环境不确定性、高管特征与组织冗余——来自中国上市公司的证据

发布时间：2018-11-27 19:41

【摘要】：组织冗余可以为企业有效缓冲环境不确定性,但持有过多的组织冗余需要付出成本,因此企业需要持有合理的组织冗余。笔者从环境包容性和环境动态性两个维度探索了环境不确定性对于企业组织冗余持有水平的影响机制,以及高管特征对环境不确定性与组织冗余二者关系的调节作用;利用397家中国A股制造业上市公司面板数据进行了实证检验。研究发现:环境包容性对组织冗余有显著的负向影响;环境动态性对组织冗余有显著的正向影响;高管特征正向调节了环境不确定性与组织冗余之间的关系,这在实证层面上解释了客观环境不确定性与认知环境不确定性存在差异的原因。我们的结论揭示了组织冗余的产生机制,有助于厘清组织冗余与企业战略的关系。笔者基于研究结论认为:企业应该根据环境不确定性程度来调整组织冗余的持有水平,同时还要警惕高管个人认知对真实的环境不确定出现认知偏差,导致企业不能有效应对环境变化。
[Abstract]:Organizational redundancy can effectively buffer the uncertainty of the environment, but holding too much organizational redundancy needs to pay the cost, so enterprises need to hold reasonable organizational redundancy. From the two dimensions of environmental inclusiveness and environmental dynamics, the author explores the influence mechanism of environmental uncertainty on the level of organizational redundancy, and the regulatory role of executive characteristics on the relationship between environmental uncertainty and organizational redundancy. Using the panel data of 397 Chinese A-share manufacturing companies, the paper makes an empirical test. The results show that: environmental inclusiveness has a significant negative impact on organizational redundancy, environmental dynamics has a significant positive impact on organizational redundancy; Executive characteristics positively regulate the relationship between environmental uncertainty and organizational redundancy, which explains the difference between objective environmental uncertainty and cognitive environmental uncertainty. Our conclusion reveals the mechanism of organizational redundancy and helps to clarify the relationship between organizational redundancy and enterprise strategy. Based on the conclusion of the study, the author thinks that enterprises should adjust the level of organizational redundancy according to the degree of environmental uncertainty, and also be on guard against cognitive bias of personal cognition of executives to the uncertainty of real environment. As a result, enterprises can not effectively cope with environmental changes.
