The governance role of shareholders and board of directors on firm performance: an eclectic governance-performance model

PurposeThis study aims to examine the governance role of shareholders and board of directors in determining firm performance through an eclectic multi-theoretic model that integrates structure and incentive functions of agency theory and capability aspect of the resource-based view.Design/methodology/approachThe research model uses a large panel data set of 2,364 UK firms over the period 2000–2010 and uses alternative specifications of the model to improve robustness.FindingsThe results show that the industry experience of major shareholders as a proxy for shareholder capability has a significant positive impact on investee firm performance. The findings also reveal that the lock-in effect of the largest shareholder has a positive impact on performance, whereas the monitoring effectiveness of shareholders is not associated with ownership concentration. Moreover, the results indicate the underlying capabilities of the board of directors and their impact on corporate performance – particularly, the interlocking directorates of executives have a positive impact on firm performance but those of non-executives have a negative one. However, the previous directorship experience of non-executives has a positive impact on performance.Research limitations/implicationsThis study presents a more comprehensive and complete understanding of the governance-performance relationship beyond the narrow or partial explanations provided by single-theory-based studies or those of investigating the effect of various governance tools separately.Practical implicationsThis study provides more insights into the capability dimension of shareholders and the role of incentives in motivating shareholders to exercise stronger oversight on the management rather than just using ownership concentration. Hence, the study can serve as valuable guidance for investors, corporate managers and policymakers.Originality/valueTo the best of the knowledge, this is the first comprehensive study that uses an eclectic philosophical approach, integrating the agency theory and resource-based view, to not only examine the impact of board of directors but also investigate the governance role of shareholders in modern corporations to understand how shareholders acquire the requisite skills and information, the best practices and processes, and ultimately use the scarce and inimitable resources that help investee firms in improving their performance.

Regional Knowledge Capabilities, Entrepreneurial Activity, and Productivity Growth: Evidence from Italian NUTS-3 Regions

Knowledge has replaced labor as the key factor for productivity growth in innovation discourse. The Knowledge Spillover Theory of Entrepreneurship (KSTE) provides the theoretical foundation to bridge the gap between knowledge and productivity growth. The way regional knowledge actually contributes to productivity growth requires a theoretical explanation because knowledge capability is an indirect and intangible input for regional productivity growth. Previous research has shown that entrepreneurship alone is insufficient to drive productivity improvements. We examine how knowledge capabilities lead to meaningful growth outcomes of new firms in a region. This study examines the determinants of productivity growth by analyzing the factors of entrepreneurship and knowledge capabilities at the regional level, especially considering the moderating effect of entrepreneurship between knowledge and regional growth; by comparing different dimensions of local knowledge capabilities; and by aggregating the contribution of knowledge capabilities and entrepreneurship to productivity growth at the regional level. The empirical analysis is performed on Italian NUTS-3 regions by utilizing an integrated data set combining patent data from the EPO PATSTAT database, and regional data from Eurostat regional statistics. This study makes two main contributions to the KSTE literature by linking knowledge, entrepreneurship, and regional growth and by providing empirical results on different aspects of regional knowledge capability. Our findings identify which types of local knowledge capabilities are more important and how related innovative activity interacts with entrepreneurial activity, elucidating the mechanisms by which knowledge affects labor productivity through entrepreneurship.

Innovative performance of project teams: the role of organizational structure and knowledge-based dynamic capability

PurposeThis study aims to investigate the relationship between knowledge-based dynamic capability and organizational structure on team innovative performance in Brazilian industrial companies.Design/methodology/approachThis study is based on data from a survey of 262 respondents from 65 companies in the Brazilian industrial sector with project teams and followed the partial least squares approach to model the structural equation that was used for data analysis.FindingsThe results of the study show that mechanical structures with a high degree of formalization and centralization have a negative impact on knowledge-based dynamic capability and integration has a positive relationship with dynamic capability. Moreover, the research shows that project team innovative performance is directly affected by knowledge generation and combination capability; however, knowledge acquisition/absorption does not interfere with project team innovative activity.Practical implicationsThis study contributes to the managers of firms in the industrial sector by analyzing how the characteristics of organizational structure impact dynamic capability and project team innovative performance. The results of this study indicate that more mechanical structures have more difficulty in developing knowledge-based dynamic capability in the context of project teams.Originality/valueThis study advances the concept of knowledge-based dynamic capability from the firm level to the project team level. This study accesses a research gap that characterizes organizational structure as an antecedent of dynamic capability, analyzing the impact of organizational structure on the dimensions of dynamic capability and of the latter on project team innovative performance.

