Travelling along the public service co-production road: a bibliometric analysis and interpretive review
No full textA bibliometric analysis and an interpretive review have been undertaken to advance the debate on public service co-production and public value co-creation, conceiving them as the cornerstones of public service logic. The systematization of 114 articles, which were sorted in 4 clusters through bibliographic coupling, revealed a 'new normality' of public service delivery relying on citizens' involvement as value co-creators. Citizens and regular producers should be empowered to act as partners in co-designing and co-delivering public services. However, the interaction between citizens and regular producers generates value tensions, which should be addressed to avoid backlash on public value generation

No full textKnowledge Management in the Fourth Industrial Revolution: Mapping the Literature and Scoping Future Avenues
No full textDue to increased competitive pressure, modern organizations tend to rely on knowledge and its exploitation to sustain a long-term advantage. This calls for a precise understanding of knowledge management (KM) processes and, specifically, how knowledge is created, shared/transferred, acquired, stored/retrieved, and applied throughout an organizational system. However, since the beginning of the new millennium, such KM processes have been deeply affected and molded by the advent of the fourth industrial revolution, also called Industry 4.0, which involves the interconnectedness of machines and their ability to learn and share data autonomously. For this reason, the present study investigates the intellectual structure and trends of KM in Industry 4.0. Bibliometric analysis and a systematic literature review are conducted on a total of 90 relevant articles. The results reveal 6 clusters of keywords, subsequently explored via a systematic literature review to identify potential stream of this emergent field and future research avenues capable of producing meaningful advances in managerial knowledge of Industry 4.0 and its consequences
Unpacking business, management, and entrepreneurship education online: Insights from a hybrid literature review
No full textBusiness, Management, and Entrepreneurship (BME) education uncovers a valuable learning space within the online environment. Scholars and practitioners have embraced distinctive perspectives to exlpore BME education online. This led to a fragmentation of approaches and practices aimed at recontextualising BME education online. The article intends to overcome such fragmentation. For this purpose, it undertakes a hybrid literature review, consisting of a bibliographic analysis to map the scholarly debate on BME online education, and an interpretive review to systematize contemporary scientific knowledge. Drawing on a knowledge core of 106 articles, six clusters were identified through bibliographic coupling. The research streams embedded by the clusters deal with the challenges faced in the implementation of BME online education, such as the arrangement of online learning spaces, the promotion of collaboration among learners, the empowerment of instructors to address the learners’ evolving needs, and the structuring of virtual educational institutions. Tailored interventions are required to avoid that BME online education paves the way for anomic learning. Virtual learning spaces should enrich interpersonal exchanges, engaging learners in co-creating value with instructors. Digital technologies enact unprecedented opportunities for online learning, leveraging rich social connections and expanding the reach of educational activities
The Role of Entrepreneurial Attitudes and Behaviors in Smart Manufacturing
No full textThe fourth industrial revolution has brought into the competitive arena many challenges. This new era of digitalization and machine-machines interaction with big flows of data has been mainly analysed from a technical and functional perspective. Nevertheless, this changes will heavily impact also on the human capital that works in the industrial and manufacturing sector especially, where the smart manufacturing approach is always more present. For this reason, this paper tries to address the main challenges that will be soon faced by this type of workers that need to become knowledge (or knowledge-based) workers. We have built a theoretical model that may help micro-mechanisms through which knowledge workers with higher entrepreneurial attitudes and behaviours may perform better and thus they will be actively sought by organizations in the future. We infer that this attitudes and behaviours will directly benefit the individual performance in terms of higher knowledge creation. In addition, using the knowledge-based view theory, we explain how this increased performance may also improve organizational processes specifically the general knowledge acquisition of the firm.

Entrepreneurial approach and open innovation. A bibliometric and literature review
No full textSince the first definition of Open Innovation the indivisible relationship between open innovation and entrepreneurship has drawn a lot of research attention, however, the exact mechanisms by which openness benefits entrepreneurs and vice versa are not yet fully understood. Based on this consideration, this study aims to offer an overview of the evolution of the literature regarding the OI-entrepreneurship relationship published over the last decades. We use a bibliometric analysis coupled with a systematic literature review were performed over a data set of 106 peer-reviewed articles published from 2005 to 2020. The authors discovered the existence of five well-polarized clusters with the following thematic focusses: entrepreneurial opportunity for OI, strategic partnership opportunity for OI, organizational opportunity for OI, digital opportunity for OI, and institutional opportunity for OI. The authors investigated each thematic cluster by reviewing the most impactful contributions within them to create a framework which my highlights future avenues for the whole topic
What makes work smart in the public sector? Insights from a bibliometric analysis and interpretive literature review
No full textDebate on smart working in the public sector is rich, yet poorly systematized. The article fills this gap through a domain-based literature review. A bibliometric investigation enabled us to cluster 72 relevant papers in 5 research streams based on bibliographic coupling. An interpretive approach was undertaken to analyse key themes addressed within and across the clusters. A blurred account of smart working emerged. Despite the triggers fostering the transition towards smart working, its contents are ambiguous. Smart work arrangements fall short in augmenting the individual control over job and impair interpersonal relationships at work, paving the way for dumb work
Aiming at inclusive workplaces: a bibliometric and interpretive review at the crossroads of disability management and human resource management
No full textInclusive workplaces rely on the joint optimization of disability management and human resource management. However, disability management has been predominantly investigated as an independent issue, overlooking its interplay with human resource management. The article delivers a bibliometric and interpretive review of the scholarly debate falling at the crossroad of disability management and human resource management, mapping the state of the art of this study domain. Departing from a knowledge core of 91 papers, 6 research streams were identified through bibliographic coupling. They account for the evolution of disability management from a fix-it initiative aimed at fostering return to work of people with disability towards a holistic management approach targeted at inclusiveness. Aligning the hard and the soft sides of disability management and embedding it in the organizational culture are crucial to enact inclusive workplaces and make organizations able to engage people with disability at work
