El Área metropolitana de Valencia en el sistema global de ciudades: El impacto de la crisis económica en la red de relaciones financieras de las empr…
2015
El proceso de globalización ha hecho que la evolución económica y social de las ciudades se vea crecientemente condicionado por los flujos y conexiones transnacionales. Entre estas conexiones, las relaciones de propiedad-filiación de las empresas multinacionales son uno de los factores más importantes en la integración de las ciudades en la globalización. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar el impacto que la crisis económica ha tenido sobre estas redes en el caso del Área Metropolitana de Valencia, un centro de segundo nivel en la jerarquía urbana española y en las redes económicas mundiales, que ha sido duramente golpeado por los efectos de la crisis desde 2008. A partir del análisis d…
The Institutionalization of Political Risk Assessment by Chinese Multinational Firms
2021
Some researchers have claimed that Chinese firms are impervious to political risk, calling into question the institutionalization of political risk by Chinese firms. Building on resource dependence theory and the literature on non-market strategies, this study finds significant impact by ownership structure, firm scale, and the degree of internationalization on the institutionalization of political risk assessments (IPRA) by Chinese firms. As such, state-owned firms and larger firms cultivate a higher level of IPRA. We find a positive impact of a firm’s scale and scope of internationalization, but insignificant impact of depth of internationalization.
: Difficulties ans risks of interSME cooperation : solutions provided by private-equity firms
2016
L’article analyse les difficultés et risques auxquels font face les petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) lors de la formation de coopérations interfirmes, et les rôles joués par les sociétés de capital-investissement dans leur diminution. Les PME font principalement face à une asymétrie informationnelle et une incertitude accrues en comparaison aux entreprises plus grandes. Les sociétés de capital-investissement permettent de réduire ces deux facteurs et d’instaurer une situation de confiance entre les futurs cocontractants, ce qui évite l’échec de la transaction. Une étude de cas multiples à visée infirmationniste menée sur le marché français du capital-investissement détaille ces princip…
La collaboration avec la recherche universitaire vue de l’entreprise. Quelques résultats d’enquêtes dans les secteurs des technologies optoélectroniq…
2011
Analysant les caractéristiques de la demande de connaissances externes des entreprises en fonction de leurs régimes d’innovation, l’article s’intéresse plus particulièrement au rôle donné à la recherche universitaire dans les stratégies d’innovation des entreprises. Les résultats tirés d'enquêtes auprès d’entreprises britanniques et françaises, développant des composants optoélectroniques, mettent en évidence l’existence de deux catégories de recherche : la R-D sur financement propre qui est liée aux objectifs à court terme, et la R-D à moyen et long terme qui dépend du financement externe. La participation de la recherche universitaire à la recherche à court terme de l’entreprise prend la …
Managing Talent for Organisational Learning
2011
[EN] The phenomenon of globalisation and the intensification of change mean that firms increasingly require an internal structure that fosters the genesis and application of new knowledge. If the firm's objective is to achieve continuous learning then organisational variables and managerial purpose through talent management are essential for access to superior knowledge assets. This study takes an in-depth look at the relationship between a political phenomenon (talent management) and a natural one (organisational learning and/or knowledge creation) within a particular organisational framework. The aim is to obtain evidence of the effect of organisational variables on learning and knowledge…
Policies to enhance social development through the promotion of SME and social entrepreneurship: a study in the Colombian construction industry
2016
[EN] The intent of this research is to propose and analyse a set of policies in the construction industry to enhance social development. First, the paper shows the connections between the development of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and social entrepreneurship (SE), the reduction of the leakage, and then the generation of social value (SV) for sustainable regional development. For that, the article analyses briefly the literatures on SE and leakage, and focuses on the relevance of SME and social entrepreneurs as promoters of SV creation and development. Second, the paper proposes a framework and proposes a set of 20 policies aimed to reduce leakage, reinforce SMEs and entrepreneurship…
The financial performance of listed companies in pursuit of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)
2021
[EN] Socially responsible companies whose values are aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) contribute to creating wealth and long-term economic and social value. This alignment leads to a competitive advantage based on the triple bottom line that enhances financial performance. In this paper, fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) is used to identify the configurations of conditions that lead to high or low financial performance (return on equity) for a sample of companies in the IBEX 35. Firms should adopt business models that embrace the SDGs because sustainability-based models can ensure not only the present but also the future of generations…
ACTIVITIES TO PROMOTE THE SELF-LEARNING OF THE EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION STUDENT OUTCOME
2018
[EN] Universities all over the world are implementing a competence-based type of teaching and learning to guarantee certain student learning outcomes at the end of the studies. To reach these student outcomes, active methodologies should be included in teaching practice at the same time that carefully designed rubrics might be used for the evaluation of the students. Despite the fact that teachers introduce more and more authentic tasks in the classroom, these activities are not still well employed by all the University teaching staff. The goal of this work is to propose a guideline of activities to promote the self-learning of the effective communication outcome by the students. For that p…
Empleo de TIC y efectos relacionales en la cadena logística

Las organizaciones desarrollan sus actividades en un entorno crecientemente cambiante, donde las innovaciones tecnológicas tienen un papel clave en las relaciones entre empresas participantes en la cadena de suministros. Desde esta percepción, el objetivo de este trabajo consiste en analizar cuál es el papel de la implantación de tecnologías de la información y comunicación (TIC), y cómo dicha implantación, junto a la orientación al cliente de la organización, afecta al desarrollo de relaciones basadas en la confianza y el compromiso entre los miembros del canal de aprovisionamiento. El contraste de las hipótesis planteadas se realiza a través de la técnica de modelos de ecuaciones estructu…
Facilitating organisational learning through teamwork-based knowledge management: evidence from Spain
2015
[EN] In the context of organisational learning optimisation through knowledge management policies, it is essential to pay careful attention to teamwork design and dynamics. Having these ideas in mind, the aim of our paper is to empirically study whether a number of knowledge management policies related to team design and dynamics facilitate organisational learning processes across the different ontological levels (individual, group, and organisational-institutional). Hence, we propose a model linking teamwork-design based on knowledge management policies (including the sub-dimensions of team composition, team bonding, and team bridging) and organisational learning. We test this model in a s…
