THE ROLE OF ONTOLOGICAL LEARNING LEVELS IN DEVELOPING DYNAMIC CAPABILITIES
2018
This paper explores the links between the fields of dynamic capabilities and organisational learning (OL), emphasising the role of the different ontological learning levels. The resource-based view (RBV) is pinpointed as the key origin of the dynamic capabilities view (DCV), in connection with OL and knowledge management. Ontological learning levels are identified as key OL stages. The knowledge-based view (KBV) of the firm is introduced as a key link between OL processes and dynamic capabilities development. Specifically, we propose a novel and integrative framework for understanding the role that the RBV, the DCV, OL, and the KBV, have, in an inter-connected way, have played in achieving …
O modelo da economia do bem comum: abordagem a partir da abordagem organizacional e análise bibliométrica
2019
Resumen El trabajo tuvo por objeto realizar una aproximación al modelo de la economía del bien común desde la organización de empresas, así como desde un análisis bibliométrico. Se realizó una comparación entre el enfoque empresarial de la economía del bien común y dife- rentes teorías organizativas: recursos y capacidades, stakeholders y creación de valor compartido. Mediante el análisis bibliométrico, se identificaron los trabajos publicados sobre la economía del bien común desde su surgimiento en 2010 hasta 2018, mediante búsqueda realizada en Web of Science y Dialnet. Se demuestra que su enfoque empresarial está relacionado con diferentes teorías de la organiza- ción de empresas y que a…
Efeitos da sustentabilidade e valor logístico nas relações entre empresas de transporte marítimo
2020
Resumen El objetivo de este trabajo fue analizar cómo la sostenibilidad (económica, social y ambiental), bajo el enfoque de triple línea base, afecta la calidad de servicio, el valor logístico y la satisfacción en empresas del sector marítimo. Se propone un modelo teórico que se contrasta con la información suministrada por una muestra de 50 responsables de empresas (transitarios, importadores y exportadores) en Panamá. La información se analiza mediante la estimación de regresión por mínimos cuadrados parciales, que permite confirmar el carácter multidimensional de la sostenibilidad y del valor logístico. Los resultados también confirman que las percepciones de los clientes sobre las inici…
Does a Responsible University Need a Third Mission?
2019
AbstractThere are different positions in the discourse about how the university can contribute to innovation, economic development and regional development. One position regards regional development as a new third mission. Another position argues for the integration of the regional role within the first two roles, which are teaching and research. Both positions are normative and rest on the assumption that the university is a homogeneous organisation and that transforming the role of the university into a regional development role is simple. However, if the university is a loosely coupled organisation, the transformation is more challenging. This chapter addresses this organisational challe…
Responsibility and intellectual property in synthetic biology: A proposal for using Responsible Research and Innovation as a basic framework for inte…
2015
Synthetic biology (SynBio) is an engineering view of biotechnology that has the potential to increase the number and industrial utility of biotechnological applications by implementing engineering principles such as standardization and modularity. The boundaries between SynBio, biotechnology, and metabolic engineering are not always clear, but assessing SynBio in a wider sense—that of modeling‐based biotechnology and/or “sophisticated” metabolic engineering—we find that a significant number of applications and research articles have been generated in the past few years [1]. One of the best‐known examples is that of a synthetic pathway for producing artemisinic acid, a precursor to the antim…
The contribution of dynamic marketing capabilities to service innovation and performance
2015
Innovation can become a sustainable competitive advantage for service firms. However, there is lack of empirical research on how marketing capabilities support innovation. This study differentiates between operational and dynamic marketing capabilities, the latter related to strategic marketing, marketing planning and market knowledge skills. Based on a sample of 152 service firms, the results show that operational marketing capabilities influence on those dynamic marketing capabilities. Strategic marketing and marketing planning capabilities impact positively on firm's performance while market knowledge capabilities impact positively on service innovation.
Entrepreneurial marketing: a comparative study
2013
This paper uses a comparative study to explore entrepreneurial marketing orientation in small software technology firms, in relation to firm growth. Entrepreneurial Marketing (EM) acknowledges the interface between entrepreneurship, marketing and innovation and, pursuance of customer value. Researchers acknowledge that firms adopting other strategic orientations combined with a market orientation are more likely to outperform their competitors. Currently, there are few comparative studies of knowledge-intensive technology firms and no comparative cross-country studies, which consider firm growth and orientation from the EM perspective. This paper addresses these issues by using an entrepren…
Bibliometric analysis of the international literature on open innovation and absorptive capacity
2016
Objecte: Comprovar si existeix, i si ha estat estudiada o demostrada, l’estreta relació, suggerida per alguns autors, entre innovació oberta i capacitat d’absorció. Disseny/metodologia: Anàlisi bibliomètrica sobre la Web of Science de la literatura internacional on es tracten ambdós termes simultàniament. Aportacions i resultats: S’ha demostrat que és un camp de creixent interès i que existeix una estreta relació entre innovació oberta i capacitat d’absorció. Limitacions: Els biaixos propis de utilitzar la base de dades elegida i els criteris de selecció aplicats fan possible la no inclusió d’algun article significatiu. Implicacions pràctiques: Conèixer que la capacitat d’absorció té relaci…
Including revision as a competence of undergraduate students in translation.
2022
El trabajo que se presenta a continuación muestra la experiencia de implantación de la revisión de traducciones como competencia en los estudios de traducción. Se aborda la introducción de la auto y la heterorrevisión de los textos traducidos como entrenamiento frente a la creciente demanda laboral de esta competencia, pero también como instrumento de mejora de las propias habilidades traductoras del alumnado. Para ello, se parte de la metodología del Plan de Innovación Docente La revisión de textos: recursos y estrategias docentes en el ámbito de la traducción y la asesoría lingüística, de la Universitat de València, que se aplica al alumnado de la asignatura Traducción general catalán-esp…
The Key Role of Human Resource Practices for the Promotion of Creativity and Innovation: A Spanish Case Study
2013
Management literature suggests that employee creativity can contribute substantially to organisational innovation, effectiveness and survival. In addition, the ability to innovate has also emerged as a basic strategic option. Innovation models express the need to implement specific human resource practices (HRP) for the development of skills, knowledge and innovation-oriented behaviours. Human resource practices can be extremely important when organisations intend to foster creativity and innovation which are key factors in competing effectively. With this aim in mind, we suggest that the existence of certain HRP such as training, performance appraisal and reward systems have a positive eff…
