The operational context for higher education institutions has become increasingly competitive: universities have to compete on national and international markets for students, staff, funding and prestige. The emergence of various markets, market mechanisms and competition in higher education have become a well-established and much discussed fact, and have shaped the dynamics of the higher education arena (Enders & Jongbloed 2007; Texeira et al. 2004) In a global competition of knowledge societies, higher education institutions have been vested with the task of economic and social change, and are expected to contribute to the competitiveness of nationstates as well as their local communities.
SOCIAL CAPITAL AND BANK PERFORMANCE: AN INTERNATIONAL COMPARISON FOR OECD COUNTRIES
2008
Over the last few years the literature on social capital and bank efficiency analysis has expanded rapidly. We merge them by analysing how social capital affects bank efficiency in OECD countries. We use activity analysis techniques to measure efficiency, and social capital, which is related to the concept of generalized trust, is considered an environmental variable. Results suggest that the effect of social capital is more relevant for those financial institutions operating in low-social-capital environments. In these cases, inefficiencies are biased upwards, and controlling for social capital enables these banks to move up in the efficiency rankings.
INTELLECTUAL CAPITAL - KEY FACTOR IN ORGANIZATION DEVELOPMENT
2019
Intellectual Capital (IC) is an important component of an organization's capital, being the primary resource of development and also of value creation in almost all sectors of economic life. In order to be used and explored with maximum efficiency, intellectual capital must be an integral part of the organization's strategic development plan. In the literature, the concept of intellectual capital was accepted, in fact designating the triumph of economic reasons. The emergence and development of this concept increasingly emphasizes the correlation with the technological progress and the continuous development. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the value and importance of intellectual…
La production et valorisation des compétences sur le marché du travail : des approches néo-classiques à l'économie des conventions
2003
This research starts from human capital theory to study the production and valorization of competences in the labor market. Using the potentials and constraints of the neo-classical approach, the incorporation of other areas of economic science as well as other social sciences contributions are proposed. We believe that the key notions economics of education - human capital and wages, are necessary but they are inadequate to explain the level of individual competence or his level of remuneration. We propose a coherent integration of the theoretical and methodological tools of economics of education as well as of the economics of conventions and economics of human resources. And it includes …
Compétitrices mais pas toujours... Capital sportif et parcours de réussite d'étudiantes en STAPS
2014
Parmi les "compétences non académiques" qui peuvent infléchir des parcours scolaires et/ou professionnels, figure le capital sportif (entendu au sens de capital spécifique acquis au sein du champ sportif). Un certain nombre de travaux en sociologie et en histoire du sport se sont déjà intéressés à ce type de capital : en travaillant sur sa conversion dans des parcours professionnels suite à une carrière sportive de haut-niveau (Faure, J-M, 2010 ; Schotté & Fleuriel, 2011) ; en analysant son poids dans la construction des " vocations enseignantes " en éducation physique et sportive (Clément & Charles, 1997 ; Bret, 2009 ; Michon & Faber, 1987 ; Papin, 2013). Les stratégies d'étudiant-e-s qui …
Les compétences sociales et la réussite scolaire des élèves de cycle III. L'effet de l'accompagnement scolaire
2016
Differences of achievement in school, traditionally studied by Education researchers, can be analyzed in the light of skills and especially social skills. This scientific field is under construction but social skills still become a "must" for actors of the school system and for Educational Sciences. Through a multidisciplinary approach, this thesis proposes to question the link between social skills and academic achievement of students, taking into account factors related to their various socialization frameworks (family, school, extra-curricular). A reliable analytic tool of social skills (in a sample of 855 students from 7 to 12 years) allows to understand first of all, that inter and int…

Gestión y liderazgo del talento: las claves del éxito empresarial
2021
Desde hace ya unas décadas, se está trabajando con profundidad en la investigación científica sobre la evidencia en las empresas de la gestión del talento. A nivel profesional, ya han sido muchas organizaciones las que han dado el salto cualitativo hacia una nueva manera de enfocar los recursos humanos (RR. HH.). Principalmente porque esta nueva perspectiva está más vinculada tanto al negocio como a los objetivos empresariales, además de ser más aceptada por la mayoría de los profesionales. Desde los orígenes de la guerra del talento por Mckinsey hasta la actualidad, la investigación está analizando el papel de la gestión del talento en los resultados organizativos. En este sentido, Luna (2…
