Joey Tamer
Presents a detailed overview of the challenges of creating new ventures within established corporations, and offers success strategies for overcoming these challenges. The author outlines her experience from more than 25 years of consulting to new ventures, independent of and within corporate structures, including many within Fortune 500 companies. Several case studies of successful and unsuccessful ventures are described, including successful ventures that were later closed down by the corporation. Tamer offers explanations for the outcome of each venture. Findings include strategies to ensure the success of a new venture within a corporation: defining capital strategies (including start‐up and exit strategies that create profitable new divisions, and/or create spin‐off companies that bring a return on investment to the corporation); aligning the new venture with corporate goals; maintaining corporate commitment to the new venture; engaging outside experts; and creating strategic alliances inside and outside of the corporation. The strategies presented will help corporations build successful in‐house ventures which can extend the corporation’s market reach, leverage existing assets for increased profitability, or create new companies with a high return on investment. Top management, corporate strategic planners, and heads of newly‐formed divisions will find a blueprint for avoiding classic errors, anticipating obstacles to success, and applying strategies that create profitable new corporate ventures.
详细概述了在已建立的公司中创建新企业所面临的挑战,并提供了克服这些挑战的成功策略。作者概述了她从超过25年的咨询到新企业的经验,独立于公司结构和内部,包括许多财富500强公司。描述了几个成功和不成功的企业案例,包括后来被公司关闭的成功企业。Tamer为每一次冒险的结果提供了解释。研究结果包括确保公司内新企业成功的策略:定义资本策略(包括创建有利可图的新部门的启动和退出策略,和/或创建为公司带来投资回报的分拆公司);使新企业与公司目标保持一致;维持企业对新企业的承诺;聘请外部专家;在公司内外建立战略联盟。所提出的策略将帮助企业建立成功的内部风险投资,这可以扩大公司的市场范围,利用现有资产提高盈利能力,或创建具有高投资回报的新公司。高层管理人员、企业战略规划者和新成立部门的负责人将找到避免经典错误、预测成功障碍和应用创造盈利新企业战略的蓝图。

The purpose of this paper is to propose a model for delivering greater customer value through the clear shaping, enhancing, and living of core values. The approach is to construct a model that explains the approach; illustrate it with a number of useful ideas, likely snags, and real examples. True customer value comes from a series of ordered events and related concepts that management must apply with rigor all the time. The paper shows how different pieces of a complex puzzle fit together into a lucid model. Value is to middle and upper management who are experiencing frustration at getting their message across and talented, overlooked employees who feel they don’t have a voice.
本文的目的是提出一个模型,通过清晰的塑造、提升和实现核心价值,为客户提供更大的价值。该方法是构建一个模型来解释该方法;用一些有用的想法、可能的障碍和真实的例子来说明它。真正的客户价值来自于一系列有序的事件和相关的概念,管理人员必须始终严格地应用这些概念。这篇论文展示了一个复杂谜题的不同部分是如何组合成一个清晰的模型的。对于那些在传达信息时感到沮丧的中高层管理人员和那些觉得自己没有发言权的有才华、被忽视的员工来说,这是有价值的。

Manage your IT projects like an investment portfolio 像管理投资组合一样管理您的IT项目
Pub Date : 2005-12-01 DOI: 10.1108/08944310510557819
Vin D’Amico
This paper provides a clear and simple means of evaluating and managing a portfolio of information technology projects. The ultimate goal being a major reduction in the failure rate for such projects. The phrase “alignment of business and technology goals” (or some variation thereof) is widely used. But, how do you go about “aligning” such intangibles? And, what does “alignment” mean when it comes to information technology projects? Most companies struggle with these questions. The real problem is that they are dealing with the issues on an individual project basis when they should be evaluating all projects as a portfolio. For example, financial investors diversify. There is not a single investment that provides complete risk and reward diversification. Likewise, attempting to manage individual projects to meet corporate goals is futile. Manage the project portfolio instead. Many companies have used Project Portfolio Management successfully. While their results vary, there have been clear, definable gains from using one or more of the approaches discussed in this article. Failure rates for information technology projects are much too high. The survival of information technology as a strategic corporate service depends on better management of IT project portfolios. Too much is written about theories of management or concepts for dealing with failure. This paper is different. It is focused on practical ideas and metrics that any corporation can put to immediate use.
本文为评价和管理信息技术项目组合提供了一种清晰、简单的方法。最终目标是大幅度降低此类项目的故障率。短语“业务和技术目标的一致性”(或其变体)被广泛使用。但是,如何“对齐”这些无形资产呢?当涉及到信息技术项目时,“对齐”意味着什么?大多数公司都在纠结这些问题。真正的问题是,当他们应该将所有项目作为一个组合来评估时,他们是在单个项目的基础上处理问题的。例如,金融投资者多样化。没有一种投资能够提供完全的风险和回报分散。同样,试图管理单个项目以满足公司目标也是徒劳的。取而代之的是管理项目组合。许多公司已经成功地使用了项目组合管理。虽然它们的结果各不相同,但使用本文中讨论的一种或多种方法都有明显的、可定义的收益。信息技术项目的失败率太高了。信息技术作为战略性企业服务的生存取决于对IT项目组合的更好管理。关于管理理论或处理失败的概念写得太多了。这篇论文是不同的。它专注于任何公司都可以立即使用的实用想法和指标。

