A Message from the IACMR President IACMR 会长致辞

Bridging Theory and Practice by Knowing Both “Why” and“How”

Shuming Zhao, School of Business, Nanjing University

Recently, I visited several companies in China trying to understand how the ongoing financial crisis has impacted companies, their employees and the broader community. As expected, most companies continue to face unprecedented challenges under the uncertainty of the economic situation. CEOs discussed possible scenarios where the crisis might have been avoided and contemplated feasible explanations for their failure to anticipate the problems. Many questioned why no existing theories forecasted this crisis and how companies will survive it. Others expressed concern that theoretical research has had little effect on the life of organizations and wondered if greater utilization of organizational research might have mitigated the impact of the crisis.

理论联系实践:“为什么”和“怎么做”

南京大学商学院 赵曙明


最近,我访问了中国几家企业,试图理解当前的金融危机对企业、员工以及周边社区的影响。不出所料,大多数企业在不确定的经济形势下继续面临着前所未有的挑战。这些企业的CEO们谈到了一些避免危机的途径,也探讨了他们没有预料到此次危机的一些原因。许多CEO质疑为什么没有理论能够预测到此次危机以及企业又应该如何应对?还有一些CEO表达了担忧:理论研究对企业的生存发展没有什么作用,不知道能否更好地利用组织研究知识来减轻此次危机对企业的影响。
Why do practitioners lament the impracticality and irrelevance of most research for the business world while researchers complain that practitioners do not adopt sound management practices based on research findings? Why hasn’t the day-to-day practice of management changed as rapidly as our understanding of the theory of management has accumulated? Why has management research failed to make a significant impact on the world of practice despite the burgeoning volumes of research output in peer-reviewed publications? 为什么在研究者报怨实践者没有采用基于研究结论的有效的管理实践的同时,实践界叹息大多数研究与现实商业世界的不相关和不切实际?为什么日常管理实践未能如所积累的管理理论知识一样迅速改变?尽管在同行评审的出版刊物上有着大量的研究成果,为什么管理研究没有对实践产生深远的影响?
The writings of Peter Drucker offer some insight into the contemporary situation. As Drucker argued in his seminal book, The Practice of Management (1954), “Management is a kind of practice, whose nature is implementing, not just knowing the theory.” Management research needs to integrate both the “why” (theories to develop understanding) and the “how” (theories to guide implementation). The “why” refers to the theoretically-grounded knowledge production processes designed to improve our understanding. The “how” refers to the development of theories focused on problem-solving which engender the transfer, adoption and implementation of that knowledge into management practice. However, it seems that academics have focused on the “why” much more than they have focused on the “how.” While academics tend to value “why” over “how”, practitioners tend to value “how” over “why”. In many cases practitioners do not care “why” but need to know “how”! The ability to effectively integrate management research and practice is critical in today’s environment with both practitioners and researchers playing pivotal roles. 彼得·德鲁克的著作对理解当前的情况提供了一些启示。他在《管理的实践》一书中主张(1954),“管理是一种实践,其本质不在于‘知’,而在于‘行’”。管理研究需要整合“为什么”(有助于理解现象的理论)和“怎么做”(为行动提供指导的理论)。“为什么”指旨在提高我们对事物理解的理论知识的生产过程,而“如何做”则指以解决问题为导向的理论发展,涉及到知识在管理实践中的传播、采纳以及运用。然而,学术界更多地关注于“为什么”而不是“怎么做”。当学术界倾向于认为“为什么”比“怎么做”更具有价值时,实践界则倾向于认为“怎么做”比“为什么”更重要。在许多情况下,实践者并不关心“为什么”,但他们需要知道“怎么做”!在当前环境下有效整合管理研究和管理实践的能力非常关键,实践工作者和研究者都扮演着重要的角色。
In my message in our last IACMR newsletter, I encouraged our Association members to put the economic crisis in the context of our ongoing scholarly activities and to address the problems being unveiled in front of our eyes in the world of business and management practices. Asking the right research question, however, is not enough; it is just the first step in making a contribution to CEOs’ and managers’ effective decision-making practices. In order to further bridge the gap between theory and practice, we should know both “why” and “how.” When trying to frame research questions and interpret results we need to better incorporate and be aware of our research’s implications to practitioners. 在上一期IACMR通讯中,我建议学会成员将经济危机置于持续的学术研究情境中,解决已经呈现在眼前的商业和管理实践问题。然而,提出正确的研究问题还不够,它只是为CEO和管理者们在组织中进行有效决策作出贡献的第一步。为搭建理论和实践之间的桥梁,我们既应该知道“为什么”,也应该知道“如何做”。在形成研究问题和解释研究结论时,我们需要更好的考虑并且理解所从事的研究对实践的启示。
To respond to today’s problems and be better prepared to anticipate problems in the future, I encourage our IACMR members to maintain a critical awareness of today’s management practices and seek experiences grounded in an understanding of both the world of professional practice and the world of academic. Only through effective integration can we learn how to ask pertinent research questions, conduct relevant research projects, and most importantly, solve real world managerial problems. 为了应对当今的问题,也为了更好地为预测明天的问题做好准备,我建议学会成员要不断地了解当今的管理实践,加强累积基于企业界和学术界的经验。只有通过有效的整合,我们才能学会如何提出正确的问题、如何执行研究项目,更重要的是,如何解决现实世界中的管理问题。

