Pub Date : 2009-02-23 DOI: 10.1108/14013380910948081
M. Edenius, A. Styhre
Purpose – The management and the control of knowledge‐intensive organizations have recently been subject to empirical studies. Much of the literature suggests that management control, defined and operationalized in a variety of ways and examined within different traditions, in essence affects co‐workers negatively. On the other hand, proponents of management control practices such as consultants stress the positive and productive aspects of such practices. Contrary to these skeptical and overtly rosy views, this paper seeks to contribute with a different perspective on the uses of total quality management (TQM) in organizations.Design/methodology/approach – This paper presents a study of the Swedish insurance company Agria employing a number of TQM methods and tools to monitor, control and evaluate the performance of the activities from a social embeddedness perspective.Findings – Seeking to encourage accounts within such an affirmative view, the paper calls for more research into the knowledge workers' p...
目的-知识密集型组织的管理和控制最近成为实证研究的主题。许多文献表明,管理控制,以各种方式定义和操作,并在不同的传统中进行检验,本质上对同事产生负面影响。另一方面,管理控制实践的支持者,如顾问,强调这种实践的积极和富有成效的方面。与这些怀疑和公开的乐观观点相反,本文试图从不同的角度对组织中全面质量管理(TQM)的使用做出贡献。设计/方法论/方法-本文介绍了瑞典保险公司Agria的一项研究,该研究采用了许多TQM方法和工具,从社会嵌入性的角度来监测、控制和评估活动的绩效。研究发现——为了鼓励在这种肯定观点下的账户,本文呼吁对知识型员工的行为进行更多的研究。

Pub Date : 2009-02-23 DOI: 10.1108/14013380910948063
Philip Law, Jen-Wei Hung
Purpose – Entrepreneurship plays a key role in society and is important for economic growth. Despite prior studies of entrepreneurial behavior, no research has been conducted to examine the influence of monetary and personality factors on the entrepreneurial start up of Certified Public Accountant (CPA) firms in Hong Kong. The purpose of this paper is to investigate into factors influencing Hong Kong CPAs in becoming entrepreneurial public practitioners.Design/methodology/approach – Data are collected through a questionnaire survey and analyzed by binomial logistic regression. A total of 212 CPAs of Chinese origin are randomly selected in Hong Kong. Social capital theory derived from the sociology literature is employed for analysing the findings.Findings – Results indicate that “profit motivation” and “education level” variables have no significant influence on the entrepreneurial start up, and contradict findings in prior literature. Results further reveal that “social networking” and “internal locus of...
目的-企业家精神在社会中起着关键作用,对经济增长至关重要。尽管已有关于创业行为的研究,但尚未有研究考察金钱和人格因素对香港注册会计师事务所创业的影响。本文的目的是探讨影响香港注册会计师成为创业型公共从业者的因素。设计/方法/方法-通过问卷调查收集数据,并通过二项逻辑回归分析。在香港随机抽取了212名华裔注册会计师。运用社会学文献中的社会资本理论对研究结果进行分析。研究结果-研究结果表明,“利润动机”和“受教育程度”变量对创业创业没有显著影响,与以往文献的研究结果相矛盾。结果进一步揭示了“社交网络”和“内在轨迹”。

When capital market actors reduce the complexity of corporate personnel and work environment information 当资本市场参与者减少了公司人员和工作环境信息的复杂性
Pub Date : 2009-02-23 DOI: 10.1108/14013380910948072
R. Almqvist, J. Henningsson
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to explore how capital market actors deal with information on personnel and work environment.Design/methodology/approach – The paper uses a qualitative research approach involving interviews with 14 fund managers and two bankers in Stockholm. The empirical analysis is influenced by a combination of system and network theories where social networks are imposed on capital market actors, when they observe corporate information vis‐a‐vis personnel and work environment.Findings – Capital market actors are influenced by social forces when they reduce the complexity of information on corporate personnel and work environment. Four themes emerged in this study concerning emergent paradoxes which results from such a reduction. First, capital market actors seem to regard personnel in a variety of ways: sometimes as a resource, and sometimes as a risk or a non‐flexible cost problem. Second, they tend to reduce the complexity of information by depending on having the right manage...
目的-本文的目的是探讨资本市场参与者如何处理有关人员和工作环境的信息。设计/方法/方法-本文采用定性研究方法,采访了斯德哥尔摩的14位基金经理和两名银行家。实证分析受到系统和网络理论结合的影响,其中社会网络被强加于资本市场参与者,当他们观察公司信息时,面对人员和工作环境。研究发现-资本市场参与者在降低公司人员和工作环境信息的复杂性时受到社会力量的影响。在这项研究中出现了四个主题,涉及从这种减少中产生的新兴悖论。首先,资本市场参与者似乎以各种方式看待人员:有时是一种资源,有时是一种风险或非灵活的成本问题。其次,他们倾向于通过拥有正确的管理者来降低信息的复杂性。