The platform‐driven organization 平台驱动型组织
Pub Date : 2005-12-01 DOI: 10.1108/08944310510557440
H. Rubenstein
The purpose of this paper is to shed light on two key developments in the field of leadership that are significantly impacting organizations today. These two new developments are transforming businesses and non‐profit organizations alike. These new developments are: the creation of a new category of leadership called “leaders of leaders,” and the reemergence of the leadership tool called, “the platform,” as the cornerstone of organizations. The first finding of this article is that the “real” job description for a “leader of leaders” is very different from the job description of a “leader of followers.” This article explains that difference. Leaders of followers generally view their job as high level “problem solvers.” “Leaders of leaders” have a completely different job. They have the job of creating new, robust and enduring platforms that provide the organization a unique identity, can mold and direct large scale behavior within an organization and can address successfully large classes of problems. Most importantly, when a leader of leaders creates a platform, the leader must also create a feedback system so the platform can be improved on a continuous basis by input from those who are “on the ground” implementing the platform. The value of this article is that you can take the findings and immediately begin to implement some of the changes suggested in this article in your organization. You can transform your leaders into “leaders of leaders” and you can begin to create one or more “platforms” to improve your operations and organizational results.
本文的目的是阐明领导力领域的两个关键发展,这两个发展对当今的组织产生了重大影响。这两个新发展正在改变企业和非营利组织。这些新的发展是:创造了一种新的领导类别,称为“领导者的领导者”,以及作为组织基石的领导工具“平台”的重新出现。本文的第一个发现是,“领导者的领导者”的“真实”工作描述与“追随者的领导者”的工作描述非常不同。本文解释了这种差异。追随者的领导者通常认为他们的工作是高层次的“问题解决者”。“领导者的领导者”有着完全不同的工作。他们的工作是创建新的、健壮的和持久的平台,为组织提供一个独特的身份,可以塑造和指导组织内的大规模行为,并且可以成功地解决大类问题。最重要的是,当领导者的领导者创建一个平台时,领导者还必须创建一个反馈系统,以便平台可以通过“在地面”实施平台的人的输入不断改进。本文的价值在于,您可以利用这些发现,并立即开始在您的组织中实现本文中建议的一些更改。你可以将你的领导者转变为“领导者的领导者”,你可以开始创建一个或多个“平台”来改善你的运营和组织结果。

Intellectual capital in waiting – a strategic IC challenge 等待中的智力资本——一个战略性集成电路挑战
Pub Date : 2005-12-01 DOI: 10.1108/08944310510557143
L. Edvinsson, Peder Hofman‐Bang, K. Jacobsen
The purpose with the paper is to bring forward the opportunities we face by realizing that future economics lie in knowledge and intangibles. We want to communicate this as a giant business potential, as capital in waiting by introducing some tools and cases. Two concrete leadership tools are presented and discussed (IC Rating and Balanced Scorecard‐like approaches) and cases from different places around the globe are introduced. These methods and conclusions will support any organization wishing to take part in the intellectual capital evolution. The countries, societies, businesses and individuals grasping the opportunity of exploit their intellectual capital in waiting will be the winners of tomorrow. Their skills will be shown in new cultivated leadership, new company navigation tools for strategic mapping and measurement, transparent reporting of intangibles as well as new approaches to risk assessment. The longitude perspective of Leif Edvinsson is for the first time combined with the extensive research made within the EU project, PRISM, as well as with two of the most popular practical applications of intangible measurements, IC Rating and the BSC. In addition, the IC Rating and BSC are intertwined, introducing a completely new approach for organizational development, Sei‐Cho.
本文的目的是通过认识到未来的经济学在于知识和无形资产,从而提出我们所面临的机会。我们希望通过引入一些工具和案例,将其作为一个巨大的商业潜力,作为等待的资本来传达。提出并讨论了两种具体的领导力工具(IC评级和类似平衡计分卡的方法),并介绍了来自全球不同地方的案例。这些方法和结论将支持任何希望参与智力资本演变的组织。国家、社会、企业和个人在等待中抓住机会,利用他们的智力资本,将成为明天的赢家。他们的技能将体现在新培养的领导力、用于战略制图和测量的新公司导航工具、无形资产的透明报告以及风险评估的新方法上。Leif Edvinsson的经度视角首次与欧盟项目PRISM内的广泛研究相结合,以及两种最流行的无形测量实际应用,IC评级和平衡计分卡。此外,IC评级和平衡记分卡交织在一起,为组织发展引入了一种全新的方法,Sei - Cho。