Books 书籍
Alas, R. (Ed) (2009). Implementation of Changes in Chinese Organizations: Groping the Way through the Darkness. Oxford: Chandos Publishing Limited. 230 p.

This book is about the management of change in Chinese organizations. There are no commonly accepted theories of
change that have been developed for China or countries in transition. This book is an attempt to bridge
that gap and to provide a model which takes into account the specifics of organizational changes in Chinese organizations. It looks at various aspects of change implementation in Chinese organizations, including the types, the process, the readiness to change, and ethical issues.

Alas, R. (Ed) (2009).中国的组织实施的变革:在黑暗中摸索方向. 牛津:Chandos 有限公司,230页.

这本书是关于中国组织的变革管理。迄今为止,在中国或其它处于转型经济的国家中,还没有被普遍接受的变革理论。这本书试图弥补这一空白,并提供了适合中国组织变革的模型。它从中国组织变革实施的不同方面进行介绍,其中包括类型、过程、变革
的准备以及伦理问题。

Management integrates theory with practice with the objective of helping its readers in developing sound concepts and in applying them in their managerial career. This edition builds on its global focus by incorporating new examples from leading world organizations. It also looks at entrepreneurship in a big way to illustrate that individual and organizational entrepreneurship is a major managerial challenge and opportunity in the 21st century. Examples and cases of entrepreneurial innovation have been integrated throughout the text. As the earlier editions, this edition is also modeled on the systems approach to management and looks beyond North America to bring in examples from the European Union, Asia (including India), and Latin America. 《管理学》理论联系实际,旨在帮助读者掌握坚实的概念,并付诸于其管理生涯之中。此版本将那些新的、反映领先世界级组织的范例融会其中,形成了全球化聚焦特色。此外,书中广泛涉及了创业理念,提出了个人和企业创业精神是贯穿21世纪的主要的管理挑战和机遇的论点。全书运用了大量的企业创业、创新范例和案例。如同先前的版本一样,该第十二版整体框架仍基于管理系统模式,但涉及的内容超越了北美洲区域的界限,引入了欧盟、亚洲(包括印度)以及拉丁美洲企业的范例。

An old saying suggests that those who have been in China for a day, write a book; those who stayed for a month, write a page, while those who stayed longer find it all too complex to explain at all. Due to this complexity, no single book can provide the definitive guide to China. The good news, however, is that some 'Old China Hands' have defied conventional wisdom and written books reflecting their personal experiences and views. 老话说谁在中国呆一天就可以写本书;在中国呆一个月则可以写一页纸,而那些呆得更长时间的人则会觉得它太复杂,根本没法解释。正是因为这种复杂性,所以没有一本书能够给出有关中国的权威介绍。然而,好消息是一些“老中国通”已经对传统观点产生了置疑,并写了书来反映他们个人的经历和观点。
When I teach about emerging economies, and China in particular, I try to encourage my course participants to read broadly about the country and to aim for a broader understanding than what an economics or business classroom can achieve. In my view, China may best be approached like the infamous five blind men approached the elephant - everyone explores a part and together they can obtain a reasonable image. 当我教有关发展经济学, 尤其是和中国有关的内容时,我一直鼓励上我课程的学生广泛阅读有关这个国家的图书,目的是他们能够有更广泛的理解,这不是经济学或者商学课堂所能够提供的。在我看来,中国最接近5个盲人摸象——每个人只是发现了其中的一部分,合在一起则形成了一幅合理的画面。
Thus, I compiled a list of personal favorites that I would like to share with IACMR members.
因而,我总结了一系列个人偏好,与IACMR的会员分享。
(Auto-)Biographies: Western Perspectives 自传:西方视角
Personal experiences are often the richest and most practical avenue to building understanding, provided they are written with a healthy degree of humility and self-reflection. China is changing so rapidly that some may dismiss the relevance of past decades. Yet, the past informs peoples' view of the world and their perception of the present. Older autobiographic stories thus complement recent ones. 倘若作者能够以一种谦卑和自我反省的态度来进行写作,那么作者的个人经验通常是一种建立知识最丰富和最切合实际的途径。中国的变化之快使得一些人忽略了对过去几十年的变化给出并不中肯的评价。然而,过去意味着人们对于世界的观点和他们感知到的事物是存在的。因而老一些的自传故事则弥补了现有对过去事物了解的不足。