Pub Date : 2008-09-26 DOI: 10.1108/14013380810919868
Abigail Marks, T. Huzzard
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the notion of attractive workplaces in the specific context of creative professional employment.Design/methodology/approach – Based on observations and interview data at knowledge‐based firms in the UK, the paper looks at the extent to which employees are “rewarded” with the offer of creative work and the degree to which this offer really involves greater benefits for employees in terms of professional prestige and the confirmation of their identities as professional workers in the creative industries.Findings – The paper finds that creative needs remain important components of the attractive workplace, but increasingly also of importance are the extrinsic rewards of an acceptable work‐life balance as the age profile of the technology worker changes and technology stagnates.Research limitations/implications – This research focused on one group of workers within one specific country.

J. V. D. Zahn, Harjinder Singh, Inderpal Singh
Purpose – The primary objective of this paper is to examine the association between the seven human‐resource features (spanning three major themes: qualifications and credentials; business and initial public offering (IPO) launch experience; and diversity) of independent audit committee members and the level of underpricing.Design/methodology/approach – A sample of 410 Singapore IPOs listing on the stock exchange of Singapore from January 1, 1997 to December 31, 2006 was used.Findings – Empirical results overall suggest no overwhelming association between the human‐resource features of IPO audit committees and underpricing. Rather, the findings suggest only some specific human‐resource features (e.g. presence of an independent audit committee member with accounting qualifications and credentials) are of significance. Others (e.g. gender diversity of independent audit committee members) have little or no association. Also, results do not suggest a major category of human‐resource features (i.e. qualificati...
目的-本文的主要目的是研究七个人力资源特征之间的关联(跨越三个主题:资格和证书;业务和首次公开募股(IPO)启动经验;以及独立审计委员会成员的多样性和定价过低的程度。设计/方法/方法-样本为1997年1月1日至2006年12月31日在新加坡证券交易所上市的410家新加坡公司。研究结果-实证结果总体上表明,IPO审计委员会的人力资源特征与定价过低之间没有压倒性的关联。相反,研究结果表明,只有一些特定的人力资源特征(例如,具有会计资格和证书的独立审计委员会成员的存在)是重要的。其他(如独立审计委员会成员的性别多样性)则很少或根本没有关联。此外,结果并没有表明人力资源特征的主要类别(即资格……

P. N. Bukh, I. Jensen
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to show how three similar utility companies have adopted intellectual capital statements as a management technology, incorporated it into existing practices, developed and adapted it.Design/methodology/approach – The paper is based on ethnomethodology using accounts where the data collection was mainly through semi‐structured interviews with practitioners. The analysis is based on the actor network theory where the idea of an intellectual capital statement is enacted and materialised.Findings – The paper finds that the local context and the local actors have a decisive influence on the network creation taking place around the intellectual capital statement as an object, where the objects create room for different actions. It is concluded that the intellectual capital statement in the companies functions as a conceptual framework where existing initiatives can be integrated into a whole.

