碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 工業工程與管理學程碩士班 === 91 === In recent years rapid growth of the internet and high technology industry has accelerated interaction among people from different fields and levels on a wide variety of subjects and activities. With this change the adequacy of many well- established rules that have governed human interaction for ages is suddenly in question. The same can be said for enterprises. There are more and more world class companies and financial groups facing severe challenges in the midst of market globalization due to lack of clear direction. Companies that cannot adapt to the changes fail to compete with others and have become the victims of modernization. It is becoming increasingly more difficult in current business environment for enterprises to reconcile the pace at which business environment is evolving based on exist practices. Past effort to promote a company’s productivity and uplift its competitiveness, although it remains as the driving force for a company to move forward, is now hardly enough to guarantee its long-term success. Therefore for business owners and people working in a business environment, it is worthwhile to take a step back to understand the nature of the business management and to explore if there is other step that needs to be taken. In this paper we study the impact of vitality on corporations and propose a “Vitality Index” model for the enterprises to evaluate their performances from a different approach. It is our goal that understanding of the vitality index will help investors and corporate management recognize the company’s operating bottlenecks, identify their root causes, and eventually improve the company’s performance and its business structure.
