Mestrado em Finanças<br>The perspectives assessment of any given company is a vital step to the efficiency of the valuation process. A correct assessment will result in the definition of assumptions that will lead to better valuation results. Wrong conclusions are frequently taken because a bad assessment was made and this is the result of the lack of a proper framework that guides the analysis of company perspectives. To solve this problem we decided to use strategic management theory and test the relation between stock returns and competitive advantages
relevant for a given industry. We applied this method to the Steel Industry and tested it statistically. The results showed us that, generally, improvements in the operational efficiency, measured by the first differences in gross margin, provide excess returns. This results show us that the use of Competitive Advantages to select portfolios, in the Steel Industry, yields better than average returns.<br>A avaliação das perspectivas para uma determinada empresa é um passo critico no processo de valorização de uma acção. Uma correcta avaliação resulta na definição de um conjunto de
pressupostos que levarão a uma avaliação mais precisa. Analises erradas levam a conclusões
erradas e são resultado da falta de um quadro orientador que direccione o estudo das
perspectivas das empresas em causa. Para resolver este problema decidimos recorrer à teoria
da gestão estratégica e testar a relação entre rendibilidades de acções e Vantagens Competitivas relevantes em determinada indústria. Aplicámos este método à Industria Siderúrgica e realizamos testes estatísticos. Os resultados mostram-nos que, na generalidade, melhorias na eficiência operacional, medida através das primeiras diferenças da margem bruta, oferece retornos acima da taxa de retorno sem risco. Estes resultados mostram-nos que a selecção de portfolios, utilizando Vantagens Competitivas, permitem-nos obter retornos acima da média.

Dissertação de Mestrado em Gestão.<br>O presente Relatório de Atividade Profissional pretende contribuir para perceber o que
torna certas empresas mais competitivas do que outras no seu processo de
internacionalização e o impacto que este, baseado em vários fatores de competitividade e
características empresariais e regionais, pode ter na construção de vantagens
competitivas e no desempenho geral das empresas.
Michael Porter (1990) defende que uma empresa só deve avançar para a
internacionalização e consequente expansão quando a sua posição está bem definida
dentro do seu próprio país. Só quando a empresa tiver vantagem competitiva perante os
seus concorrentes internos é que deve tentar conquistar o mercado externo. Para isso
ocorrer de uma forma sustentável, a empresa deve estar bem estruturada e deve
conhecer a sua própria situação financeira e os seus limites (Porter, 1990).
O presente Relatório de Atividade Profissional, elaborado no âmbito do Mestrado em
Gestão da Universidade Portucalense, tem como objetivo apresentar uma análise ao
tema da internacionalização empresarial e sua aplicabilidade em contexto real, através da
experiência profissional enquanto Area Manager de uma empresa exportadora - a Recer.
Para o efeito, parte da revisão de literatura apoia-se numa abordagem integrada que
possibilite uma compreensão geral no desempenho internacional das empresas. Na
segunda parte do Relatório é apresentada a atividade profissional desenvolvida no âmbito
da internacionalização da empresa Recer.
Assim, os objetivos específicos deste Relatório são a análise (1) da importância e formas
da internacionalização, (2) da estrutura dinâmica da empresa Recer no processo da sua
estratégia de internacionalização e (3) da perspetiva do Area Manager.
Assim, analisa-se aqui o caso de uma empresa portuguesa e de que forma as teorias e
modelos de internacionalização se podem concretizar na prática.<br>This Report intends to contribute to understand what makes a company more competitive
than others in its internationalization process and the impact that it can have in building
competitive advantage and in the overall business performance, based on various
competitive factors and regional characteristics.
Michael Porter (1990) supports that a company should only advance to internationalization
and consequent expansion when its position is well defined within its own country. Only
when the company has competitive advantage over its domestic competitors should it try
to conquer the foreign market. For this to occur in a sustainable way, the company should
be well structured and should also know its own financial situation and its limits.
