In the digital economy era, the operating logic of manufacturing enterprises has changed from product-driven to service-driven, and digital servitization has become an important realization path of the service-driven logic. To gain insight into the emerging phenomenon of digital servitization, this paper selects SANY Group as the case companyto analyze the connotation and composition of digital servitization and reveal the impact mechanism of differentiated data endowments on digital servitization of manufacturing enterprises. This paper finds the following: (1) The digital servitization of a manufacturing enterprise usually goes through three stages: product + service, product × service, and product-service integration, which are also known as digital extended services, digital customized services, and digital ecosystem services; (2) differentiated data endowments that are mainly based on product data, user data, and platform data constitute the key driving factor for the digital servitization of manufacturing enterprises; (3) data affordance behaviors, which mainly include data-pipeline affordance behaviors, data-insight affordance behaviors, and data-governance affordance behaviors, offer the key path for differentiated data endowments to influence the digital servitization of manufacturing enterprises. This paper deconstructs the digital servitization modes and constructs a theoretical model that describes the transmission among differentiated data endowments, data affordance behaviors, and digital servitization. It offers new perspectives and pathways for research on digital servitization, as well as valuable managerial insights for Chinese manufacturing enterprises seeking to overcome growth limitations and expand their value creation space through digital servitization innovation.
Amid economic and ecological crises,the sharing econ-omy has emerged as an advocate for a cooperative consumption lifestyle.In this economy model,platform enterprises,the supply side and the demand side are considered the three main components.Platform enterprises facilitate the sharing idle resources between the supply and the demand side through the creation of P2P plat-forms and derive returns from these transactions.Unlike traditional enterprises,platform enterprises have a dual workforce consisting of formal workers employed under standard employment relationships and sharing workers engaged in cooperative relationships,repre-senting the supply side of idle resources.However,the relationship between these emerging human resources,such as sharing workers,and platform enterprises is complex and unique.While sharing workers are essential to platform enterprises and the platform en-terprises heavily rely on them,there is no employment relationship between the two,resulting in a weak binding force on sharing workers.It is evident that the human resource management theory and practice based on the traditional employment relationship is not suitable for this category of emerging workers.As a result,there is an urgent need to explore the sharing worker management practice(SWMP). Therefore,this study comprehensively utilized a variety of research methods such as grounded theory,cross-case study and question-naire surveys,and employed technical means such as in-depth inter-views,participatory observation,and empirical analysis to system-atically explore the practical system,measurement tools,and mech-anism of SWMP.In Study 1,based on the grounded theory,the Didi Chuxing and Huajiao Live platform were selected for a cross-case study.Through interviews,participatory observation,analysis of official apps and websites,original data totaling more than 110,000 words was collected.In Study 2,eight investigators conducted a questionnaire survey of 399 online ride-hailing drivers in Shang-hai and Chengdu to gather data for scale development.In Study 3,a questionnaire survey was conducted on 273 online ride-hailing drivers in Shanghai and Chengdu