This book was released on 2017 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta tesis doctoral pretende dar respuesta a preguntas tradicionales de la literatura de empresa usando herramientas de economía ampliamente aceptadas. Uniendo los campos de la contabilidad y la productividad, se aíslan distintos factores que determinan los cambios en productividad y se analiza su contribución sobre el desempeño financiero de la empresa, sobre el cambio de rentabilidad. Se hacen aportaciones metodológicas y se proporcionan nuevos instrumentos a los gerentes de empresas para la toma de decisiones conducentes a aumentar la competitividad. El primer capítulo propone una definición de incentivo económico potencial de los competidores para colaborar entre ellos: coopetición. Usando un enfoque no paramétrico basado en una medida del desempeño financiero (la rotación de los activos o ROA), se compara entre los estados de no coopetición y coopetición. Las ganancias potenciales de ROA en coopetición se descomponen en distintos factores. Usando la industria europea del automóvil entre 2000 y 2012, se genera una muestra de más de cuarenta y cinco mil casos de cooperación potencial entre dos plantas competidoras. Unos doce mil de esos casos presentan ganancias de ROA debidas a la coopetición, principalmente gracias a mayores ganancias de productividad asociadas a coopetición. Por su parte, las plantas pequeñas encuentran mayores incentivos económicos en la coopetición, pero únicamente si se involucran de forma activa. El capítulo ofrece algunas recomendaciones sobre la flexibilidad que la legislación europea que rige este tipo de acuerdos debería ofrecer. El segundo capítulo ofrece una nueva metodología para definir y medir el downsizing organizacional, considerando no solo los cambios en la cantidad de trabajadores sino todos los factores productivos de la organización. La definición se basa en cantidades teóricas costo-eficientes de las cantidades de inputs. Con este enfoque novedoso, se mide el efecto que el downsizing tiene sobre los cambios en productividad, que a su vez se puede relacionar con los cambios en ROA. Así, se quiere medir la contribución directa que tiene el downsizing organización sobre los cambios del desempeño económico. De forma natural, se extiende esa definición para el downsizing del trabajo, que está más cerca de las medidas parciales de downsizing que la literatura ha usado generalmente. Se ilustra esta metodología usando plantas de producción europeas entre 2000 y 2012. El downsizing organizacional no contribuyó a mejorar el ROA de esas plantas, mientras que el resto de componentes de productividad contribuyeron a empeorar el desempeño económico promedio durante todo el período. El tercer artículo parte de la metodología presentada en el segundo definiendo reestructuración organizacional: upsizing o downsizing. Se trata de analizar más profundamente las consecuencias en el desempeño de distintas opciones de reestructuración en la industria europea del automóvil. Se comparan de forma directa dos muestras opuestas de plantas que incrementan o reducen su tamaño organizacional para analizar las diferencias. Varias hipótesis comparan los efectos de la reestructuración de ambos grupos. Los resultados muestran diferencias significativas: mientras que las plantas que redujeron su tamaño vieron su ROA reducirse, las que incrementaron su tamaño lo vieron incrementarse. En promedio las plantas que aumentaron tamaño obtuvieron mejor contribución al desempeño financiero a través del efecto de la restructuración, el cambio técnico y el cambio de eficiencia (tres componentes del cambio de productividad). Para las empresas que redujeron su tamaño, las reducciones de los precios de los factores no compensaron las importantes pérdidas de productividad al reestructurarse.

Book excerpt: Los autores muestran por qué este principio se impone hoy día como el término central de la alternativa política para el siglo XXI: anuda la lucha anticapitalista y la ecología política mediante su reivindicación de los “comunes” contra las nuevas formas de apropiación privada y estatal. Además, articula las luchas prácticas con las investigaciones sobre el gobierno colectivo de los recursos naturales o de la información y designa formas democráticas nuevas que aspiran a tomar el relevo de la representación política y del monopolio de los partidos. Esta emergencia de lo común en la acción reclama un trabajo de clarificación en el pensamiento. El sentido actual de lo común se distingue de los numerosos usos que se ha dado a esta noción, ya sean filosóficos, jurídicos o teológicos: bien supremo de la ciudad, universalidad de esencia, propiedad inherente a ciertas cosas, incluso alguna vez el fin perseguido por la creación divina. Pero hay otro hilo que vincula lo común, no a la esencia de los hombres o a la naturaleza de las cosas, sino a la actividad de los hombres mismos: sólo una práctica de puesta en conjunto puede decidir qué es “común”, reservar ciertas cosas al uso común, producir determinadas reglas capaces de obligar a los hombres. En este sentido, lo común reclama una nueva institución de la sociedad por ella misma: una revolución.