This Report, elaborated as part of the Master in Management at Universidade
Portucalense, has as main goal presenting an analysis to the subject of business
internationalization and its application in a real context, through the professional
experience of the author as Area Manager in a Portuguese exporting company – Recer.
The literature review is based on an integrated approach enabling the general
understanding of the company’s international performance. In the second part of this
Report is presented the professional activity developed in the internationalization process
of the company.
Thus, the specific objectives of this Report are the analysis of (1) the importance and
different modes of internationalization, (2) the dynamic structure of the company Recer in
its internationalization process and (3) the Area Manager’s perspective.
From a practical point of view there are several modes of firms’ internationalization.
Hereby, it is analyzed the case of a Portuguese company and how theories can be
implemented in practice.<br>Orientação: Prof. Doutora Cláudia Carvalho.

Competence acquisition in small firms is an under-researched area. The purposes of the entire thesis are, to describe how small firms acquire competence, to create an understanding by identifying factors that can affect how small firms handle competence acquisition, and why these factors affect the acquisition of competence, and to develop and test a model about competence acquisition. The study draws upon the resource-based view, the competence-based view, the strategy literature and entrepreneurship literature. A model about competence acquisition in small firms is developed and tested. Predictors identified are the entrepreneur's experiences, the entrepreneur's tolerance for ambiguity, the business concept and the competence base of the firm and these are found to be relevant factors for explaining actions in competence acquisition. In addition, time and trust are two aspects found to be central for understanding competence acquisition in small firms. A Pecking order in use of competence acquisition modes is apparent among small firms actions where an internal acquisition mode is the most used mode followed by the social network modes and the least used modes are the market acquisition modes.<br>Godkänd; 2007; 20070122 (ysko)

<p>The hotel industry in Stockholm is characterized by intense competition, and within the next couple of years the construction of a number new hotels is planed. As the number of hotels in Stockholm increase, the competition will increase and the importance of having well functioning strategies will become vital. The purpose of this essay is to examine how two hotels within the hotel industry in Stockholm experience and handle the competition. The two hotels that are included in the study are Clarion Hotel Stockholm and Scandic Continental. The essay derives from models and theories that are related to marketing and competition. Our study shows that the perception of competition varies, in addition to the fact that choice of competitive strategies varies dependent on the hotel’s concept. The hotel industry in Stockholm is divided into different areas, depending on which area hotels choose to serve the competitive environment will differ. A hotel with a specific niche will limit its competitors to a narrow number that operate within the same niche. The results of our study show evidence that the competition in the hotel industry in Stockholm is divided, and that this divisional competition will continue to increase as the industry develops. The building of new hotels in the next couple of years will aid the progress of a possible collaboration between the hotels in Stockholm in the future, and thus attract larger meetings and events.</p><br><p>Hotellbranschen i Stockholm kommun präglas av intensiva konkurrensförhållanden, och inom de nästkommande två åren planeras tio nya hotellbyggen i Stockholm kommun. I takt med att nyetableringarna ökar intensifieras konkurrensen mellan aktörerna och det blir allt viktigare att för aktörerna att hitta passande strategier för att hantera den rådande konkurrensen. Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka hur två aktörer inom hotellbranschen i Stockholm kommun uppfattar och hanterar konkurrensen. De aktörer som ingår i undersökningen är Clarion Hotel Stockholm samt Scandic Continental. De teorier och modeller som uppsatsen har utgått ifrån är relaterade till marknadsföring och konkurrens. Vår studie visar att uppfattningen om konkurrens, samt valet av strategier, skiljer sig åt beroende på vilken inriktning hotellen väljer. Hotellbranschen i Stockholm kommun är indelad i olika inriktningar och beroende på vilken inriktning man som aktör väljer att betjäna möts man av skilda konkurrensförhållanden. Ett hotell som väljer en specifik inriktning begränsar sina konkurrenter till ett få antal som är verksamma inom samma område. Resultaten visar tydliga tecken på en splittrad konkurrens inom Stockholm kommun samt att denna splittring troligtvis kommer att fortsätta öka i takt med utvecklingen av branschen. De nyetableringar som kommer att ske de nästkommande åren kommer att underlätta för ett möjligt samarbete mellan hotellen i Stockholm kommun för att locka till sig olika möten, kongresser och evenemang.</p>