to explore the mechanism of SWMP on work engagement through organizational identification and proactive personality,further testing the predictive validity of the SWMP scale. This study includes the following main contents.In Study 1,after the data analysis involving the extraction of code,concept,sub-category and main category,a total of 1223 codes,37 concepts,16 subcategories and 3 main categories were identified.This process helped to establish the SWMP system including platform support,platform incentives,and platform constraints.In Study 2,building upon the findings of Study 1 and considering the practice system and worker perception,a three-dimension 11-item SWMP scale was developed to provide measurement tools for quantitative research in this field.Specifically,the platform support dimension comprises 4 items,the platform incentives dimension includes 3 items,and the platform constraints dimension consists of 4 items.Results of confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated that the SWMP scale ex-hibits good construct validity.In Study 3,analysis of the question-naire data revealed that platform support,platform incentives,and platform constraints had a positive impact on the work engagement.Platform support,platform incentives,and platform constraints had indirect and positive impact on work engagement through organi-zational identification.Moreover,it was observed that the proactive personality negatively moderated the relationship between the platform support,platform incentives,and the work engagement,as well as the relationship between platform support,platform incen-tives and the organizational identification. The theoretical significance of this study lies in several key aspects.Firstly,it aims to construct the functional system of SWMP,pro-viding a clear understanding of its structural dimension and content framework.Secondly,developing the SWMP scale with good reli-ability and validity provides a reliable measurement tool for empir-ical and quantitative research in this field.Finally,by constructing and validating the theoretical model of SWMP's influence mech-anism,this study introduces the theory of human resource man-agement practices into platform-based organizations,which helps to enrich the disciplinary perspective of sharing economy research and promote the advancement of platform organization theory.The practical significance of this study is also noteworthy.Firstly,it emphasizes the prioritization of people and the enhancement of organizational support for sharing workers.Secondly,it seeks to op-timize the system and improve the job satisfaction of sharing work-ers.Thirdly,it highlights the importance of strengthening customer service to improve the organizational identity of sharing workers.Additionally,it aims to fulfill promises and enhance the work en-thusiasm of sharing workers.Finally,it underlines the importance of standardizing management to improve the sense of organizational fairness among sharing workers.
跨越"死亡之谷"是学术创业企业面临的一大难题,从需求视角探索技术开发与应用场景的匹配至关重要,但鲜有研究对该问题提供理论解释和实证研究证明.本文以四家人工智能技术驱动的学术创业企业为例,说明如何通过连续性创新模式跨越"死亡之谷".研究发现,柔性框架是产生连续性创新的关键前因,并总结出柔性框架的三个维度:技术抽象化、行业具象化和确定性试错.柔性框架不仅增进了企业对外界信息的获取与反馈,还提高了技术开发与客户需求的互动频率,最终缩小了技术开发与应用场景之间的断层.本文丰富和完善了技术框架理论,提供了需求视角下技术商业化的实现路径.同时,对学术创业企业跨越"死亡之谷"的实践活动提供理论指导,并对建立市场导向型的科技成果转化系统提供政策启发.
本文围绕"技术孵化器如何通过组合管理促进被孵技术创业企业间的价值共创"这一重要研究问题,对具有代表性的技术孵化器——中科创星及其被孵企业进行了案例研究.首先,剖析了技术创业企业的原型产品化、合法性获取和场景化开发三项关键价值链活动.在此基础上,归纳了基于价值共创的技术孵化器组合管理机制,即技术孵化器在营造"天使投资+专业孵化+产业生态"的价值共创基础上,通过促进信息共融、主导信任共治、推动协同共进来开展组合管理工作.本文还揭示了技术孵化器组合管理机制如何促进被孵企业间"对话→互动→重构"三个价值共创环节,进而对技术创业企业关键价值链活动赋能.与过去主要关注孵化器与被孵企业间互动的研究不同,本文揭示了技术孵化器借助技术创业企业间的价值共创实现孵化器内部资源整合和被孵企业组合收益提升,同时对技术创业企业早期孵化和技术孵化器运营管理优化具有参考价值.
本文以 2012-2018 年A 股非金融行业上市公司为样本,以瘦身健体改革为准自然实验构建多时点双重差分模型,系统考察了瘦身健体改革对于国有控股公司造血功能的影响及其作用机制.研究发现,瘦身健体改革显著改善了国有控股公司的造血功能,并且主要通过剥离国有控股公司的战略性政策负担,促使其聚焦主业经营、降低组织臃肿程度和减少过度投资三种机制发挥作用.异质性检验表明,瘦身健体改革的政策效果主要存在于改革意愿较高、公司内部和外部治理环境较差的国有控股公司当中.总之,本研究为国有企业瘦身健体改革的积极效果提供了实证证据,对持续推进和深化国企改革具有很好的政策含义.
