标题: gwd 3-24求助，以前的帖子都没有回答清楚

Why firms adhere to or deviate

from their strategic plans is poorly

understood. However, theory and

Line limited research suggest that the

(5) process through which such plans

emerge may play a part. In particular,

top management decision-sharing—

consensus-oriented, team-based

decision-making—may increase the

(10) likelihood that firms will adhere to their

plans, because those involved in the

decision-making may be more com-

mitted to the chosen course of action,

thereby increasing the likelihood that

(15) organizations will subsequently adhere

to their plans.

However, the relationship between

top management decision-sharing and

adherence to plans may be affected

(20) by a firm’s strategic mission (its fun-

damental approach to increasing

sales revenue and market share, and

generating cash flow and short-term

profits). At one end of the strategic

(25) mission continuum, “build” strategies

are pursued when a firm desires to

increase its market share and is willing

to sacrifice short-term profits to do so.

At the other end, “harvest” strategies

(30) are used when a firm is willing to

sacrifice marked share for short-term

profitability and cash-flow maximiza-

tion. Research and theory suggest

that top management decision-sharing

(35) may have a more positive relationship

with adherence to plans among firms

with harvest strategies than among

firms with build strategies. In a study

of strategic practices in several large

(40) firms, managers in harvest strategy

scenarios were more able to adhere

to their business plans. As one of the

managers in the study explained it,

this is partly because “[t]ypically all a

(45) manager has to do [when implementing

a harvest strategy] is that which was

done last year.” Additionally, man-

agers under harvest strategies may

have fewer strategic options than do

(50) those under build strategies; it may

therefore be easier to reach agree-

ment on a particular course of action

through decision-sharing, which will

in turn tend to promote adherence

(55) to plans. Conversely, in a “build”

strategy scenario, individual leader-

ship, rather than decision-sharing,

may promote adherence to plans.

Build strategies—which typically

(60) require leaders with strong perso-

nal visions for a firm’s future, rather

than the negotiated compromise

of the team-based decision—may

be most closely adhered to when

(65) implemented in the context of a clear

strategic vision of an individual leader,

rather than through the practice of

decision-sharing.

Q24:

The passage cites all of the following as differences between firms using build strategies and firms using harvest strategies EXCEPT

their willingness to sacrifice short-term profits in order to build market share

their willingness to sacrifice building market share in order to increase short-term profitability

the number of strategic options available to their managers

the relative importance they assign to maximizing cash-flow

how likely they are to employ decision-sharing in developing strategic plans

答案是E

为什么选E呢，文中line 57不是说到：

", individual leader-

ship, , rather than decision-sharing, "不是指出"build strategy"中更多用“individual leadership" 而不是"decision sharing"呢

不过其他的四个倒是也提到过，那位大侠帮小妹分析分析，先谢过了

Conversely, in a “build”strategy scenario, individual leadership, rather than decision-sharing,may promote adherence to plans. Build strategies—which typically(60) require leaders with strong personal visions for a firm’s future, rather than the negotiated compromise of the team-based decision—may be most closely adhered to when (65) implemented in the context of a clear strategic vision of an individual leader, rather than through the practice of decision-sharing.

I think that maybe you misunderstand the sentence. The passage states that individual leadership,rather than decision-sharing, may promote adherence to plans in build strategy scenario. What the sentence states is the result of the two different ways(individual leadership and decision-making). From CR experience, you can't infer that the easier the individual leadership way to promote adherence, the more use of the individual leadership unless the passage states the relationship.

make sense!

感觉E选项很给人错觉...

作者: goyce36 时间: 2008-10-9 18:34

还是不懂为何E没有提到。文中说的是：under harvest strategies，through decision-sharing更容易达成agreenment; 而in a “build” strategy，individual leadership, rather than decision-sharing may promote adherence to plans.而E中的developing strategic plans，这个Plan正是公司所要adhere的，与文中说的一模一样啊！