Full textAbstract:
Background Globalization has forced textile firms to move their manufacturing to low-cost countries to reduce their prices. However, interest in local manufacturing has increased in recent years because of the trend in sustainability and changes in society’s ways of thinking, both of which can bring textile industry manufacturing back to high-cost countries. Purpose The purpose of this study is to formulate concepts and theories that can differentiate local manufacturers in high-cost countries from their competitors and identify the key competitive advantages that can lead to successful local production in high-cost countries. Methodology Two case studies were conducted of local textile manufacturers in Sweden in this study. Both companies’ value chain activities were examined to determine their competitive advantages. Empirical data were collected using semi-constructed interviews with key managers in both companies and were analysed using the thematic analysis method. Findings The textile industry in high-cost countries can create difference by considering competitive advantages, which are flexible and agile operations, development and innovation, sustainability, combining products and services, and uniqueness and differentiation. However, the competitive disadvantages of textile manufacturing in high-cost countries, which include scarcity of employees and high costs, should be considered as well.

Nos últimos anos a Responsabilidade Social das Organizações (RSO) tem ganho uma profunda
popularidade. Actualmente, muitos gestores têm-se apercebido da necessidade de terem em
consideração a responsabilidade social e também têm tido preocupações acerca dos custos e dos
benefícios potencialmente gerados pela RSO. Desta forma, o estudo do impacto da RSO nas
Vantagens Competitivas (VC) tem uma relevância prática e teórica acrescida.
Este trabalho baseia-se num conjunto de proposições teóricas, procurando avaliá-las de acordo com
uma escala de medida definida, sobre a relação do modelo HEXIE e a RSO. Através da aplicação de
um questionário foram colectados 176 questionários entre 1 de Setembro de 2010 e 30 de Janeiro de
2011 no Norte da China. Para analisar os dados recolhidos foram usadas as técnicas estatísticas da
análise factorial e o modelo de equações estruturais.
Com base nos resultados obtidos, discutimos o papel da RSO no modelo HEXIE no processo de
mediação das VC e da relação entre os stakeholders. Usou-se os softwares Amos 9.0 e SPSS 18.0
para processar e analisar os dados do questionário, para verificar a relações existente entre as
variáveis do modelo conceptual e as hipóteses de investigação. Estas são as principais conclusões:
(1) Como um todo, os gestores Chineses têm um bom desempenho na responsabilidade requerida
pelas normas/lei; contudo têm desempenhos fracos na responsabilidade “obrigatória” ao nível ético
e filantrópico;
(2) A RSO no modelo HEXIE começa com duas dimensões, mecanismo do princípio-dual, a interna
“He” (gestores, cultura organizacional, estratégia do negócio, liderança) e a externa
“Xie” (normativos legais, supervisão das instituições governamentais e organizações não
governamentais, supervisão dos media, standards internacionais);
(3) A relação com os Stakeholders deve ser dividida em dois aspectos: stakeholders que não têm
uma relação de negócio e os que têm uma relação de negócio;
(4) As vantagens competitivas também devem ser separadas em duas dimensões: as externas
(reputação da organização, apoio governamental, tanto financeiro como outro tipo de apoio) e
internas (talento interno, capacidade de inovação);
(5) O modelo HeXie tem uma relação directa com a RSO, mas não positiva, na promoção e
manutenção de VC;
(6) A influência da relação entre a RSO e o modelo HeXie nas VC pode ser analisado da seguinte
forma: RSO no Modelo HeXie -> stakeholders -> vantagens competitivas. Os stakeholders têm um
importante papel na mediação entre a RSO e o Modelo HeXie, potenciando as VC.<br>In the past years, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) gained more and more popularity. At
present, many businesses have realized the necessity and imperative to undertake CSR, and also
been concerned about the costs and benefits possibly generated from CSR. The study about the
impact of CSR on Competitive Advantage (CA) is an important practical and theoretical issue. The
thesis based on theoretical analysis about CSR’ HEXIE management, Stakeholder Relationship and
CA, brings forward a series of propositions and establishes the measurement scales for them.
