亨利·福特《我的生活与工作》· My Life and Work · 领导

This policy does not agree with the general opinion that a business is to be managed to the end that the stockholders can take out the largest possible amount of cash. Therefore I do not want stockholders in the ordinary sense of the term--they do not help forward the ability to serve. My ambition is to employ more and more men and to spread, in so far as I am able, the benefits of the industrial system that we are working to found; we want to help build lives and homes. This requires that the largest share of the profits be put back into productive enterprise. Hence we have no place for the non-working stockholders. The working stockholder is more anxious to increase his opportunity to serve than to bank dividends.

白话

福特说,他的政策不符合那种认为企业就该为股东赚取最大现金的普遍观点。因此他不想要传统意义上的股东,因为那些股东无助于提升服务能力。他的志向是雇佣更多人,尽可能传播工业体系的好处,帮助建设生活和家庭。这要求把大部分利润重新投入生产性事业。所以他不欢迎不干活的股东。在他看来,干活的股东更关心如何增加服务机会,而不是把分红存进银行。这体现了他以服务为导向、而非以股东利益最大化为导向的经营理念。

上下文

福特在《我的生活与工作》中批评传统股东至上主义,提出企业应服务于员工和社区。

今日一问

你的企业或组织,是否把服务他人和建设生活放在单纯追求股东回报之上?
