When China reformed state-owned enterprises, it tried a new approach to choosing managers: it put managerial jobs up for auction. The bids for the jobs consisted of promises of future profit streams that the managers would generate and then deliver to the state. In cases where the incumbent manager was the winning bidder, firm productivity tended to increase dramatically. When outside bidders won, there was little productivity improvement. If incumbent managers were not generally more qualified, how can you explain this result?

    Answer: The explanation is provided below

    Explanation:

    An outsider tend to overbid with a eye to get the job while, an insider manager bids a realistic performance that is achievable. An insider manager understands the factors which affect the organization's performance and then tries to take control of the factors.

    People make or break organizations and there is a greater chance of the insider getting the support and cooperation of the employees in comparision to outside bidders. Also, an insider manager has a prospective that is long term with regard to his or her association with the enterprise while an outsider may come and then realize that he doesn't like the organization and then leave for a better enterprise.

    Therefore internal managers are a better prospect of being given the responsibility to manage the enterprise.

    A stranger tends to bid excessively to get the job. In contrast, the internal manager offers realistic, achievable performance. The internal manager understands the factors that influence the organization's performance and tries to take control of it. There is a greater chance that an insider will get employee support and cooperation than strangers. Insider manager has been in the organisation for and already know the rules that guide the company, The Dos ans Donts ... A stranger have lilttle or no knowledge about how the company is run and can choose to stay or he will go to a better company. Therefore, internal managers are in good position for taking responsibility for running the welfare and activites of a company.