Book excerpt: This book provides a diverse set of perspectives on the topic. It is very useful reading for anyone interested in understanding coopetition in multiple contexts. Devi R. Gnyawali, Virginia Tech, US As an original strategic management perspective, coopetition has hitherto been underexploited in analysing contemporary firm strategies and behaviours and, more generally, managerial practices and processes. This innovative book provides both theoretical insights and empirical evidence on coopetition. Coopetition shows great interpretive and normative potential and is likely to be an increasingly important tool. This book is one of the first key contributions in shaping and systematizing a novel coopetition agenda in the field of strategy. The book argues that coopetition is neither an extension of competition theory, nor an extension of cooperative theory. It is in fact a specific and distinctive research object, which calls for dedicated theoretical investigation to develop questions for theory, method, and managerial practice. This book provides both practitioners and academic scholars with a milestone that brings together an active community of researchers expressly mobilized around the creative in-depth scrutiny of coopetition. It will greatly appeal to researchers, scholars, and graduate students of management, business strategy competitive dynamics, and international business, as well as practitioners such as managers and consultants.
Download or read book Right Game written by Adam Brandenburger and published by Harvard Business Review Press. This book was released on 2009-10-01 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Business is like war: The best combatant wins while the worst loses, right? Not necessarily. Companies can succeed spectacularly without destroying others. And they can lose miserably after competing well. Exceptional businesses win by actively shaping the game they're playing, not playing the game they find. The Right Game shows you how to do this—by altering who's competing, what value each player brings to the table, and which rules and tactics players use. Since 1922, Harvard Business Review has been a leading source of breakthrough ideas in management practice. The Harvard Business Review Classics series now offers you the opportunity to make these seminal pieces a part of your permanent management library. Each highly readable volume contains a groundbreaking idea that continues to shape best practices and inspire countless managers around the world.
Download or read book Coopetition Strategy written by Giovanni B. Dagnino and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-09-10 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This innovative book portrays the state-of-the-art of coopetition strategy regarded as a compelling mindset to exploit entirely the potential of actors’ interdependencies (firms, governments, suppliers, customers, scientists and partners) in today’s global scenarios. It provides the rudiments for navigating an exploration journey into a virtually new and emergent management subfield. This volume presents three key distinctive features: it is the first attempt that delves systematically and rigorously into coopetition strategy and coopetitive behaviour; it clearly elucidates the contribution of coopetition to the advancement of strategic management and managerial practice; it is the outcome of the collective brains of several scholars, with diverse geographical roots and backgrounds, who cultivate original research on co-opetition strategy from a variety of perspectives (economic, managerial, political) and multiple methods (theory building, game-theoretical, experimental and inductive case-based inquiries). Looking into this volume, the reader will realize that, while the topic is at the beginning of its lifecycle, coopetition strategy has touched an important crossroads which solicits a more comprehensive and systematic assessment. If mindfully formulated and implemented, this hybrid strategic option is able to increase returns and generate value for shareholders, entrepreneurs, managers and coopetitors.

Download or read book Blind Spots written by Max H. Bazerman and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2012-12-23 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When confronted with an ethical dilemma, most of us like to think we would stand up for our principles. But we are not as ethical as we think we are. In Blind Spots, leading business ethicists Max Bazerman and Ann Tenbrunsel examine the ways we overestimate our ability to do what is right and how we act unethically without meaning to. From the collapse of Enron and corruption in the tobacco industry, to sales of the defective Ford Pinto, the downfall of Bernard Madoff, and the Challenger space shuttle disaster, the authors investigate the nature of ethical failures in the business world and beyond, and illustrate how we can become more ethical, bridging the gap between who we are and who we want to be. Explaining why traditional approaches to ethics don't work, the book considers how blind spots like ethical fading--the removal of ethics from the decision--making process--have led to tragedies and scandals such as the Challenger space shuttle disaster, steroid use in Major League Baseball, the crash in the financial markets, and the energy crisis. The authors demonstrate how ethical standards shift, how we neglect to notice and act on the unethical behavior of others, and how compliance initiatives can actually promote unethical behavior. They argue that scandals will continue to emerge unless such approaches take into account the psychology of individuals faced with ethical dilemmas. Distinguishing our "should self" (the person who knows what is correct) from our "want self" (the person who ends up making decisions), the authors point out ethical sinkholes that create questionable actions. Suggesting innovative individual and group tactics for improving human judgment, Blind Spots shows us how to secure a place for ethics in our workplaces, institutions, and daily lives.
