Scholarly Contribution Award
Prof. Gordon Redding, Winner of the Distinguished Contribution Award
Prof.
Redding is Director, The Euro-Asia and Comparative Research Centre,
INSEAD, a position he assumed after a long and distinguished career as
Professor of Management Studies at Hong Kong University. Gordon is one
of the pioneers of Chinese management research. He has published many
books and articles on the subject. Perhaps his single most influential
and cited work is The Spirit of Chinese Capitalism (1990). Virtually all
scholars who seek to gain a better understanding of Chinese management
practices have read this book.
Prof. Mike Peng, Winner of the Scholarly Contribution Award
Mike
is the Provost’s Distinguished Professor of Global Strategy at the
University of Texas at Dallas. Mike Peng graduated from the University
of Washington in 1996. He has published three books, 39 journal
articles, and 24 non-refereed publications. His publications on
strategies employed by domestic and international companies competing in
Greater China have appeared in AMJ, AMR, JIBS, JM, JMS, OS, and
SMJ. Mike’s principal contribution to the literature lay in his
advocating an institution-based view of strategy as one of the three
legs in a "strategy tripod" – the other two legs are the more
established industry- and resource-based views. Mike is also the editor
of Asia Pacific Journal of Management.
Captain Jia-Fu Wei, Winner of the Distinguished Executive Award Captain Jia-Fu Wei is Executive President and CEO of China Ocean Shipping Company (COSCO). Captain Wei has been serving COSCO for over 38 years through which he grew up from a deck employee to a captain and to a top leader of the company. He led two key transformations of COSCO: from a global shipping carrier to a global logistics provider integrating rail, river, and road transport, terminal operations, and documentation; and from a China-based shipper to a multinational company optimizing operations globally, utilizing local staff, decentralizing decisions, and relying on the COSCO culture to unite the company worldwide. The ultimate aim of these initiatives is a much more fundamental transformation of COSCO from a state-owned enterprise to a state-controlled enterprise that is subject to the discipline of global capital markets.
Captain
Wei is not only a successful entrepreneur but also has a strong sense
of social responsibility. Under his leadership COSCO has devoted many
resources with the aim at being a good corporate citizen. In 2004, COSCO
signed in the Global Compact Movement and promised to be a green
service provider. In recent years, COSOC has contributed more than a
hundred million Yuan (RMB) in environment protection and improvement of
product quality. In addition, COSCO has been paying a lot of attention
to the welfare and safety and health of its own employees and its
customers. |
