摘要
促进战略协同是企业集团总部的重要职责。现有文献对战略协同的实现路径没有清晰一致的认识,在加强管控还是充分授权上各执一词。本文基于可供性—实现视角,通过与工具理性等相关概念的对比,提出了“管控效力”概念。然后,以104家大型国有企业集团为样本,采用定性比较分析(QCA)方法,考察了特定管控方式与管控效力各维度和集团组建方式、文化整合度等情境变量的组合如何影响大型国有企业集团内部的战略协同。研究结果显示,大型国有企业集团内部的战略协同有多条实现路径,包括:以实施全面管控为核心条件,以强运营管控匹配非先子后母集团组建方式或高文化整合度,以强战略管控匹配高管控效力,以弱管控匹配高管控效力四类路径。总部对下属单位的管控越全面、越严格,实现战略协同的路径就越多。而战略协同不能实现的原因是,总部对下属单位运营的管控弱且管控效力不足。本文深化了转型经济情境下管控方式与战略协同之间关联的中层理论,也为管理者通过管控方式选择来促进集团内部战略协同提供了实践指导。
Promoting synergy is an important function of headquarters in business groups.But there is not clear and consisitent knowledge of the paths to strategic synergy in extant literarure,with controversial views of imposing control versus assigning autonomy.From the view of affordance and based on the comparison of instrumental rationality and other related constructs,a new construct named control efficacy is developed.Then this study takes 104 large state-owned enterprises as samples and examines the conjunctive effects,via qualitative comparative analysis(QCA),on strategic synergy of specific control mode and its multi-dimensional efficacies as well as contextual conditions,including the way of setting up and the degree of cultural integration of the business group,from the configurational perspective.The results show that there exist a number of equifinal paths to realize strategic synergy in business groups,including srong strategic and operational control,strong operational control combined with the context that the corporate parents are not formed through the simple aggreation of pre-existed subsidiaries or with a high degree of cultural integration,strong strategic control combined with high control efficacies,and weak control combined with high control efficacies.There are more paths to realize strategic synergy when headquarters impose stronger overall control over subsidiaries.The causality for not realizing strategic synergy is the co-presence of low operational control and low control efficacies.This study deepens the mid-range theory on the relationships between control modes and strategic synergy in the context of transition economy and provides practical guidances for group executives to promote strategic synergy through selecting suitable control modes.
