ABSTRACT
Haier creatively combined performance management with OEC, and created a highly efficient management of the localization. However, many enterprises met obstacles while imitating Haier, which means that the enterprises need to resolve many problems enabling OEC to play a full role.
The paper first proceeds from Chinese traditional culture, and traces the traditional culture genes, learning and understanding the implementation of Taoism, Confucianism and Legalism in modern enterprise management. Taoism influences things visible into invisible, affecting people’s thinking; Confucianism influences things disorderly into orderly, guiding one’s daily behavior; Legalism influences things orderly into systematic, promoting systematized management. These three have their own merits each and supplement each other, putting forward a number of enlightenment.
Secondly, integrating with the theory of constraints by Goldratt, on the foundation of analyzing the effect of using OEC and the problems encountered in Redrock Group, the paper discover five constraints in using OEC in performance management, including the leader’s character, attitude and execution, differences of industry nature and position trait, staff’s habits, attitudes and sense of responsibility, fundamental environment and other issues.
In the guidance of Chinese and foreign management thinking of ancient and modern, based on our traditional culture gene, we identify and improve the constraints, innovate our Chinese own implementation tool, raise the level of enterprise management, sounding the clarion call of Chinese localized management model.
