的管理实践和商业智慧，对当前前沿的管理理论热点进行探究，试图建立一个基于中国管理实践的多视角中国管理理论体系，特别是中国企业竞争力与成长理论，提升我国管理学理论的创新能力。

在二十余年管理理论研究的基础上，本课题组探索以中国企业成长为目的， 以战略管理为视角的中国企业管理中的 “合”理论体系。“合”理论体系 – 复合, 联合, 相合，结合 – 为核心培育中国管理学组织学体系中的“合”理论。.中国特色的“合”理论体系，阐明了仅有普通资源的中国企业独特的发展路径——通过创造性地利用“合”（包括复合、联合、结合、相合）建立其竞争优势或弥补其劣势，创造出市场快速响应、高性价比、复合式服务等独特的优势。“合”理论关注资源和能力的独特组合、开放利用和共生发展，其核心思想是以合补短、以合促长、合则共生。“合”理论不仅考虑了中国独特的社会与文化、制度与市场等外部因素，也结合了中国企业特有的组织基础和资源特征，不仅阐述了其理论内涵和目标及手段，也展示了其哲学基础和理论逻辑与范式。.“合”理论已在国际、国内主要研究期刊发表，并广泛引起关注、转载和评述，被认为是中国特色管理理论的重大突破，为推动中国特色管理理论走向国际主流奠定了重要基础。该理论融合归纳了中国企业独特的优秀实践，又为更大范围的中国企业未来发展指出了前进方向。.本课题组依原定计划完成了四个重点专题研究，包括双元视角的管理理论研究；复合视角的管理理论研究；国际化视角的管理理论研究和动态性（如共演）视角的管理理论研究。同时本课题组也对中国管理学理论创新研究的方法与方向进行探索，提出包括困惑驱动式、哲学引导式、分类式、框架式、比较式、隐喻式等在内的理论构建范式。.最后，本课题组试图给中国管理学理论创新研究的一些建议方向：如大双元理论、制度复杂观、共演理论、中国式追赶理论、新集体主义观、主心骨领导观等。