Application of an alternative framework for measuring progress towards SDG 7.1

Global progress towards Sustainable Development Goal 7.1: ‘By 2030, ensure universal access to affordable, reliable and modern energy services’ continues to be measured by mere access to energy carriers, using binary indicators that inadequately reflect the multi-dimensional nature of the goal. In this work, we describe and apply an alternative framework to track critical dimensions of energy provisioning and household capabilities that aligns more closely with the original SDG 7.1 target wording. We provide new empirical evidence from ten countries describing the extent to which the current indicators underestimate energy poverty and neglect decent access. We find that households officially counted as having access to modern energy sources, in many instances, still benefit only from minimal energy services, receive unreliable energy supply, and struggle with being able to afford energy services they need to enjoy a decent standard of living. We also find that poorer households are systematically over-represented in this population and are more likely to suffer multi-dimensional constraints when counted served by the current indicators. Notwithstanding challenges in data collection and standardisation, we argue that we must improve on binary indicators for measuring progress towards SDG 7.1, to pave the way for agenda setting and policy development that recognises and addresses broad inequities in household capabilities to use modern energy towards achieving a decent living standard.

Theoretical Exploration of Supply Chain Viability Utilizing Blockchain Technology

As a disruptive and innovative technology, blockchain will significantly revolutionize how organizations produce and operate as global rivalry intensifies. The global COVID-19 outbreak, combined with the growing complexity of supply chain networks, has exposed supply chains’ vulnerability to disruption. Therefore, improving the supply chain viability is the primary way to deal with the risk of supply chain disruption. Using the method of literature research, this conceptual paper systematically reviewed and sorted out relevant literature, extracted corresponding capabilities, and put forward relevant research propositions. From the perspective of the resource-based view and resource-dependent theory, this study investigates specific dimensions of the blockchain-enabled supply chain capability: connectivity, network capability, and supply chain reconfiguration and the impact of external resource-dependent capability on the viability of the supply chain. The propositions show that the blockchain-enabled supply chain capability, and external resource-dependent capability will positively impact supply chain viability. It is expected to assist supply chain firms in implementing blockchain technology to increase supply chain viability and improve their capacity to achieve sustainable supply chain development during the crisis.

Capability listing and functioning achievements of indigenous people of a developing country: testing the moderating effect of the use of ICT

There is a gap in the existing literature in exploring comprehensive capability needs and degree of functioning achievements of indigenous people living in developing nations. This study offers a nine-dimensional 43-item statistically valid, and reliable model that captures capability and functioning achievement indicators as perceived by the indigenous people of Bangladesh. Also, the paper investigates the extent to which the impacts of capability dimensions on functioning achievements change concerning the degree of use of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) by the indigenous community. The methodology of the study is based on 1741 primary data collected by way of a survey and analyzed through Structural Equation Modeling. Results revealed that effects of seven out of eight capability dimensions on functioning achievements had improved significantly due to the higher use of ICT. The study also revealed that frequent use of ICT could reduce the degree of vulnerability among the indigenous poor.

Perceived changes in capability during the COVID-19 pandemic: A Swedish cross-sectional study from June 2020.

Aims:Measures against COVID-19 potentially impact quality of life in different ways. The capability approach by Amartya Sen with a broad and consistent framework for measuring quality of life is suited to capture the various consequences. We aimed to examine (a) whether individuals experienced change in 10 capability dimensions during the first half of 2020, (b) which dimensions were affected most, and (c) whether changes were unequally distributed in terms of gender, education, income, geography, housing, living situation and place of birth.Methods:We assessed self-reported capability change in Sweden in 10 capability dimensions in a cross-sectional online survey among 500 participants on a five-item Likert scale. We analysed the distribution of answers by comparing the balance of positive and negative perceived changes and used mixed effects logistic regression to examine associations with background characteristics of the participants.Results:Reported perceived negative changes outweighed positive changes, and a higher proportion stated negative perceived changes if they also stated having low capability in the same dimension. In the capabilities of financial situation, political resources and health, the proportions of perceived negative change were highest. Odds for perceived negative change compared to no or positive change were higher for lower incomes, living in smaller municipalities compared to living in medium-sized municipalities, being born outside Europe, living in the south of Sweden, and renting instead of owning housing.Conclusions:Self-reported negative capability change, and associated inequalities related to socioeconomic position, place of birth and regional residence should be of concern for policymakers.

