Description
University graduates play a significant role in the labor market of China. Universities continuously supply senior talents and provide a strong guarantee to the country’s development. However, with the enlargement of the enrollment scale, more and more graduates become unemployed or forced to be employed. Most literatures mainly focus on the unemployed phenomenon or reasons, but had neglected the relationship among the employment, universities and the labor market. This assay is trying to using the supply and demand theory of classical economics to analyze the training direction and model of university from the perspective of the supply and demand of labor market. This assay proposes that universities have to integrate with the demand of the labor market so that to cultivate the talents to meet the social needs.
Firstly, the essay analyzes the relationship between the universities education and the supply and demand labor market by using the view of labor economics, and shows the mainly phenomenon and features of supply-demand imbalance. And then, the writer considered that universities talent cultivation development of China has gone through “absolute shortage”, “relative shortage” and “structural unbalanced” three stages. Thirdly, the survey results confirmed that the talent cultivation in universities does not match the demand of the labor market. On one other hand, over educated is a common phenomenon in the academic education. On the other hand, the graduates are lack of education skills training. Fourthly, the essay analyzes the reasons which lead to the unbalance. The unbalance is not only affected by the macro factors, but also by the micro factors. Fifthly, build up the interaction system model “UPT-LM” for the universities talent cultivation and the labor market, and separately building up the macro interaction system and the micro interaction system to analyze the balance of supply and demand. Based on this, it should strengthen the interaction on the feedback mechanism. At last, strengthening the connection of universities talent cultivation and labor market is a systematic program which needs the corporation from the government, the universities and the labor market.

Description
Entrepreneurship entails a transition from status quo to a founder/leader of a new organization, and the dominant view in the literature focuses on opportunities in a hypothetical situation, namely an entrepreneurial option. This study shifts the attention from an entrepreneurial option to a current situation and proposes that a perception of costliness in status quo as a driver of entrepreneurial decisions and strategies. Specifically, I propose that a perception of inequality due to the local hierarchy of an organization engenders motivation of disadvantaged employees to become a leader of his/her own entrepreneurial organization. Utilizing hierarchy-based power dynamics and attribution biases, I theorize that i) status gap between a leader and a member and ii) status distinctiveness of a leader in the current organization affect an entrepreneurial decision because of inequality perception. Furthermore, I hypothesize that entrepreneurial organizations driven by such status inequality are more likely to replicate the local structure of the previous employer in terms of status hierarchy to compensate for the perceived disadvantages in the previous employer. The empirical analyses of this study investigate entrepreneurial decisions and entrepreneurial team formation of jazz musicians from jazz discographies between 1950 and 2018, and I found supportive results. This study contributes to the entrepreneurship and inequality literature by bridging two research spaces. It first uncovers the roles of a negative perception of the status quo in entrepreneurship, in addition to the established idea of a positive perception of an alternative option. It also suggests a novel explanation of the long-standing question of inequality reproduction by looking at whether and how inequality spreads via entrepreneurship.

Description克服外来者劣势是提高新兴市场企业国际化绩效的关键，本文从高管团队构建视角出发，采用多案例比较研究，提炼了新兴市场企业在国际化进程中实施高管团队构建的过程模型，并分析了不同模式与不同阶段的国际化推进机制。新兴市场企业国际化的高管团队构建将经历“配置-适应-融合”三个阶段，配置是企业根据国际化基础与扩张需求选拔内外部高管的阶段，适应是内外部高管成员互动、交流并进行成员动态调整的阶段，融合是内外部高管成员合为一体、形成新组织结构与组织制度的阶段。同时，根据高管团队的核心领导力量的不同分为“内部适应模式”与“外部培育模式”。内部适应模式下，企业从内部选拔具备创业精神与学习适应能力的管理者作为内派高管，并在国际市场引入兼具专业特长与综合管理能力的海外高管，通过内派高管持续学习吸收海外高管的经验知识，最终形成以内派团队为领导核心，实现战略一致、分工有效、利益协同的国际化经营团队。其中，内派团队的创业精神、学习适应能力、沟通协调能力是提高国际化绩效的关键。外部培育模式下，企业在具有国际出口基础的市场上选拔具备创业意愿、专业能力与行业声誉的海外高管，并在内外部团队并行发展的过程中，有意识地促进双方融合并培育海外高管的创业能力，最终形成以海外高管为领导核心，实现战略协同、资源互补、愿景一致的国际化经营团队。其中，海外高管的创业意愿与沟通协作能力是实现团队融合的关键。
此外，在不同高管团队构建阶段，外来者劣势缓解与国际化绩效提升的机制有显著差异。配置阶段，高管特征与国际扩张战略诉求匹配是提升团队绩效的关键；适应阶段，国际身份塑造、社会网络扩张与新能力构建是提高企业国际化绩效的关键；融合阶段，合作机制与治理机制等制度优化是实现团队融合与国际化持续扩张的关键。
本研究基于高管团队构建视角提炼了不同国际化经验基础的企业实现高管团队构建的动态过程模型，丰富了新兴市场企业国际化、高管团队构建等理论研究，为面临国际扩张的新兴市场企业提供一定启示。
