Constructing knowledge maps of a manager's managerial logic by a text mining approach

The objective of this research is to represent the managerial logic of Mr. Yung-Ching Wang, the Chairman of Formosa Plastics Group (also known as the "God of Business" in Taiwan) through the construction of knowledge maps using a text-mining approach, including automatic key phrase extraction, term identification, document vector modeling, and a clustering method named growing hierarchical self-organizing map (GHSOM). A collection of speeches given by Mr. Wang in various occasions is used to construct the topic maps, representing his managerial logic. The maps can be browsed on the web site (http://synteny.iis.sinica.edu.tw/kmap/m_logic).