DYNAMIC CAPABILITIES AND PERFORMANCE OF HOSPITALITY FIRMS IN SOUTH AFRICA: THE MEDIATING EFFECT OF INNOVATION

Dynamic capabilities describe a firm’s ability to build, integrate and reconfigure internal and external competencies to address rapidly changing environments and improve firm competitiveness. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of four dimensions of dynamic capabilities (sensing, learning, integrating, and coordinating) on the performance of hospitality firms. In addition, the study examined the mediating role of product innovation in the relationship between dynamic capabilities and performance. The study adopted the quantitative research design and the cross-sectional survey method was used for data collection. The Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modelling was used for data analysis. Based on a dataset of 135 respondents, the results indicated that sensing, learning and coordinating significantly affect the performance of hospitality firms. Innovation mediates the relationship between sensing and learning capabilities and performance. Theoretical and managerial implications are discussed. The provision of seminars and training on dynamic capabilities and innovation to top management and employees is important.

Assessment of process capabilities in transition to a data‐driven organisation: A multidisciplinary approach

The ability to leverage data science can generate valuable insights and actions in organisations by enhancing data-driven decision-making to find optimal solutions based on complex business parameters and data. However, only a small percentage of the organisations can successfully obtain a business value from their investments due to a lack of organisational management, alignment, and culture. Becoming a data-driven organisation requires an organisational change that should be managed and fostered from a holistic multidisciplinary perspective. Accordingly, this study seeks to address these problems by developing the Data Drivenness Process Capability Determination Model (DDPCDM) based on the ISO/IEC 330xx family of standards. The proposed model enables organisations to determine their current management capabilities, derivation of a gap analysis, and the creation of a comprehensive roadmap for improvement in a structured and standardised way. DDPCDM comprises two main dimensions: process and capability. The process dimension consists of five organisational management processes: change management, skill and talent management, strategic alignment, organisational learning, and sponsorship and portfolio management. The capability dimension embraces six levels, from incomplete to innovating. The applicability and usability of DDPCDM are also evaluated by conducting a multiple-case study in two organisations. The results reveal that the proposed model is able to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of an organisation in adopting, managing, and fostering the transition to a data-driven organisation and providing a roadmap for continuously improving the data-drivenness of organisations.

Understanding the link between IS capabilities and cost performance in services: the mediating role of supplier integration

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to explore the link between information systems (IS) capabilities, supplier integration and cost performance in the service context. Specifically, it empirically investigates how supplier integration meditates the relationship between three dimensions of IS capabilities and cost performance in service firms.Design/methodology/approachA survey of 156 UK service firms was conducted and the data analyzed to determine the role of supplier integration in mediating the effects of IS capabilities on firms' cost performance. The research model was tested using structural equation modeling (SEM), and the neural network model was used to rank the relative influence of significant predictors obtained from SEM.FindingsThe results confirmed that supplier integration fully mediates the effects of information technology (IT) for supply chain activities and flexible IT infrastructure on cost performance and partially mediates the effect of operations manager's IT knowledge on cost performance. The results showed that operations manager's IT knowledge is the strongest predictor of supplier integration.Originality/valueThis study takes a step toward quelling concerns about the business value of IS, contributing to the development and validation of the measurement of IS capabilities in the service operations context. Additionally, it adds to the emerging body of literature linking supplier integration to the operational performance of service firms.

Toward an integrated framework of corporate venturing for organizational ambidexterity as a dynamic capability

In times of changing business environments, firms must constantly renew their competitive advantage by establishing dynamic capabilities. While often attempting to employ this in corporate venturing activities, they face the challenge of simultaneously exploring new and exploiting existing business opportunities. Examining possible approaches to mastering this feat of ‘organizational ambidexterity’ reveals an extensive but scattered picture. To better integrate this effort by assessing how corporate venturing is linked with organizational ambidexterity in the literature and identifying possible organizational setups, this systematic literature review builds on a sample of 172 studies. Based on different dimensions of dynamic capabilities, the analysis indicates that corporate venturing may take a solely explorative or an exploitative role, or balance both, to directly enable organizational ambidexterity, following a ‘trade-off’, respectively ‘paradox’, school of thought. As a result, this paper identifies four different setups of corporate venturing in an integrated framework, based on the ability and approach to enabling organizational ambidexterity. Here, the synthesis in the proposed framework of the studies examined allows differentiating between not directly ambidextrous separated or integrated corporate venturing and directly ambidextrous contextual or interlinked corporate venturing. As a novel contribution to the fields of strategic management, organizational change and corporate entrepreneurship, this integrated perspective suggests an often overlooked, potentially more strategic role for corporate venturing in the strategic renewal of a firm’s competitive advantage, thus building the basis for further empirical research on strategic corporate venturing approaches for organizational ambidexterity and their application in practice.

