Título : Explaining Productivity Differences : Comparative Analysis of Automotive Plants in Japan, the United States, Thailand and China Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Shibata, Hiromichi ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: Singapore : Springer Singapore Fecha de publicación: 2016 Otro editor: Imprint: Springer Colección: SpringerBriefs in Business, ISSN 2191-5482 Número de páginas: XI, 59 p. 1 illus Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-981-10-1959-3 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Business Leadership Production management International business enterprises Automobile industry and trade Labor economics Management Automotive Industry Economics Strategy/Leadership Clasificación: 658 Empresas. Organización de empresas Resumen: This book, in contrast with previous research and popular discussions that focus on the productivity of workers, identifies the critical influence of supervisors and engineers as key drivers of productivity differentials. To do so, it analyzes productivity at a Japanese car component plant and its three offshoot plants located in the United States, Thailand, and China and how productivity evolved at these plants from the mid-1990s to the early 2010s. The author's participatory observation approach reveals that productivity and work practices converged to a limited degree over the years at all four plants. Particularly influential are the persistent differences at these plants in the extent to which workers learn how to combine and integrate their production skills with troubleshooting skills. Supervisors play a key role in developing this integration in Japan, while worker skills remain separated in the other countries. Integrated skill development is promoted in Japan through the trusting relationships that first-line supervisors enjoy with their workforce. In the plants abroad, in contrast, the persistence of workers' control over their individual skill development and careers impedes the development of integrated skills. Manufacturing engineers at the Japanese mother plant also play key linking roles, thereby enhancing communications and problem-solving on the shop floor, whereas manufacturing engineers at the US, Thai, and Chinese plants play more limited and compartmentalized roles. As a result, productivity remains high in Japan and lags in the other plants. Surprisingly, Japanese managers remain reluctant to introduce these more productive work practices in the offshoot plants Nota de contenido: 1. Introduction -- 2. The Mother Plant in Japan and Its Transplants in the United States -- 3. The Transplants in Thailand and China -- 4.

Título : Multinational Companies, Knowledge and Technology Transfer : Turkey's Automotive Industry in Focus Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Alper Sönmez ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: Cham : Springer International Publishing Fecha de publicación: 2013 Otro editor: Imprint: Springer Colección: Contributions to Management Science, ISSN 1431-1941 Número de páginas: XXVI, 371 p. 26 illus Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-3-319-02033-4 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Business Entrepreneurship Management Industrial management Globalization Markets Automotive engineering and Innovation/Technology Engineering Emerging Markets/Globalization Clasificación: 658 Empresas. Organización de empresas Resumen: This book provides evidence on how FDI leads to knowledge and technology transfers towards domestic firms by paying attention to the role of multinational companies. The author presents a comprehensive empirical research conducted at firm-level in the Turkish automotive industry. Using a representative sample of face-to-face in-depth interviews with top-executives and a survey of top level managers of domestic suppliers, the research analyzes the existence, channels, intensity and determinants, and the kind of transfers that occur at both inter- and intra-firm level in the industry. The author contends that policies aimed at attracting FDI flows should be reexamined under the findings and insights of this study since it is a necessary – although not sufficient - condition to have an efficient absorptive capacity level and/or skilled human capital stock in order to benefit from these flows. This study has policy implications for the automotive industry as well as practical recommendations for the public institutions and top-executives in emerging country companies and multinationals in order to conceive and implement science and technology policies in supporting the knowledge transfers Nota de contenido: 1.

Organización de empresas Resumen: This book is about the history of product variety in the US automotive industry from the black Ford-T to hot-rodders and easy-riders up to latest trends. It focuses on the dual structure of automotive industry in the United States: on one hand, relatively few and large companies producing cars that apparently achieve a degree of market power through product differentiation, and on the other hand, a relatively small niche market with distinct and smaller producers offering specialty equipment to enhance the performance, appearance, and handling of vehicles.

The authors contend that the current understanding of lead markets does not sufficiently explain the business practices that are born out of the intensified globalization of innovation. Lead markets are considered crucial for the global diffusion of new products and this book investigates whether sustainable lead markets can also emerge in developing economies, and if so, under which conditions.