(Auto-)Biographies: Chinese Perspectives 自传:中国视角
Chinese perspective biographies and autobiographies provide not only insights into the practicalities of life in China in the recent past, but also into the Chinese way of thinking. Often, I find the most interesting autobiographies written by Chinese who eventually settled outside China and thus wrote in a way that makes their experiences accessible to Western readers. 中国人记录他们自己的生活,不仅关注近些年来在中国的实用性,还采用中国式的思考方式。通常,我感到最有意思的传记故事是由最终定居国外的中国人写的,因而用一种西方读者所接受的方式来介绍和记录他们的经历。

Fiction 小说
I like to read novels and short stories to complement more factual sources of information because they can convey much better the atmosphere and the feelings, anxieties and beliefs of individuals than an academic study could. Some of these books assist in understanding how Chinese people might think and feel about their life. 我喜欢阅读小说和短篇故事作为获取信息的补充渠道 ,因为它们能够比研究性书籍更好地传达个人所处地环境以及他们的感受、渴望和信仰。一些这些方面的图书帮助我理解中国人对他们的生活的想法和感受。

The China Venture Capitalist Confidence Index
Mark Cannice, University of San Francisco
中国风险投资家的信心指数
Mark Cannice, 旧金山大学
Confidence among key economic groups (e.g. consumers and CEOS) has been a closely tracked metric for many years, as confidence is thought to be an important leading indicator of business activity. However, confidence among professional investors in high-growth ventures has not before been systematically tracked. The quarterly China Venture Capitalist Confidence IndexTM (Bloomberg ticker symbol: CVCCI) is based on an on-going survey of Mainland China and Hong Kong venture capitalists. The China VC Index measures and reports the opinions of China based professional venture capitalists in their estimation of the highgrowth venture entrepreneurial environment in China over the next 6 - 18 months. In publishing a recurring confidence index of China-based venture capital investors, my co-author, Ling Ding and I, intend to utilize the local knowledge and insight of our respondents to provide an essential perspective and an on-going leading indicator of the dynamic Chinese entrepreneurial business environment. 这些年来有关经济活动中关键群体的信心(比如:消费者,CEOs)已经成为被密切关注的对象,因为信心被认为是商业活动的一个重要指标。然而从事高增长风险的专业投资者的信心情况却从来没有被系统地研究过。季刊《中国风险资本信心指标》(Bloomberg ticker symbol: CVCCI)是依据中国大陆和香港的风险投资的现状 调研所完成的。中国的风险投资指标度量和报告了以中国为基础的专业风险投资家关于中国在未来6-18个月内高增长风险的创业环境的观点。出版一本连续的以中国为基础的风险资本投资家的信心指标的书,我的合作者Ling Ding和我都想要运用我们应答者的本土知识和见解,来提供重要的视角和动态的测量中国现阶段创业环境的评价指标。
The China Venture Capitalist Confidence Index for the first quarter of 2009, based on a March/April 2009 survey of 19 Mainland China and Hong Kong venture capitalists, registered 3.45 on a 5-point scale (with 5 indicating high confidence and 1 indicating low confidence). This quarter's reading is essentially unchanged from last quarter's measure of 3.43. The leveling off of confidence over the last two quarters appears based on a sentiment that the global economic crisis may have bottomed out and China, in particular, is well positioned to benefit from a likely rebound in entrepreneurial activity that is to a degree stimulated by government intervention. Please see Graph 1 for trend data. 2009年第一季度的中国风险资本家信心指数是建立在2009年3/4月对中国大陆和香港地区的19个风险资本家调研的基础之上,5级量表的结果为3.45 (5代表高信心,1代表低信心)。比较上一季度的测量结果3.43,这一季度的指标没有本质上的变化。这一结果低于前2个季度信心指标的水平主要原因是由于全球的经济危机带来的负面情绪的影响已经降到最低点,尤其是中国的创业活动很可能受到政府干预的刺激而反弹。请查看图1中的趋势数据。
China’s governmental intervention enhanced confidence among a number of responding venture capitalists. Harold Chan of SEAVI Advent Private Equity stated “government policy support and regulatory relaxation should offset the difficult macro environment.” Max Burger-Calderon of Apax Partners Ltd indicated “China’s stimulus program seems to be working.” 中国的政府干预提高了风险投资家的信心。 SEAVI风险投资公司的Harold Chan 说:“政府的政策支持和法规的宽松将会抵消宏观环境的困难”,Apax Partners Ltd的Max Burger-Calderon 指出:“中国的经济刺激计划看起来起作用了。”
Other respondents are finding opportunities for some firms to prosper in the current difficult economic climate. Johannes Schoeter of Victoria Capital Limited indicated “quality companies are taking the market share of less competitive peers which are failing in numbers during the present lower growth period. Thus, there are many highgrowth companies available at attractive valuations in the present environment.” 其它的应答者表示正在为一些公司从现阶段困难的经济环境中寻找复兴的机会。维多利亚风险有限公司的Johannes Schoeter 指出:“在现在的低增长阶段,有品质的公司正在从竞争力弱的竞争对手那里获取市场份额。因而,在现有环境下,有很多高增长的公司是很吸引人的。”

