  • Constructing Large Multinational Corporations from China: East Meets West at Huawei, 1987-2017
    Constructing large multinational corporations from China: East meets West at Huawei, 1987-2017 Johann Peter Murmann Professor of Strategy Institute of Management University of St. Gallen, 9000 St. Gallen, Switzerland email: [email protected] Can Huang Professor & Head of Department of Innovation, Entrepreneurship & Strategy, Co-Director of Institute for Intellectual Property Management School of Management, Zhejiang University, China Zhejiang University Hangzhou, 310058, P.R. China Email: [email protected] Xiaobo Wu Cheung Kong Chair Professor honored by the Ministry of Education, China Qiushi Chair Professor of Innovation & Strategic Management Co-director Ruihua Institute for Innovation Management Zhejiang University Hangzhou, 310058, P.R. China email: [email protected] Constructing large multinational corporations from China: East meets West at Huawei, 1987-2017 Abstract: The telecommunication enterprise Huawei, founded in 1987, is one of few multinational companies emerging from China to date. The development of the capabilities that allowed Huawei to become a formidable competitor on the global stage undoubtedly owes a great deal to importation of best practice routines from the West with the help of western consulting firms. But Huawei is also distinctly Chinese. In the West, a founder who relinquished all but a 1.4 percent of equity in the firm to give the remaining shares to employees would be an abnormality. Huawei’s collective ownership arrangement (88,000 people own the other 98.6 percent of the shares) enabled management actions that are unthinkable in the West. The top 6,687 managers in 2007, for example, agreed to collectively resign from the company and to be selectively rehired to avoid falling under new labor law restrictions.

  • Built on Value the Huawei Philosophy of Finance Management
    Built on Value The Huawei Philosophy of Finance Management Weiwei Huang Built on Value “Huawei is an enterprise that deserves respect and is worth learning from. The great importance placed by this tech company on financial management offers us inspiration and insight.” —Liu Chuanzhi, Chairman of the Board of Legend Holdings Corporation, and Founder of Lenovo Group Limited “Enabling ‘lead to cash’, engaging in project operations, ensuring internal and external compliance, using the certainty of rules to deal with the uncertainty of results, allowing flexibility while also ensuring standard operations, rapidly striking a balance and then actively disrupting the balance, and inspiring dedication based on customers’ interests… These are what Huawei Finance has done. Huawei’s financial management practices have redefined the logic behind traditional finan- cial management, and opened a door to a broader world for Chinese enterprises that are working hard to catch up and overtake their global competitors.” —Wu Xiaobo, Director of the National Institute for Innovation Management, School of Management, Zhejiang University “Huawei is a world-class Chinese company that is capable of going head-to-head with the best in the global market. To compete successfully, Huawei focuses on delivering value to customers rather than just reducing costs. Huawei is also able to create value by leveraging the strengths of China. This does not only refer to cheap labor, but also to talented R&D employees who truly grasp core technolo- gies. However, just hiring these talented people isn’t a guarantee to unlock their potential. That’s why Huawei chooses to distribute shares to its employees.