Through pilot in-depth interview and the questionnaire approaches, we collect 176 questionnaires in
the context of North China from September 1, 2010 to January 30, 2011. On the basis of the statistic
analysis of Factor Analysis and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), we discusse the role of CSR’s
HEXIE management on promoting CA through the mediator variable (Stakeholder Relationship).
The statistics softwares SPSS18.0 and Amos9.0 have been used for processing and analyzing the
survey data, to verify the hypotheses. The conclusions of the thesis are as follow:
(1) As a whole, the Chinese businesses have a good performance in CSR required by the laws,
however, a poor performance in mandatory responsibility at ethical and philanthropic level.
(2) CSR’s HEXIE management is started with the two dimensions, dual-principles mechanism,
internal “He” principle (employee management, corporate culture, business strategy, leadership
concepts) and external “Xie” principle (legal restraint, governmental and non-governmental
organizations’ supervision, media supervision, international standards);
(3) Stakeholder relationship is divided into two aspects: non-business related stakeholder
relationships and business related stakeholders;
(4) Competitive advantage is also separated into two dimensions: external CA (enterprise’s
reputation, financing and government support) and internal CA (enterprise’s employees and
innovation ability);
(5) HEXIE management on CSR Plays a direct but not positive role in promoting and maintaing of
competitive advantages;
(6) The positive influence of CSR’s HEXIE management on CA is passed on as follows: CSR’s
HEXIE management -> stakeholders relationships -> CA. The stakeholder relationship plays a
crucial mediator role in increasing the effect from CSR’s HEXIE management on CA.

碩士<br>朝陽科技大學<br>工業工程與管理系碩士班<br>93<br>The enterprise feels the competitive pressure of global operation from appropriate work distribution and changes in the operation of business. Upon entering the trend of global operation, many enterprises follow the international operation model, in which the organization becomes more complex and the business gradually enlarges, resulting in daily demand of integration and control of enterprise resources, flow control and information systems. For the global enterprise of the new century, management of the supply chain became a vital key element in gaining a competitive advantage. By applying supply chain management, a new operation model was created, changing operational activity of the enterprise’s production and sales, while altering the ways of mutual trade and communications. It also promoted integration of business, material, finances, and the flow of information. In the light of fierce competition, the focus of the competition shifted from individual manufacturing businesses to supply chains. Through the management of the supply chain, trading times and costs were reduced, increasing the performance and competitive abilities of the enterprises.
The study, based on the view of Central Taiwan’s optical industries, surveyed the operating performance of the implementation of supply chain management. It revolves around central Taiwan’s optical manufacturing, and seven companies were surveyed through a self-designed questionnaire. Applying the related statistic analysis, it verified Porter’s (1990) theory, and it obtained a few importance research discoveries from that.
The results of Correlation Matrices and regression Analysis were analyzed based on nine elements of significance of production: rarity, durability, threat from imitation, threat from alternation, cost of maintenance, cost of acquirement, mobility and controllability, along with the assisting industrial element. Through the analysis, it was proven that the productive factors in the optical industry in central Taiwan were influential in the manufacturer’s competitive advantage.