New Academic Program

新学术项目
Combining the best of both worlds:
European business school announces new Masters in Chinese Business and Economy
世界的强强联手—欧洲商业学院
宣布开展中国商业与经济的新管理活动
The Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University, and the Chinese Department of Leiden University have announced a new Masters program in Chinese Economy and Business. The program will start in September 2009 and will take one year to complete. 伊拉兹马斯大学的鹿特丹管理学院和莱顿大学的中国系已经宣布了一个新的“中国经济和商业”管理项目。这个项目将在2009年9月启动,预计历时一年。
The first of its kind, the program is designed to meet the demand of businesses looking for graduates who combine sound management skills with a thorough knowledge of the Chinese economy, business sector and culture. The result of a unique collaboration, the program is taught by some of Europe’s leading faculty in the field and combines the outstanding expertise of both institutions. Lectures will be held in both Leiden and Rotterdam. 这一项目的首要目的是为了满足企业对研究生的需求,这些研究生应兼有过硬的管理技能并对中国经济、商业部门和文化有全面的了解。这一项目中的教学内容将由该领域内的欧洲著名的老师以及两个学院的杰出专家来讲授,莱顿和鹿特丹都会有讲座。
Professor Barbara Krug, Academic Director of the Chinese Economy in Business Master program, said: “The Masters in Chinese Economy and Business is the pre-eminent program for students interested in gaining specialised knowledge and skills in this rewarding business area. China is the engine of international economic wealth creation. Currently, China is directly responsible for 20 – 25% of world economic growth. Due to the global recession, this share is projected to grow as high as 30%. As a result, Chinese companies are becoming more selective in their choice of partner; fueled by their wealth, they engage in an international ‘shopping spree,’ resulting in an increased presence within Europe. Clearly, China will reward those who possess valuable country-specific knowledge as well as sound business knowledge, as offered in our program.” Barbara Krug 教授,作为中国经济商业管理项目的负责人,她说:“中国经济和商业的管理是针对想要在商业领域内获取专业知识和技能的学生而专门设立的卓越的项目”。中国作为国际经济财富创造的发动机,如今,其经济增长占世界经济总额的20-25%。由于全球的不景气,这一份额预计将增长到30%。因此,中国企业在选择其合作方时将更具选择性;为了增加他们的财富,他们加入到了国际的“购物狂潮”中,在欧洲尤其明显。中国将会嘉奖那些我们项目中所培养的,拥有特定国家知识和全面商业知识的人。”
Also part of this initiative is a partnership program to build a network of companies, professors, students and alumni. Its objective is to facilitate internships for students and the exchange of information amongst all stakeholders.

