随着无边界管理时代的来临,研究重点从基于无边界管理的变革转向基于无边界管理的运营.如何在无边界管理模式下实现成长将是普遍关注而亟待解决的问题。资源单位、企业内核是企业在无边界管理模式下的两类主要构件,前者承担具体运营事务但不受管理者管控.后者恰好相反。由此,本文提出企业内核作用于资源单位进而实现企业成长的作用传导机制.并通过对比分析和回归分析信息技术行业的配对企业样本数据证实:企业内核在能力、权力维度的增大均带来内部资源单位规模变小、外部资源单位规模变大.在权力维度的增大还能带来内部资源单位相互关联的减弱.这些变化均有利于企业规模扩大;企业内核在效率维度的减小造成外部资源单位规模变小、相互关联减弱,进而促进企业盈利增加。据此.本文认为基于无边界管理运营的本质在于企业内核发展的无边界.企业内核是企业在实体层面有边界和虚拟层面无边界的前提和保证.并基于企业内核、资源单位视角对企业成长计划制定、实施等问题提出建议。
With the coming of boundaryless management age, related research will focus on boundaryless operation instead of boundaryless reform, and how to achieve growth in boundaryless management model will raise great attentions and should be answered urgently. Resource units and firm's core are two kinds of boundaryless firms' basic components. The former complete concrete work but are not in the control of managers while the latter are just the opposite. This paper points out action transmission mechanism among finns' core, resource units and firms' growth. By comparative analyzing and regression analyzing on sample data of paired information technology firms, it confirms that: expansion of firms' core in the dimensions of competence and power can decrease internal resource units' size and increase the external ones' while expansion in power also can weaken ties among internal resource units. All of these will further increase firms' size. Shrinking of firms' core in the dimensions of efficiency will result in size decreasing of external resource units and tie weakening, all of which will enhance firms' profitability afterwards. By further analysis, this paper promotes that the essence of boundaryless operation lies in boundaryless development of firms' core what provides premise and guarantee for boundary in substantial level and boundaryless in virtual level. It then offers suggestions on formulating and implementing of growth plan from the perspectives of firms' core and resource units.
