The Management Transformation of Huawei

Huawei has become China’s most prominent multinational company and a leader in the ICT sector. The book examines the management transformation of Huawei from the firm’s inception in 1987 until 2019. What makes Huawei interesting is its rate of growth and the level of detail in which we can observe not only the creation of organizational routines but also the breaking of routines across most the major functional areas—Management, Product Development, HR, Supply Chain, Finance, R&D, Intellectual Property, and International. This makes Huawei an ideal case to advance the theory of routines and dynamic capabilities to change routines. The chapters in the book cover all major change initiatives the firm undertook since 1996 to import best practices from the West with the help of consultants. The insights presented in the book will be particularly interesting for academics in the field of strategy, management, and business history.