A New Model in Designing the Professional Competence System of the Petrochemical Industry with a Sustainable Development Approach

The purpose of this study is to identify and prioritize professional competency indicators and strategies to improve it in the petrochemical industry. This research is a combination because it uses qualitative and quantitative methods in order to collect and analyze data. To identify indices and indigenous components of professional competence, a qualitative and meta-analysis approach and in a quantitative approach, the fuzzy structural equation modeling method has been used in the petrochemical industry. Based on data, a new model with a sustainable development approach has been reached. Which includes the following components: Creativity and Innovation, General Professional Performance, Analytical Skills, Specific Professional Skills, General Professional Skills, Management Skills, Job Information and Awareness, Psychological Competencies, Perceived Self-Efficacy, Adaptability, Basic Expertise, Job Commitment, Professional attitude, tendency to career development, Intrinsic individual characteristics, Increasing factors, Intrinsic individual characteristics, Responsibility, Professional motivations. The results showed that the dimensions of psychological capabilities and general professional performance were located at the basic and lower levels and were identified as the main and most effective dimensions in the development of the most professional competence of the petrochemical industry. And the two elements of increasing competence and adaptability are the least important among the studied dimensions. The components of job information and awareness, career development desire, and managerial skills were identified as the most active components because these components have the highest interactions with other components.

A FUZZY INFERENCE APPROACH TO SUPPLIER SEGMENTATION FOR STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENT

A company embracing an agile strategy to win business must increase its agility and that of its strategic suppliers. Segmentation is an important tool for selecting suppliers that can be developed. This paper addresses the challenge of selecting suppliers in order to develop their agility. A novel segmentation of strategic suppliers is done on the dimensions of agility capability and business excellence. The cascaded fuzzy inference system is the tool used to assess the dimensions of agility capability and business excellence and to construct a segmentation matrix. The strategic segmentation matrix helps to identify suppliers that the company can develop.

Measurement development for eco-innovation capabilities of Malaysian oil and gas firms

PurposeTo combat concerns over the state of the natural environment, energy security and deteriorating air quality, the oil and gas sector needs to implement eco-innovations. Interest in eco-innovation is growing, as its implementation facilitates the transition toward sustainable development and a circular economy, while enabling firms to attain a competitive advantage vis-à-vis capabilities that foster sustainable economic and environmental development. However, literature on eco-innovation capabilities construct development, measurement and validation is scant. This study, therefore, develops an Eco-innovation Capabilities Scale for oil and gas firms.Design/methodology/approachThree dimensions of Eco-innovation Capabilities are identified through an extensive literature review and qualitative interviews. Exploratory and Confirmatory Factor Analysis is applied to data collected from managers of Malaysian Oil and Gas Services and Equipment (OGSE) companies.FindingsResults reveal a parsimonious three-dimensional structure with nine items. The construct of eco-innovation capabilities is manifested by Product Service Stewardship, Environmental Pollution Prevention and Sustainable Development Commitment dimensions. Reliability analysis confirms the reliability and validity of the scale.Originality/valueThe eco-innovation capabilities scale should be useful to researchers in exploring dimensions, factors and outcomes of eco-innovation capabilities. Oil and gas firms play a key role in the global energy mix; hence managers of oil and gas firms may also find this scale useful in measuring their eco-innovation implementation.

A Conceptualized Model of Digital Transformation for Sport Organization in Thailand

Digital transformation becomes a significant driver for numerous industries such as sports, food services, automobiles, and clothing. Firms are obliged to understand how to develop digital capabilities to avoid an inevitable technological disruption and transform their business model successfully. The notion of digital transformation for Sports Organizations in Thailand is a novel idea in academia. This research aims to explore an insight of Sport Organization in Thailand. It focuses on what dimensions should be considered and incorporated while implementing any digital transformation. This research inductively builds a digital transformation framework for sports organizations in Thailand via reviews and in-depth interviews of 28 experts with a digital and sporting background.This research agenda proposes a framework driven by–1) reviewing digital transformation literature and the work on digital maturity concepts on a theoretical basis, 2) proposing and refining a conceptual model from the experts’ critical insights. Furthermore, research findings indicate that digital transformation for Sports Organizations in Thailand should incorporate six capability dimensions composing of strategy, agility(organization and culture), operations(including sports sponsors and sporting agencies), people (employees), technology, and sports fans/consumers when considering such an implementation. Such capabilities should be viewed as an important basis for a research initiative in digital transformation in Thailand’s sports organizations. Practitioners can modify or adapt the proposed conceptualization model and the defined six capability dimensions as guidance for the current state and progress of their digital transformation efforts

The research design adopted was the cross-sectional survey and data for this study was generated from managers and key personnel of the target organizations using structured questionnaire. The study adopted the Spearman’s rank order correlation in its assessment for the bivariate correlations between dimensions of organizational learning capability (managerial commitment and system orientation) and measures of firm innovativeness (propensity to create new products and propensity to create new processes). The findings reveal significant relationships between dimensions of organizational learning capability and the measures of firm innovativeness. In conclusion, it was stated that organizational learning capability, through dimensions such as managerial commitment and system orientation, offers the necessary support, orientation and knowledge control for enhancing firm innovativeness.