Use of scenarios in strategic and political risk analyses 在战略和政治风险分析中使用情景
Pub Date : 2005-12-01 DOI: 10.1108/08944310510556919
Franc Milburn
Over the next 10 to 15 years, the international system (and corporations) will have to adjust to changing power relationships in key regions. These have the potential to provide discontinuities greater in impact than the end of the Cold War. Numerous crises have already surprised economists, ratings agencies, governments and strategic planners alike. Use of scenario analysis is particularly useful in circumstances where it is necessary to take a long‐term view of strategy, and where there is a high level of uncertainty about external influences. One of the principal problems however, is that not enough attention is paid to potential political risk discontinuities with the organization deprived of critical intelligence about the external environment. Building in the flexibility to strategic thinking to understand the possibilities and risks offered by a range of futures is the key to success, if the modern corporate is to be in the best possible state of preparedness for the years ahead. A China case study demonstrates that opposite scenarios for the future are equally plausible, while the history of hegemonic predictions is deeply flawed. Part of the problem being that decision making, whether in the State or strategy department may not be “rational.” The Saudi Arabia case study offers scenarios with global implications. There is no crystal ball that enables analysts to predict future aspects of international relations with certainty, but the aim of scenario analysis is not to be occasionally right about the future, as never to be wrong.
在未来10到15年,国际体系(和企业)将不得不适应关键地区不断变化的权力关系。这些有可能造成比冷战结束更大影响的中断。许多危机已经让经济学家、评级机构、政府和战略规划者都感到意外。在需要从长远角度看待战略以及外部影响存在高度不确定性的情况下,使用情景分析特别有用。然而,其中一个主要问题是,没有对潜在的政治风险给予足够的重视,因为组织被剥夺了对外部环境的关键情报。建立战略思维的灵活性,以理解一系列未来带来的可能性和风险,这是成功的关键,如果现代企业要为未来几年做好最好的准备。对中国的案例研究表明,对未来的相反设想同样合理,而历史上对霸权的预测存在严重缺陷。部分问题在于,无论是在国务院还是在战略部门,决策都可能不“理性”。沙特阿拉伯的案例研究提供了具有全球影响的情景。没有水晶球能让分析人士准确预测国际关系的未来,但情景分析的目的不是偶尔对未来做出正确预测,而是永远不会出错。

Knowledge management: how to foster creation and flow 知识管理:如何促进创造和流动
Pub Date : 2005-12-01 DOI: 10.1108/08944310510557873

The purpose of this article is to help managers and scholars understand the state‐of‐the‐art in knowledge management (KM) and how it is likely to develop further. The paper draws on many examples and original research to outline a conceptual framework describing the evolution of KM. KM is presently limited because the nature of knowledge makes it difficult to actually “manage.” Instead, the field is moving toward an organic form of management focusing on three main concepts: “e‐organizations” that automatically integrate all information and knowledge, “self‐organizing systems” composed of small entrepreneurial units that draw out creative knowledge from the bottom up, and “corporate communities” that use stakeholder knowledge to improve strategy. Managers should develop these organic organizational forms because they encourage the natural creation and flow of knowledge more effectively.
本文的目的是帮助管理者和学者了解知识管理(KM)的最新进展,以及它可能如何进一步发展。本文借鉴了许多实例和原始研究,概述了描述知识管理演变的概念框架。知识管理目前是有限的,因为知识的本质使得它很难真正“管理”。相反,该领域正朝着以三个主要概念为重点的有机管理形式发展:自动整合所有信息和知识的“电子组织”,由自下而上汲取创造性知识的小型创业单位组成的“自组织系统”,以及利用利益相关者知识来改进战略的“企业社区”。管理者应该发展这些有机的组织形式,因为它们更有效地鼓励知识的自然创造和流动。

Partnering in recent years has emerged as an increasingly critical competitive competency for any firm that aims to drive sustainable growth through innovation. In fact, it may not be an overstatement to assert that the success of innovative companies hinges on the quality and longevity of their collaborative relationships. This article talks about how successful companies find partners to help turn them into winning companies.

Best practices for dealing with offshore software development 处理离岸软件开发的最佳实践
Pub Date : 2005-12-01 DOI: 10.1108/08944310510557855
D. A. Vogel, J. Connelly
The purpose of this article is to examine why US companies outsource software development offshore and to present the factors to be considered to determine if the benefits of offshore outsourcing outweigh the drawbacks. Is offshoring worth it in terms of cost savings and quality? What are the risks associated with offshoring software development, and how can you hedge against such risks? What types of software should be considered for offshoring? How can you recognize the danger signs of offshore work going awry? Are there alternatives to outsourcing software development offshore, or are there alternative ways to offshore? Offshore outsourcing of software development may not be worth the risk in all cases. However, in the cases that it is worth moving offshore, this paper makes suggestions about how to help ensure success.
