Mon ami Chris Carr, doyen du programme de CalPoly MBA et des cerveaux derrière le blog international d'excursion d'affaires fait autoriser un poteau très pensif, « En payant plus de comportement de changement et rendre quelqu'un plus moral ? » Pensif, mais faux.

Le poteau centre dessus si le paiement de plus t'obtient une meilleure exécution et/ou une meilleure éthique, et Chris joli indique beaucoup qu'il pas :

« Certains ont suggéré que nous pourrions résoudre le problème de trop de produits défectueux venant de Chine en payant plus aux fournisseurs chinois qui font cette substance. J'ai remis en cause cette prétention, et toujours.

Un example I a donné du fait le fil conducteur était que si le paiement des personnes davantage a résolu le problème, puis pourquoi payant toujours la plupart de bon résultat des employés dans la bonne exécution, mais exécution non supérieure ? (Voir le No. de commentaire. 29.) Et pourquoi payant à la plupart des mauvais employés plus d'argent distillateur obtient-ils te la mauvaise exécution, et à exécution non bonne ? (Si vous estimez que plus d'argent se corrèle avec un rendement plus élevé, venu voyez-moi après que vous ayez loué, contrôlé et mis le feu plus que peu de gens, et comparons les notes.) »

« Les produits ou les services d'étiquette privée sont typiquement ceux construits ou fournis par une compagnie pour l'offre sous la marque d'une autre compagnie. » - Wikipedia. This is the name of the game for China and for the most part, the products you buy here in the United States are not really manufactured by the name on the label. In some instances most of the big box or clothing stores you frequent have an inventory almost entirely made up of their own products under their own brand or multiple unaffiliated brands. This is not just a game for the big boys, this can be accomplished with the same everyday products under your own company’s label. Welcome to the club, we are about to pull back the curtain to reveal what you need to know in developing your own private labeled line of products.

Take notice that every manufacturer has its own guidelines, requirements and procedures for producing a private label product. Not all manufacturers offer this service or have the capability to laser-etch/carve logos etc. The first step is to source the product you like and then follow-up with the manufacturer opening a dialog about private label opportunities.

In the aftermath of the recent recalls of tainted and toxic China-made products, more than a few have speculated that manufacturers who have outsourced production operations there are no doubt rethinking their sourcing strategies and quality control processes, and, if some of the, shall we say, ‘more aggressive’ pundits are to be believed, even rethinking their continued presence there altogether. However, according to the results of a proprietary survey just completed by the smart cube, the pundits appear to be very much mistaken.

In the aftermath of the recent recalls of tainted and toxic China-made products, more than a few have speculated that manufacturers who have outsourced production operations there are no doubt rethinking their sourcing strategies and quality control processes, and, if some of the, shall we say, ‘more aggressive’ pundits are to be believed, even rethinking their continued presence there altogether. However, according to the results of a proprietary survey just completed by the smart cube, the pundits appear to be very much mistaken.

In fact, the majority of manufacturers surveyed are confident their supply chains are more than adequately secure to ensure the safety of their products. Indeed, nearly 80% of respondents (all of whom were manufacturers who currently manufactured their products in China) reported that they felt no need to review their supply chain activities in the wake of the well-publicized toy and toothpaste recalls. Further, these global manufacturers believe that the recent recall issues, while serious, are aberrations and not symptomatic of some more fundamental issue inherent within Chinese manufacturing. They appear to be on solid ground, as Mattel itself has apologized for initially putting the blame on its Chinese suppliers.
