The question of how to improve employees' adaptive performance in dynamic environments has become a hot issue in organizational management. Although previous research has focused on the antecedents of adaptive performance, less attention has been paid to the impact of mentoring. Based on the conservation of resources theory and regulatory focus theory, this study examines the impact mechanism and boundary conditions of mentoring on protégés' adaptive performance. In addition, through an empirical analysis of 269 samples, this study finds that mentoring has a significant positive impact on protégés' adaptive performance. Thriving at work plays a full mediation role between mentoring and protégés' adaptive performance, and protégés' promotion focus moderates the relationship between mentoring and thriving at work such that the relationship is stronger among protégés with a higher promotion focus. Furthermore, the indirect relationship between mentoring and adaptive performance is stronger when protégés have a high level of promotion focus.
With the increasing competition among enterprises, modern enterprises are facing a complex internal and external situation, which requires enterprises to strictly control their own cost management. The cost management activities of enterprises have great potential. Through effective cost control, we can strictly control the cost management of each link, which can reduce our own costs and improve their competitiveness. Through Porter value chain model, enterprises can control their own strategic cost, which caters to the competitive environment of enterprises. Through the value chain analysis tool of strategic management, we can better calculate the cost management of value chain, which can break through the limitation of traditional cost management. Through the whole life cycle, we can save production, R &, D and design, raw material procurement, production and processing costs, which can complete the whole process control of the value chain. Firstly, this paper analyzes the concept of Porter’s value chain model. Then, this paper analyzes the strategic cost management based on value chain. Finally, some suggestions are put forward.
