Identificação e desenvolvimento de capacidades dinâmicas na inovação aberta
Get PDFA inovação aberta tem sido compreendida, como uma importante alternativa estratégica, para trazer o conhecimento externo, no sentido de reforçar os recursos e capacidades internas e, assim, a possibilidade de acelerar o processo de inovação a fim de gerar valor. Nesse sentido, é possível pensar sobre como a inovação aberta é compreendida na empresa? Quais são e como as capacidades dinâmicas podem ser usadas na inovação aberta? Portanto, identificar e desenvolver capacidades dinâmicas tornou-se necessário para aproveitar as oportunidades internas e externas de recursos, capacidades, conhecimentos e tecnologias para as empresas. Com isso, o objetivo deste estudo foi de compreender, como e quais capacidades dinâmicas são relacionadas a inovação aberta nas empresas. Para isso, foram utilizados os procedimentos metodológicos da Grounded Theory orientados pelo trabalho de Charmaz (2009), com o apoio do programa NVIVO® V11, para a coleta de análise de dados. O método comparativo constante foi utilizado para análise dos conjuntos de dados coletados e que foram codificados inicialmente, de forma aberta, seguido por codificação focalizada e, finalmente, pela codificação teórica na teoria fundamentada, para desenvolvimento da teoria substantiva. Os resultados possibilitaram elaborar a teoria substantiva baseada no fato de que: a inovação aberta é a estratégia que permeia o ecossistema para trazer o complemento no processo de inovação. As capacidades dinâmicas reveladas para a prática de inovação aberta foram: Mapeamento e de atualização de tendências no mercado; Análise e definição de tendências e de estratégias; Mapeamento dos recursos internos; Estabelecimento do que fazer de forma aberta; Mapeamento de potenciais parceiros; Estabelecimentos dos parceiros; Implementação da parceria; Monitoramento da interação em dois níveis; técnico – dentro do projeto e relacional – dentro e fora do projeto e Avaliação do resultado da interação e do relacionamento na parceria. Espera-se que os resultados deste estudo possam contribuir para o campo de gerenciamento estratégico expandindo o conhecimento sobre inovação aberta e capacidades dinâmicas e nas práticas do mundo empresarial.Open innovation has been understood as an important strategic alternative to bring external knowledge, in order to reinforce the internal resources and capabilities and thus the possibility of accelerate the process of innovation to generate value. In this way, it is possible think about how open innovation is understood in the firm? What are and how the dynamic capacities could be used in open innovation? Therefore, identify and develop the dynamic capabilities became necessary to utilize the internal and external opportunities of resources, capabilities, knowledges and Technologies for the firms. Thereby, the objective of this study was understood how and what dynamic capacities are related to open innovation in companies. For this, it was used the methodologic procedures of Grounded Theory guided by the work of Charmaz (2009), with support of the program NVIVO® V11 for data collect and analysis. The constant comparative method was used for the analysis of the sets of collected data, that was initially codified, in open form, followed by focused codification and finally by theoretical codification in the grounded theory, for development of the substantive theory. The results enabled elaborate the substantive theory based in the fact that: the open innovation is the strategy that permeates the ecosystem to bring the complement in the innovation process. The dynamic capabilities revealed for open innovation practice was: Mapping and updating trends in the market; Analysis and definition of trends and strategies; Mapping of internal resources; Establishment of what to do in open way; Mapping potential partners; Partners' establishments; Implementation of the partnership; Monitoring of the interaction in two levels; technical - within the project and relational - inside and outside the project and Evaluation of the result of the interaction and the relationship in the partnership. It is expected that the results of this study can contribute to the field of the strategic management by expanding the knowledge about open innovation and dynamic capabilities and in the business world practices
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Identification of dynamic capabilities in open innovation
No full textPurpose – This study aims to understand the interaction between capabilities inherent in open innovationand dynamic capabilities (sensing, seizing and transforming) as a source of competitive advantage.Design/methodology/approach – Qualitative method and grounded theory were used as guidelines fordata collection and analysis.Findings – The study identifies a set of capabilities in the practice of open innovation related to dynamiccapabilities, which indicates the importance of developing dynamic capability in the strategic management ofinternal and external knowledge in the company.Research limitations/implications – The number of interviewees approached herein do not allowgeneralizations, but the use of grounded theory through various strategies of data collection in the interviewsallowed the triangulation of the data, increasing the credibility, validity and quality of the research.Originality/value – This study presents capabilities identified in open innovation and their relationshipwith dynamic capabilities, identifying the importance of the dynamic capability in the strategic managementof internal and external knowledge in the company as a source of competitive advantage
COMPETITIVIDADE DA MADEIRA SERRADA DO ESTADO DE MATO GROSSO - BRASIL
Get PDFA produção madeireira mato-grossense possui inquestionável importância para o Brasil e o Mato Grosso; entretanto, ela ainda enfrenta problemas importantes que vêm impactando sua competitividade. O objetivo deste artigo é justamente o de identificar e avaliar os fatores de competitividade do primeiro processamento de transformação industrial da cadeia da madeira serrada em Mato Grosso como forma de propor políticas públicas e privadas voltadas ao incremento da competitividade deste sistema. A pesquisa retratada neste artigo utilizou os seguintes direcionadores de competitividade: tecnologia, insumos e infraestrutura, gestão das unidades de produção, ambiente institucional, estrutura de mercado e governança e sustentabilidade ambiental. A pesquisa revelou que os maiores problemas de competitividade da cadeia de produção agroindustrial estudada estavam ligados a questões ambientais e institucionais. Assim, grande parte das sugestões de ações de melhoria da competitividade situa-se no âmbito destes dois conjuntos de fatores
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
