Features: This book focuses on corporate groups as the primary object of study, elaborating on the evolution of business scope, operational strategies, organizational structures, and management methods during the transition from standalone enterprises to corporate groups and the further evolution from domestic corporate groups to multinational companies. It also outlines the fundamental management strategies for different growth stages of corporate groups and emphasizes the following points:
1. The evolution from standalone enterprises to domestic corporate groups and then to multinational companies can accommodate greater productivity.
2. The evolution of the organizational structure of corporate groups involves the reconfiguration of responsibilities, authorities, and benefits, as well as the reconstruction of the management system.
3. The management of corporate groups must align with external conditions, internal strengths, and the development trends of the group.
4. Different stages of corporate evolution require entrepreneurs to undergo a transformation, moving from business-oriented to management-oriented and ultimately to leader-oriented. The management of corporate groups differs significantly from that of standalone enterprises in many aspects, necessitating the application of new theories and methods. For this reason, the author reiterates the concept of "holistic management" in the book. This book can serve as a textbook for undergraduate and graduate students in finance and economics at universities, as well as a reference for corporate group managers, government departments, and researchers.
