Download or read book Relational Capital in Business written by Rafał Drewniak and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-12-19 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of relational capital mainly refers to the value of the relationships a company creates with its stakeholders. These relationships inspired the authors to analyze their importance in the context of creating value for the enterprise and to explore the importance of leadership and communication in building relationships with the environment. Internal relational capital refers to the organization’s set of intellectual property, work processes and methods, executive procedures, databases, communication and information infrastructure. Employee relations and leadership activities become pivotal in this context, as improving relational competence and intra-organizational relational capital can foster building lasting relationships with external stakeholders. This book comprises two parts. The first is devoted to discussing the most important concepts and issues related to the essence and importance of relational capital in modern companies, characterizing methods and tools for building relational capital, while pointing to the role of leadership in shaping employee engagement and building intra-organizational relationships. The second part contains the results of empirical research on the importance of relational capital in organizations from the point of view of managers, and the features and scope of maintained relationships with stakeholders. This research allowed for the evaluation of ongoing relationships in terms of how they improved innovation, financial performance, or access to resources. The book will be especially valuable to researchers, academics, professionals and advanced students in the fields of organizational studies, employment relations and leadership.

Book excerpt: Relational capital plays a very vital role in an organization. In the present business era of Globalisation, Libralisation and Privatisation, the competition has increased manifold. The Darvin theory of 'survival of the fittest' has become a hard core reality. The business entrepreneur has to apply all his resources very intelligently for its survival and growth. It is very important to use intellectual capital and relational capital also to achieve the desired goals. The relational capital is an important organ of the intellectual capital. Therefore, business managers should intensify initiatives to encourage greater understanding and acceptance on relational capital elements, This is likely to increase organization performance.The relational view posits that the form, nature, and management of the relationship between two firms can provide a source of competitive advantage that can deliver “relational rents”.

Download or read book Relationship Economics written by Lindon J. Robison and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a 24/7 world and a global economy, there is no doubt that relationships impact virtually every economic transaction. In Relationship Economics, Lindon Robison and Bryan Ritchie argue that what needs to be understood is not just whether relationships matter (which, of course, they do), but also, how much, and in what circumstances they should matter. Providing a rigorous and measurable definition of the way that relationships among individuals create a capital, social capital, that can be saved, spent, and used like other forms of capital, Robison and Ritchie use numerous examples and insightful analysis, to explain how social capital shapes our ability to reduce poverty, understand corruption, encourage democracy, facilitate income equality, and respond to globalization. The first part of the book explains how social capital can be manipulated, stored, expended, and invested. The second part explores how levels of social capital within relationships influence economic transactions both positively and negatively, which in turn shape poverty levels, economic efficiency, levels and types of political participation, and institutional structures.

Download or read book Relationship Capital written by Carlos A. Raimundo and published by Longman Publishing Group. This book was released on 2002 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trading personal and family happiness for career success is no longer compatible with the new ethic of our times. But where is the right balance and how do you get there? Relationship Capital argues that acceptable corporate performance cannot be sustained without built-in notions of personal satisfaction and wellbeing. While acknowledging that an organisation's true wealth is its human capital, the author explains that it is the space between people - the health of our relationships - that determines our business success and quality of life. And these relationships are played out in the everyday corporate realities of meetings, delegating tasks, lines of reporting and performance management. Using dialogue from real coaching sessions, case studies, and an innovative role-playing technique called the Play of Life, Relationship Capital demonstrates how to: Live with busy working partners Tackle destructive corporate cultures Relate effectively at work and at home Avoid burnout Instigate Strategic Relationship Management Live 'for' something, not 'against' it Address issues facing business women Relationship Capital is a timely and practical exploration of what it means to be truly successful.

Download or read book The Dynamics of Intellectual Capital in Current Era written by Muhammad Shahbaz and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-06-01 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an authoritative, inter-disciplinary, and up-to-date survey of relevant concepts, research areas, and applications of intellectual capital. Until now, the literature had lacked a comprehensive analysis of intellectual capital (IC) in regard to sustainability, block chain, and other related technologies and virtual environments. This book shows the importance of intellectual capital for contemporary organizations: how it contributes to theories of the firm, how it affects organizational performance, how is it linked with the organizational ambidexterity, how it connects to the technological developments like block chain and digital technologies, and what would be its association with sustainability. Central to our thesis is the systemic nature of intellectual capital in organizations: how intellectual capital interacts with and complements other organizational resources and developments. This book also shows as to how applying the notion of intellectual capital to organizations requires us to consider how intangible forms of capital differ from more traditional forms, implying the need for a theory of firm that accommodates a concept of dynamic, heterogeneous intellectual capital. Although a lot has been written on IC, this book proves to be the first with scholastic and action-oriented perspective on as to how a firm can manage its IC to create value. This book also demonstrates as to how the subjective aspects of IC can be measured and what can be their strategic implications. A discussion on IC disclosure also appears in the latter part of the book. In doing so, this book reveals as to how the value creation of today’s businesses is driven by the IC. This book also introduces the readers to the new application of IC and its association with the contemporary disruptive technologies. This is a book for IC researchers and academicians who want to understand the diverse aspects of IC, for business managers who want to be at the cutting edge, for those early in their careers who seek a challenging new path, and for the top-level managers of the world who have their eye on the future.