Assessing the reporting of stakeholder reciprocity in the Australian banking industry 评估澳大利亚银行业的利益相关者互惠报告
Pub Date : 2008-06-27 DOI: 10.1108/14013380810889538
Suresh Cuganesan, H. Khan
Purpose – Companies are increasing the amount of their voluntary disclosures to inform stakeholders about organisational performance. Despite criticism that these are simply “public relations” exercises, there has been little formal evaluation of stakeholder reporting, especially in Australia. In addition, the important aspect of stakeholder reciprocity, where not only stakeholder satisfaction but also their contribution to the organisation is evaluated and reported, has not been examined. This study aims to examine both of these issues.Design/methodology/approach – The study was conducted using the non‐financial performance indicators of Australia's top five banks, as available in both annual reports and web sites, to examine the nature of stakeholder reporting and the extent to which stakeholder reciprocity is disclosed.Findings – The results of the study indicate that there is neither consistency in the reporting of key performance indicators, nor is there consistency in reporting across both stakehold...
目的-公司正在增加其自愿披露的数量,以告知利益相关者有关组织绩效。尽管有人批评这些只是“公关”活动,但对利益相关者报告的正式评估很少,尤其是在澳大利亚。此外,利益相关者互惠的重要方面,不仅是利益相关者满意度,而且他们对组织的贡献也被评估和报告,还没有得到检验。本研究旨在研究这两个问题。设计/方法/方法-本研究采用澳大利亚五大银行的非财务绩效指标(年报和网站上均有)进行,以检查利益相关者报告的性质以及利益相关者互惠的披露程度。研究结果-研究结果表明,关键绩效指标的报告既不一致,在利益相关者之间的报告也不一致……

Valuing human resources: perceptions and practices in UK organisations 评估人力资源:英国组织的观念和实践
Pub Date : 2008-06-27 DOI: 10.1108/14013380810889547
Shraddha Verma, P. Dewe
Despite Government and academic interest in valuing human resources, there has been relatively little progress in reflecting the value of human resources in UK organisations. This research uses a survey questionnaire to identify perceptions and practices in the area of valuing human resources in three types of UK organizations; traditional companies, knowledge intensive companies and local authorities. The survey focuses on the importance of valuing human resources, current measurement practices, key barriers to the valuation of human resources and the progress expected in this field over five years in UK organisations. Although the majority of respondents identified that the measurement/valuation of human resources was important to their organization, only little or moderate progress in recognizing the worth of human resources in financial statements was expected. The main reasons for this were identified to be lack of understanding and support of the area by others in the organization, particularly senior management, lack of resources, uncertainty as to what information should be reported and lack of precision and reliability in current human resource measures. The research identified that there is more interest in the area from human resource professionals than accounting professionals and that valuation of human resources should be included in internal reports rather than reported externally. More research is now needed, both on conceptual models for valuing human resources within organizations and empirical research focusing on issues such as gaining commitment to valuing of human resources by senior management, the development of systems of valuing human resources, how systems to value employees, when developed, are implemented in organisations and the consequences, both intended and unintended of how the systems operate in practice.
尽管政府和学术界对重视人力资源感兴趣,但在反映英国组织中人力资源的价值方面进展相对较小。本研究使用调查问卷,以确定在重视人力资源领域的看法和做法在三种类型的英国组织;传统企业、知识密集型企业和地方政府。该调查侧重于评估人力资源的重要性,当前的测量实践,人力资源评估的主要障碍以及英国组织在这一领域五年内的预期进展。虽然大多数答复者认为人力资源的计量/估值对其组织很重要,但预计在财务报表中确认人力资源价值方面只有很少或适度的进展。造成这种情况的主要原因被确定为组织内其他人,特别是高级管理人员对该领域缺乏了解和支持、缺乏资源、不确定应报告哪些资料以及目前的人力资源措施缺乏准确性和可靠性。研究发现,人力资源专业人员比会计专业人员对这一领域更感兴趣,人力资源的估值应包括在内部报告中,而不是向外部报告。现在需要进行更多的研究,包括组织内部人力资源评估的概念模型和实证研究,重点关注诸如高级管理层对人力资源评估的承诺、人力资源评估系统的发展、评估员工的系统在开发后如何在组织中实施以及系统在实践中如何运作的有意和无意的后果等问题。

This research uses a survey questionnaire to identify perceptions and practices in the area of valuing human resources in three types of UK organizations; traditional companies, knowledge intensive companies and local authorities. The survey focuses on the importance of valuing human resources, current measurement practices, key barriers to the valuation of human resources and the progress expected in this field over five years in UK organisations. Although the majority of respondents identified that the measurement/valuation of human resources was important to their organization, only little or moderate progress in recognizing the worth of human resources in financial statements was expected. The main reasons for this were identified to be lack of understanding and support of the area by others in the organization, particularly senior management, lack of resources, uncertainty as to what information should be reported and lack of precision and reliability in current human resource measures.