Local Governance: A Correlational Study of Administrative Capability and Performance

This study explored the level and correlation of administrative capability and performance of local governments in northern Philippines, particularly in the Cordillera Region. This inquiry utilized the descriptive-co-relational design involving respondents from selected provinces of the region. The results revealed that the respondents gave a low assessment of the different dimensions of administrative capability. The results also showed dissatisfaction of the performance of the local governments. The tests conducted manifested that there is a significant relationship between administrative capability and performance. Social responsibility appeared to be the most dominant dimension that is linked to performance while organization structure emerged to be the least relevant. Generally, the results imply that as administrative capability improves, performance becomes more effective. On the whole, the findings of this investigation connote that with a strong sense of social responsibility, local governments can deliver services regardless of their organization structure. Keywords: Administrative capability, Performance, Local governments DOI: 10.7176/PPAR/11-3-02 Publication date: April 30 th 2021

Self- and proxy-rating of the ICECAP-O for people with dementia: A cross-sectional linguistic validation study in Germany and Portugal

BackgroundThe capability concept became a recognized approach to the measurement of quality of life. The ICECAP-O for older people aims to measure capabilities and has recently been used in people with dementia (self-rating) and informal carers (substituted judgement). However, linguistic validation studies have so far been lacking. MethodsA cross-sectional cognitive interview study with 15 people with dementia (PwD) and 23 informal carers (ICs) was conducted in Germany and Portugal. Respondents were asked to reveal their understanding of the ICECAP-O and the capability approach as well as the response process. A summarising content analysis was performed. ResultsDespite the small sample, our linguistic validation of the German and Portuguese translations detected considerable difficulties or deviations in item comprehension when compared with the intended meaning. In some cases, the item interpretations did not reflect the entire scope of the associated capability dimension, though they were basically correct. Moreover, participants were not able to differentiate some items appropriately from one another, and some misinterpretations occurred. ICs relied mainly on observable behaviour, emotions, or verbal expressions of the PwD. Therefore, ICs found items that ask about the achievement of individual expectations or thoughts about the future difficult to assess. Only very few PwD clearly indicated that they understood the capability approach. ICs in Germany had more difficulties in understanding the capability concept than in ICs Portugal. DiscussionThis linguistic validation study in Germany and Portugal indicates a need for some rephrasing and refinements of the ICECAP-O translated items in both countries to fully encompass some dimensions and avoid misinterpretations. Further studies with larger samples are necessary. Based on our findings, the current German version for ICs’ substituted judgement cannot be recommended for this kind of respondents without further advancements.

Understanding key factors affecting power systems resilience

In this paper, we study the key factors that impact on power systems resilience under severe weather-induced disruptions from three dimensions: the extrinsic disruptions, the intrinsic capacities of a system and the effectiveness of recovery. Using 12 years of historical blackout data from 2007 to 2018 in the U.S., we apply various group selection and bi-level selection methods to identify the key predictor groups as well as factors within-group that affect power system resilience. After deleting the predictors which are fully or highly correlated with others, we split the remaining 39 candidate predictors into 8 natural groups and consider the number of customers affected and the recovery time as response variables. To ensure stability of the selection process, we adopt the random subsampling method to rank the importance of the groups and key predictors. It is found that the disruption types from the extrinsic disruptions dimension have a significant impact on the resilience of power systems, especially for the hurricanes with high scales. From the intrinsic capabilities dimension, the demographic group has a large impact on the number of customers affected. The number of customers affected tends to be large in highly urbanized areas with large population. From the effectiveness of recovery dimension, the group of economics is top selected for the recovery time. It is found that the power system tends to be more resilient with a better economic health. Feature selection under quantile regression is also conducted as the histograms show that the distributions of the responses are skewed and heavy-tailed. It is found that the recovery time is also greatly affected by the investment on the compliance and enforcement program from the North American Electric Reliability Corporation. In summary, our analysis provides interesting insights for understanding power system resilience and developing strategies to enhance the resilience.
