Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The management of buyer-supplier relations has come to be regarded as a key to achieving manufacturing competitiveness, particularly in sectors facing global competition based on both price and quality. This book is a theoretical and empirical exploration of the link between the type of buyer-supplier relations and corporate performance. Dr Sako examines how British and Japanese companies in the electronics industry manage their relationships with buyers and suppliers, the empirical study comprising a three-way comparison of a Japanese customer company, a British customer company, and a Japanese company in Britain, and an analysis of 36 supplier companies in Britain and Japan. Variations of the companies' business practices are assessed in terms of technology, the nature of market competition, the national legal framework, financial structures, employment systems, and the mode of entrepreneurship. The author identifies two distinct approaches in the two countries - the arm's-length contractual relation (ACR) in Britain, and the obligational contractual relation (OCR) in Japan - and argues that the trust and interdependence present in the latter can be a powerful springboard from which to achieve corporate success.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long-term, close trading relations based on trust have come to be regarded as a key to the management of buyer-supplier relations in industry, while the arm's length and adversarial commercial bargain has fallen out of favor. This book examines these contrasting approaches, and the link between them and corporate performance, through a study of the electronics industry in Britain and Japan, and offers a unique integration of multi-disciplinary theorizing and original comparative empirical work. It will be of use to those interested in the nature of the firm, and students of comparative economic performance in Japan and Britain.
Download or read book Trust distrust Perceived Quality Perceived Price and Apparel Purchase Intention written by Gargi Bhaduri and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As firms are competing in an increasingly complex business environment, they are concentrating on building trusting relations with customers and create a niche in the market. Especially in the apparel industry which is often criticized with negative media publicity, building trust becomes essential for any firms' performance. Literature review suggests that trust/ distrust has the potential to affect consumers' perception about quality, price and even influence purchase intention. This study sought to investigate the relation between trust/distrust on an apparel firm, consumers' perceived quality, perceived price, and purchase intention. The Theory of Reasoned Action provided the theoretical background for this study. For this study, trust (distrust) was considered to have 2 dimensions: credibility (dis-credibility) and benevolence (malevolence). A 2X2 trust/distrust matrix (High Credibility/High Benevolence, Low Credibility/High Benevolence, Low Credibility/High Benevolence, Low Credibility/Low Benevolence) was designed and each participant was exposed to all four profiles in a random order. The study results indicate that trust/distrust affects consumers' purchase intention. Also, perceived quality mediates the relation between trust/distrust and purchase intention. Perceived price, however, did not moderate the relation between trust/distrust and purchase intention and also did not impact consumers' purchase intention. Implications, limitations and scope of further research are also discussed.

Book excerpt: The U.S. healthcare system exists in a trust crisis. Without trust, the United States Healthcare system is doomed to mediocrity. Although healthcare is the most personal of interactions, the U.S. healthcare system is grounded in a business model based on a win-lose paradigm. Unfortunately, recent events both in society at large and within the healthcare industry have created negative trust resets(TM) that has only magnified the problem. Healthcare is unique in that it personally impacts every individual in the United States; whether being employed in the industry, an influencer such as media or government or a utilizer of healthcare services. If we are to address the challenges of access, cost and quality of healthcare we have to do more than alter payment and organizational models. We have to address the elephant in the room; trust. It will require a conscious behavior change by each stakeholder to improve trust across the system.
Download or read book Broken Trust written by Samuel P. King and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Princess Bernice Pauahi Bishop was the largest landowner and richest woman in the Hawaiian kingdom. Upon her death in 1884, she entrusted her property--"known as Bishop Estate--"to five trustees in order to create and maintain an institution that would benefit the children of Hawai'i: Kamehameha Schools. A century later, Bishop Estate controlled nearly one out of every nine acres in the state, a concentration of private land ownership rarely seen anywhere in the world. Then in August 1997 the unthinkable happened: Four revered kupuna (native Hawaiian elders) and a professor of trust-law publicly charged Bishop Estate trustees with gross incompetence and massive trust abuse. Entitled "Broken Trust," the statement provided devastating details of rigged appointments, violated trusts, cynical manipulation of the trust's beneficiaries, and the shameful involvement of many of Hawai'i's powerful. No one is better qualified to examine the events and personalities surrounding the scandal than two of the original "Broken Trust" authors.Their comprehensive account together with historical background, brings to light information that has never before been made public, including accounts of secret meetings and communications involving Supreme Court justices.

Download or read book A Model of Trust in Quality and North South Trade written by Eric Bennett Rasmusen and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Countries have different comparative advantages in quality. These might be due to technological differences, or to reputation differences of the sort described in Klein & Leffler (1981). Reputation differences are particularly interesting, since good reputations are a form of social capital that is amenable to modelling. They can explain why firms in these industries like to export even if the foreign price is no higher than the domestic one, and why governments would like to have large high-value sectors.
Download or read book Price Rigidity in Customer Markets written by Elke Renner and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Customer markets are characterized by long-term relationships between buyers and sellers that evolve if buyers trust sellers to provide high quality and if sellers are trustworthy. However, changes in the terms of this implicit contract may antagonize customers and disrupt the relationship. We experimentally show that mutually beneficial long-term relationships frequently prevail in markets for experience goods and that price rigidity after a temporary cost shock is much more pronounced if price increases cannot be justified by cost increases. Hence, long-term relationships in customer markets mitigate market failure of the "lemons" type, but are prone to price stickiness.
Download or read book The Book of Trust written by Yoram Solomon and published by . This book was released on 2020-01-14 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Book of Trust, 13-times author and founder of the Trust Building Institute Dr. Yoram Solomon shows you how to build the most important quality you can have: your trustworthiness. A trustworthy salesperson can sell the same product for 29.6% higher price. A trustworthy leader can increase productivity by 64%. Trustworthy CEOs generate 286% better shareholder returns. Yet, trust is deteriorating rapidly in our country. We have lost trust in the government, the media, major brands, our companies, and in each other. This book explains the seven laws of trust: Law #1: Trust is Continuous. Law #2: Trust is Contextual. Law #3: Trust is Personal. Law #4: Trust is Asymmetrical. Law #5: Trust is Transferable. Law #6: Trust is Reciprocal. Law #7: Trust is Two-sided. The model in this book demonstrates how to build your trustworthiness through six components: competence, shared values, fairness/symmetry, positivity, time, and intimacy. This model is based on more than a decade of research done by the author, decades of experience as an executive and board member of multiple organizations, from startups to multi-billion dollar entities, as an elected official, and as a member of the Israeli Defense Forces 35th Airborne Paratroopers brigade. This book is not theoretical. While based on research, it offers a strong action plan that helps you identify and build the habits that will make you trustworthy. It is accompanied by a series of mini-books that include specific, one-page habits that would address any trustworthiness issue you might have in any relationship, professional or personal.
