填空题

由6个千万、4个万、8个百和5个一组成的数是（）。

单项选择题

“Core Competence”．通行的中译是“核心竞争力”，但它的准确译法应该是“核心能力”。所谓“核心能力”，不是公司独有的某种技术或工艺，也不是公司内部某个人或某个部门的能力，而是指公司整合不同的生产技能和技术后形成的一种综合能力，是公司集体学习、运作的结果核心能力是内在的、无形的、本源性的，它难以被竞争对手所复制。一个公司凭借核心能力才能持续为客户提供独特的价值和利益，才能不断催生新产品、开辟新市场。

了解了“核心能力”基本含义，我们就能发现目前将“Core Competence”译成“核心竞争力”的误区所在。人们常常说，人们关注的是我们的核心竞争力，某营销人员一年销售业绩上千万，它是公司的核心竞争力，丰富的劳动力资源是公司的核心竞争力。在这里，“核心竞争力”把注意力过多地引向了“渠道”、“劳动力资源”等外在的、有形的因素而忽略了核心能力的内在性与本源性。一个公司在市场上有竞争优势，并不一定表明该公司核心能力强，特别是当竞争的环境不公平，或当该公司采取不正当竞争手段的时候。

进一步说，当一个公司过分依靠外在因素在市场上表现出巨大的“竞争力”的时候，往往是这个公司的内在能力开始蜕化、衰减的时候。优越的资源对于一个公司、一个国家来说的确是一种福音，但同时也可能是一种“诅咒”。这让人想起西方学者关于“石油的诅咒”的说法。由于可以卖石油，一些富油的国家不追求高效的经济体制，不追求创新，他们就躺在石油上坐吃山空。对于这些国家而言，石油资源就成了一种诅咒，一个公司如果一味依靠外在优势进行竞争或只专注于当下的竞争(如打价格战)，就难以逃脱这种被“诅咒”的命运。

因此，公司必须从关注外在、表层、有形和现在，转向关注内在、深层、无形和未来。“核心能力”的概念体现的正是这种追求。核心能力的形成是一种由表及里的、动态的、精益求精的过程。公司必须注意保持核心能力的活力，否则也难逃“被诅咒的命运”。能使公司在较长一段时间内获得强大竞争优势的“核心能力”，一旦让公司形成路径依赖，也会产生核心能力硬化的问题。当环境发生巨变时，公司因难以应对而猝然倒下。这就是“核心能力的诅咒”。

“核心能力”概念体现的追求是（）。

A．外在、表层、有形和现在

B．关注内在、深层、无形和未来

C．由表及里的、动态的、精益求精的过程

D．“核心竞争力”
