Change Management in a Pet Food Plant: A User-Centric Phenomenological Approach for a Digital Transition
No full textInternational audienceChange management represents a challenge in most organizations, especially when implementing fundamental tools for transitioning to an Industry 5.0 context, such as a newer and more modern enterprise resource planning (ERP). The current paper documents and investigates the change management while implementing an ERP in a plant for industrializing food in Brazil. This approach was phenomenological and focused on the users’ perspective, applying a questionnaire after the training and implementation of an ERP. The findings suggest users declared that they were ready to put energy into this change. However, at the same time, they also stated that they see no need to change. This raises doubts about how this change was implemented. The energy and desire might be there for the change, but it needs to be directed to the necessary targets through adequate guidance. Practical orientations for applications in similar contexts and further research directions are pointed ou
The safe haven, hedging, and diversification properties of oil, gold, and cryptocurrency for the G7 equity markets: Evidence from the pre- and post-COVID-19 periods
No full textInternational audienceThis study investigates the safe haven, hedging, and diversification properties of oil, gold, and two cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin and Ethereum, for equity investments in the G7 economies under different market conditions. Daily data covering the pre- and post-COVID-19 periods were employed, using the linear and nonlinear Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity models. The empirical evidence supports gold as an undisputable diversifier for equity investments in the G7 equity markets under all market conditions. Cryptocurrencies have a valuable safe-haven potential, particularly during the COVID-19 crisis. Furthermore, the suitability of the optimal hedge asset depends on market conditions and individual countries, where the traditional assets present the best hedge in the normal conditions, compared to the modern assets. However, in the stress periods, Bitcoin presents the best hedge for the stocks of the G7 European and the UK countries, although Ethereum is the optimal hedge for the U.S. and Canada. In contrast, oil exhibits a superiority in hedging Japanese equities during all market conditions
A Selecting Data Envelopment Analysis Approach Under an Onion Framework to Select Quality Service Criteria and Evaluate the Perception of Airport Concessionaires’ Users About Brazilian Airports
No full textInternational audienceTraditional methods of cost–benefit analysis in business administration usually measure the performance of activities exclusively in monetary terms, though the airport users’ perception of quality service is relevant to airlines’ operations. This paper aims to present a novel Onion framework for Selecting Data Envelopment Analysis (Selecting DEA) model to select multiple quality service criteria, compare, and evaluate the perception of airport concessionaires’ users about Brazilian airports through layers of analysis. This Onion framework consists of running the DEA again, in loop, where each loop is considered an onion layer, and each loop only with the criteria not selected for any of the Decision-Making Units (DMUs) in the previous loop, and to repeat it until all criteria is selected for at least one DMU and there are no more criteria for another layer. The first step was the compilation of the answers of 31 criteria, collected monthly from the Brazilian National Civil Aviation Agency (ANAC) for the main airports, deemed as Decision-Making Units (DMUs) in this study, from 2015 to 2017 for the empirical application (there are more measures than DMUs). The results showed 14 layers of the Selecting DEA, the last layer had most of the important quality service criteria. It can support decision-makers to select criteria to evaluate DMUs and support management best practices
Trends in the global research on the relationship between cleaner production and industry 4.0: a bibliometric literature review
No full textInternational audienceCleaner Production has emerged as a preventive environmental strategy integrated into production systems as part of the necessary changes. Much research on Cleaner Production has been carried out worldwide. However, research that addresses the use of Industry 4.0 technologies in Cleaner Production practices is still insufficient and unclear. Based on this scenario, a bibliometric analysis was conducted to explore research trends regarding Cleaner Production using Industry 4.0 technologies. Publication data were collected from the Scopus and Web of Science databases, and the time frame was 2011 to 2023. The results presented the journals, countries, themes, and studies with the most significant impact. In this study, 112 papers on the context of Cleaner Production in Industry 4.0 and its technologies were identified. The results obtained can help scholars better understand the research development trends in Cleaner Production using tools from Industry 4.0, detect unexplored areas, and provide direction for future research
Does E-government curb corruption? The moderating role of national culture: a machine learning approach
No full textInternational audiencePurpose – The study aims to investigate the relationship between E-government and corruption. It alsoexamines the moderator role of national culture through Hofstede’s dimensions on the association betweenE-government and corruption.Design/methodology/approach – In addition to panel regression techniques, the authors use the randomforest method to assess the order of importance of all significant variables in determining corruption. Thesample of this study consists of 55 countries during 2008–2020 period.Findings – The results show that E-government is negatively correlated with corruption. The authors alsofind that both economic and cultural variables play an important role in determining corruption. However,religion has no impact on corruption. The results can potentially assist regulators and policy-makers whentrying to control corruption as they should take into consideration the cultural background of citizens whenmaking rules and procedures that aim at reducing corruption.Originality/value – The current study uses random forests model, which allows the regression of variablesbased on the construction of a multitude of decision trees. The main contribution of using this model comparedto the other regression models used in prior studies is to extract the relative importance of each significantvariable. More precisely, it evaluates the rank of importance for each significant variable that drives corruptionrather than merely identifying variables that drive corruption regardless of their relative importance.Keywords Hofstede, E-government, Culture, Corruptio

How Much Stupidity Do Organisations Need? A Psychodynamic Perspective on Functional Stupidity
No full textInternational audienceHow much stupidity do organisations need to function effectively? The paradox coined by management researchers Spicer and Alvesson may seem baffling. According to these authors, organisations require a certain amount of uncritical obedience to function properly. The idea of ‘functional stupidity’ put forward by the authors to account for this phenomenon is no less ambiguous. In addition to overlooking the ethical implications of such a notion, it fails to provide a coherent explanation of its causes in organisations. Our proposal is based on the psychodynamics of work, founded by Christophe Dejours. We focus primarily on the subjective experience of work, which involves the worker’s body, and the way in which a whole theory of moral sense at work emerges from this experience. Adopting the form of an essay, we will support our argument with illustrative vignettes: stupidity will be interpreted here as the exact opposite of what the psychodynamics of work considers to be subjective intelligence at work, that is, ordinary sublimation. In so doing, we propose to extend the scope of the notion of organisational stupidity by adding a phenomenological, clinical and ethical dimension. We conclude by suggesting future avenues for research, through a ‘re-eroticisation’ of work

Blazing the trail: The role of digital and green servitization on technological innovation
No full textInternational audienceThis paper explores the effect of digital and green servitization on firms' technological innovation performances. Drawing on the Organisational Learning Capabilities (OLC) and Dynamic Capabilities theories, we conjecture that digital and green servitization represent a crucial learning mechanism for firms that translates into an ampler set of dynamic capabilities, including the ability to produce technological innovation. To test these hypotheses, we employ a Propensity Score Matching (PSM) approach and compare the innovation intensity between firms that engage in Digital, Green or both (digital and green) servitization and those that do not provide these services. Our evidence uncovers a positive relationship between digital servitization and firms' innovative performances. On the contrary, our results reveal that firms that offer green services are less likely to be highly innovative compared to those that do not provide this type of service and suggest the existence of positive complementarities between Digital and Green services in shaping firms' innovative performances. Additionally, we find that public innovation investments foster the effect of digital and green servitization on firms' ability to be highly innovative These results have significant implications for managers' and policymakers' ability to boost firms’ innovativeness during the transition toward a circular economy
