素有日本“家电王国”之称的松下电器产业株式会社是日本制造业中一家颇具代表性的企业集团。在80多年的企业发展历程中,松下电器从一个设在街道里的小电器作坊,发展成为年销售额数百亿美元的家电生产王国。其成功被认为是日本式企业经营成功的典范。曾几何时,松下企业内部患上了大企业病,潜伏了足以毁灭这家庞大的企业集团的经营危机,这个危机终于在世纪之交爆发了。 Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd., which is known as Japan’s “home appliance kingdom,” is a representative enterprise group in Japanese manufacturing. In the course of more than 80 years of corporate development, Matsushita Electric has developed from a small electrical workshop located in the streets to a home appliance production industry with annual sales of tens of billions of dollars. Its success is considered to be a model for the success of Japanese-style companies. Once upon a time, Panasonic’s internal business was suffering from a major corporate disease, lurking enough to destroy the business crisis of this huge corporate group. This crisis finally broke out at the turn of the century.