Designation of the assistance industry, production element and required condition were the three major-independent variables, while value of product, manufacturing capability, management capability in dealing with operational risks, cost of manpower, sale capability and the whole profitability were the six minor dependent variables. Using these variables in regression analysis, it was illustrated that the whole model had reached its apparent level.
Therefore, the research offers a practical suggestion to both the industries and government, and it should benefit both competitive advantages and future developments.

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>高階公共管理組<br>93<br>The continuous uprising of environmental pollution has brought the most severe threats ever to the human beings. Environmental protection has become a global issue that leads to the adoption of more stringent standards and regulations by many countries. Those established regulations doubtlessly imposed impacts and challenges to most enterprises worldwide.
Most enterprises still consider that environmental protection approaches generate financial burdens, and consequently lose the competitive advantages. However, the concept that environmental protection always counteracts with financial benefits was considered a myth by Porter & Linde in 1995. They pointed out that, in the dynamic market enterprises can increase their competitiveness through proactive innovations in cleaner production, waste minimization, reuse, recycling, and substitutions with less toxic materials.
Some enterprises have recognized their obligations to protect the earth and started implementing environmental management system, to increase the resource utilization, enhance occupational safety, and intensify environmental protection related work, to increase the competitiveness. Since the ISO 14001, the Guidance of Environmental Management System, was promulgated in 1996, enterprises have voluntarily implemented it to achieve the goal of sustainable development and increase competitiveness.
This study analyzed three domestic companies – Taiwan Power Company (Taichung Plant), Cheng Loong Corp. (Tayuan plant), and Tatung Company, to reveal the status and effect of their environmental management system. Combined with the personal interviews and on-site analysis, this study followed the principles of innovative organization (Scott, 1992) to investigate the effect of “Green Innovations” and “Innovative organization management” in these three companies.
The results are revealed as follows:
(1)The major motivations of the “green innovations” are the environmental regulations and international environmental protocols.
(2)The efficiency generated by “green innovations” makes the enterprises cost-effective and then the competitiveness is lifted.
(3)The commitment of top executives, the establishment of specific organization, and the execution of environmental management are critical to the success.
(4)Light green innovations are easier and more effective for most enterprises.
(5)Some intangible benefits can be generated during the application of environment management system.
(6)Although there is no relevant evidences illustrate the interaction between environmental efficacy and financial status, the poor environmental efficacy will affect the financial status.
According to this study, the following recommendations can be illustrated:
(1)Implementing the environmental management system to cope with the development of green supply chain by domestic small to medium-sized enterprises.
(2)Emphasizing the importance of the law one the ISO 14001 registrar.
(3)Preparing large-scale and international enterprises to keep abreast with the international protocols (e.g., EU WEEE and ROHS. KOYTO PROTOCOL)
(4)Proactively promoting the green consumption.
(5)Continuously promoting the reveal of non-financial report including environmental information

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>淡江大學<br>管理科學學系企業經營碩士在職專班<br>104<br>For the past decade, the major source of profit for computer system integrators under a mature and highly competitive industry structure is through designing, planning and setting up the system and provide professional services. Nowadays, adequately controlling procurement cost is vital for system integrators to surpass competitors in fierce competition. The procurement cost is the key consideration for system integrators to enhance competitive advantages. This study employed interviews to collect information. The main purpose is to explore the impacts of the relationship between buys and suppliers on procurement strategies throughout the procurement process.
There were three major conclusions derived out of the data analysis. Firstly, delivery is the most important factor among delivery, price and service. Secondly, systems integrators’ gross-profit margin and price-bargaining power tend to be lower when dealing with large-scale providers. Thirdly, customized application would reduce inventory pressures for suppliers and purchasers.
Lastly, this study provided suggestions toward the stipulation of procurement policies that would enhance the relationships between buyers and suppliers. Consequently, vender selection decisions could be improved in the decision making process so as to rise up the extent to which buyers collaborate with suppliers. Furthermore, how to strengthen the procurement function is also recommended in the study.