特刊“会计变革与问题”
征稿
Recent global economic growth has caused tremendous pressure in the demand for accounting and finance professionals in all areas. Reacting to this, accounting and finance professions have undergone tremendous change to overcome issues the that have haunted the profession for years. 当前的全球经济增长引发了对各个领域中会计和金融专业人才的极大需求。对此,会计和金融职业正在发生巨大的变化以适应经济发展的需要。
Despite the rapid development in these areas, academics and practitioners interested working in these fields are still left with very limited forums to exchange ideas specifically related to the Asia business context. The Journal of Asia Business Studies (JABS), a refereed journal published by the University of San Francisco, is designed to fill this gap. Its primary objective is to stimulate research in all issues related to Asian business. In 2010, the JABS will publish a special issue on “Accounting Changes and Issues.” Areas of interests include accounting education, auditing, accounting theory and practice, accounting information and systems, accounting systems management, behavioural accounting, cost/managerial accounting, international accounting, government and non-profit accounting, international tax accounting, e-commerce in accounting and finance as well as public responsibility and ethics. Also discussed will be related problems of significance to both private and public enterprises, with special emphasis placed on the interaction between these areas in the Asian business context. 尽管这些领域发展迅速,但是相关领域的学者和实践工作者却很少有机会来讨论和交换对亚洲经济的观点。《亚洲商业研究》作为一本由美国旧金山大学出版的专业期刊,用以填补这一空白。本杂志的主要目的是激发有关亚洲商业的学术研究。在2010年,JABS将出版一期主题为“会计变革与问题”的专刊。相关领域包括会计教育、审计、会计理论和实践、会计信息和系统、会计系统管理、行为会计、成本/管理会计、国际会计、政府和非营利组织会计、国际税收会计、会计和金融中的电子商务、社会责任和伦理问题以及有关对公共部门和私人企业在亚洲经济环境中商业活动有显著影响的其他议题。
This special issue is edited by the Distinguished Professor Lee J. Yao of Loyola University New Orleans in the USA. Accounting, finance and international business researchers as well as professionals in allied areas are invited to submit research papers for the JABS. All papers are subject to a double-blind referee process, reviewed by at least two ad hoc reviewers. Email a copy of your article to:

中国经济-特刊

主题:通过社会网络和代理模型的视角来
理解中国经济

特刊特邀编辑
Nicholas S. P. Tay,旧金山大学

投稿截止日期:2010年5月1日
The bimonthly journal, Chinese Economy, published by M.S. Sharpe Publishing Co., offers an objective and analytical account of the economic issues facing China. The Journal contains two important features - unabridged translations of important articles from Chinese sources (primarily influential scholarly journals and publications in China) and original, unpublished works written by scholars all over the world. The refereed Journal provides readers with useful information on China’s economic development for conducting future research and for understanding important policy implications. 《中国经济》(双月刊),由M.S. Sharpe 出版公司发行,提供了有关中国经济问题的客观的和分析性的观点。期刊主要有两个特色——来自中国重要文章的完整翻译(主要是中国有影响力的学术期刊和出版物)和全世界范围内学者原创的、没有发表过的文章。本期刊提供给读者有关中国经济发展有用的信息,以引导未来研究和理解重要的政策影响。
The Chinese Economy will be running a special issue that focuses on applying social networks and agent-based models to shed light on all aspects of the Chinese economy. 《中国经济》将出版一期关于应用社会网络和代理模型的特刊以揭示中国经济的各个方面。
The majority of the publications in business journals still rely on traditional methodologies in their investigations. Such methodologies, which often fail to model the multilateral and dynamically evolving interactions among the agents in the economy and the co-evolution between the agents and the environment, are ill suited for modeling or understanding the complex, evolving and dynamic nature of real world economies and markets. The aim of this special issue is to bring to the attention of business scholars cutting-edge research tools from social networks and agent-based modeling research. In doing so we hope to uncover new relationships and gain a better appreciation and understanding of various aspects of the Chinese economy. This special issue also serves to provide an interdisciplinary venue for collaboration and exchange of ideas between business scholars and researchers in social networks and agent-based modeling. 大部分商业期刊出版物仍旧依赖于研究中的传统方法。这些方法通常没有能够在经济中代理人之间构建多边的和动态演进交互的模型,以及代理人和环境之间共同演进的模型,这些方法不适合用于建模和理解复杂的、演进的、现实世界经济和市场的动态性。这期特刊的目的是为了使得商业学者意识到社会网络和代理模型研究中的先进研究工具,我们希望通过这来揭示新关系并获得对中国经济不同方面更好的的理解和鉴赏。这期特刊也为商业学者和社会网络、代理模型的研究者之间的合作和交流提供了一个跨学科的平台。
PAPER SUBMISSION:
