Indicators of the Agricultural Industry Management System: Innovation and Investment Readiness Due to the Digital and Technological Transformation from the Perspective of an Ontological Approach

The article presents indicators of the agricultural industry management system: doing business in a digital and technological transformation from the perspective of an ontological approach. It is important to note that it is impossible to transform under the requirements of the modern world without the introduction of innovation. However, innovation is always marked by financial costs and loss of time, which reduces the innovative activity of organizations in the agricultural sector, and, therefore, determines the diagnosis of innovation and investment policy. Forming an indicative methodology for justifying, measuring and developing the readiness of the agricultural sector’s management system to conduct entrepreneurship in the context of digital and technological transformation from the perspective of an ontological approach is evident as a process of formation and implementation of investment potential to ensure the release of innovative competitive products based on an advanced technology platform.

Основные факторы производительности труда в регионах Центрального федерального округа

The transition to a postindustrial — information economy is capable of ensuring multiple growth in labor productivity. Until now, there is unequivocal opinion on the system of factors of economic growth and increase in labor productivity; research results are often contradictory. To identify factors that determine labor productivity, a correlation analysis of the relationships between labor productivity and indicators characterizing socio-economic and innovative factors in the regions of the Central Federal District is performed. It was revealed that in 2015, 2016 and 2017 labor capital, non-obsolete fixed assets, investments in fixed assets, foreign investments, employed workers with higher education, the level of wages and income inequality, the number of students, the development of transport infrastructure, the use of computers and the Internet, the number of employees engaged in scientific research developments, including those with advanced degrees, graduate school graduation, innovative activity of organizations, and exports had a significant effect. The number of employees in government bodies has a negative effect. The multicollenarity of the indicators characterizing the tested factors will allow us to consider that half of the identified factors are independent.

Влияние социально-экономических и инновационных факторов на производительность труда в Центральном федеральном округе

In order to identify the influence of socio-economic and innovative factors on labor productivity, econometric models were built based on cross-sectional statistics from the regions of the Central Federal District. It has been established that in order to increase productivity, it is necessary to increase investment in new fixed assets, foreign investment, the number of workers with higher education, the level of wages, develop transport infrastructure, expand the use of computers and the Internet, the number of researchers with academic degrees. In addition, the number of employees of territorial executive bodies should reduce, the number of university students and scientists with academic degrees should increase, the innovative activity of organizations should increase, and exports should be stimulated.

The Relationship among Strategic Orientation, Organizational Learning, Innovation and Perceived Management Performance

본 연구의 목적은 중국 특급 호텔의 전략지향성(고객지향성, 경쟁자지향성, 혁신성, 진취성, 위험감수성), 조직학습, 혁신, 지각된 경영성과 간의 관계를 파악하기 위함이다. 이를 위하여 중국 특급호텔 종사원을 대상으로 2019년 2월부터 3월까지 중국 7개 지역에서 23개 호텔의 438명 종사원 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구결과, 지각된 경영성과는 조직학습과 혁신에 정(+)의 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 조직학습은 전략적 지향성 변수 중 고객지향성, 진취성, 위험감수성에 정(+)의 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났으나, 경쟁자지향성, 혁신성은 조직학습에 영향을 미치지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 혁신은 전략적 지향성 변수 중 위험감수성을 제외한 고객지향성, 경쟁자 지향성, 혁신성, 진취성 등에 정(+)의 영향을 받고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 호텔기업의 지각된 경영성과는 기업의 전략적 지향성, 혁신성, 조직학습 등의 결과이며, 경영성과를 높이기 위해서는 이러한 전략적 목표를 설정하고 조직학습을 통해 혁신을 달성하는 것이 효과적이라는 사실이 본 연구를 통해 밝혀졌으며, 본 연구의 결과를 토대로 실제 호텔경영실적 향상에 활용 될 수 있을 것이다.In this study, the relationship among strategic orientation, organizational learning, innovation and cognitive business results of the employed in China’s star hotels was examined. From February to March 2019, 438 employees from 23 hotels in 7 regions of China were investigated by a self-administrated questionnaire. The results showed that customer orientation, aggressiveness and risk-taking all have positive (+) and significant influence on organizational learning, while competitor orientation and innovation have no significant influence on organizational learning. Moreover, the influence of organizational learning on innovation, innovation on cognitive business results, and organizational learning on cognitive business results were positive (+) and significant. In addition, customer orientation, competitor orientation, innovation and aggressiveness all had a positive and significant influence on innovation, while risk-taking has no influence on innovation. Therefore, this study suggests that the star-hotel enterprises in China must constantly strengthen organizational learning and innovation activities in order to achieve efficient business results.

Impact of the Strategic Role of IT on Explorative and Exploitative Innovation Activities: The Role of Environmental Uncertainty

ABSTRACTWhile numerous studies have examined the relationship between IT and innovation, comparatively few explore IT's contribution to explorative and exploitative innovation activities. A better understanding of the influence of IT's strategic role on exploration and exploitation innovation is critical for tracing the complex IT–innovation relationship. To address this gap, we develop a theoretical model that describes the contingent relationship between IT's strategic role and explorative and exploitative innovation activities. By testing the model using a multisource, matched sample of data from Chinese firms, we find that the IT roles of automation, information, and transformation differentially influence exploration and exploitation, underscoring IT's multifaceted role in organizational innovation activities. Specifically, IT‐enabled transformation positively affects exploration, and IT‐enabled information positively affects both exploration and exploitation. We also evidence the moderating effect of environmental uncertainty in these relationships by uncovering that IT‐enabled automation is negatively related to exploration, whereas IT‐enabled transformation positively affects both explorative and exploitative innovation activities with high environmental uncertainty. Our article contributes to the knowledge in the field by demonstrating the value of a firm's transformative IT investments to develop explorative and exploitative innovation activities in the presence of environmental uncertainty.

Innovation strategies and complementarity between innovation activities: the case of commercial archaeological firms

As a key part of their professionalization process, creative industries (CIs) including private or contract archaeological firms (AFs) increasingly rely on bundles of technological (product/service and process) and non-technological (organizational) innovation activities. Adopting a complementarity perspective, the study clarifies how technological and non-technological innovation initiatives are combined in an intertwined way. Drawing on a sample of 217 AFs, this study examines and uncovers synergies between innovation strategy and innovation practices and the further effects on innovation performance in AFs. Specifically, results show that successful AFs combine multidimensional service, process, and organizational innovations to generate higher innovation performance.

Organizational and Economic Potential of Joint Engagement of Venture Capital and Business Process Re-engineering in the Marketing Activities of Industrial Enterprises

The Ukrainian industry is a strategically important industry that retains the potential to contribute to the rapid development of the national economy. At the same time, this potential can be realized only choosing an innovation vector of the nearest future of the industry. Together with the activation of innovation activity, industrial entrepreneurs face the problem of the fund scarcity, high risks and outdated approaches to the conduct and organization of activities. In these terms, the authors of the article propose to investigate the organizational and economic potential of joint engagement of venture business and reengineering of business processes in the marketing sphere of industrial enterprises. It is marketing activity of industrial enterprises, which is recommended by the authors as the most effective for operative adaptation of the company to radical transformations in outer business-environment. Being in the tight connection with a customer (existing and potential) and its requirements, marketing activity is able to define strategic directions of company development and to implement new regulars of business in everyday company’s activity. Thus, the study analyses organizational principles of venture activity and reengineering business-processes in marketing activity, the relationship between these areas in the organization of innovation activities and common approaches to the development of strategic programs for the development of industrial enterprises under the conditions of sharp transformations in the external business environment. Reengineering business-processes in marketing activity is presented as an innovation, which could be engaged through venture capital, and in the same time, this innovation is able to carry out radical transformations in its organization and business-activity principle. The transformations should be carried out to ensure further effective use of engaged investments and to develop effective innovation activity. Key words: industrial enterprise, venture activities, marketing activities, re-engineering, business process, organization, resource, strategy, business environment.

The Path to Innovation: The Antecedent Perspective of Intellectual Capital and Organizational Character.

Purpose: The high-speed growth of China's large-scale new economy indicates that innovation has become the most important economic growth pole. The study aims to explore the structure of the path to innovation, in which we focus on the mediating effect of organizational character.Design/methodology/approach: Considering the indigenous context of China's new economy, the study divides innovation into two types: technological innovation and business model innovation. Then, we build a path model to achieve the innovation by taking intellectual capital and organizational character as antecedents. Finally, a structural equation model is built to measure the path on the basis of sample data collected via a questionnaire survey.Findings: The results indicate that intellectual capital has a significant positive direct effect on technological innovation, but its direct effect on business model innovation is not significant. Organizational character not only mediates the relationship between the intellectual capital and technological innovation, but also plays a mediating role in the effect path from the intellectual capital to business model innovation. In addition, technological innovation has a positive impact on the business model innovation, and mediates the relationship between the intellectual capital and business model innovation.Originality/value: The study takes intellectual capital and organizational character as the common antecedents of innovation and breaks down the content of innovation research into technological innovation and business model innovation. Thus, it establishes a new theoretical analysis framework for dual innovation research and enriches the related theories. The framework would have stronger explanatory power for revealing the innovation strategy and behavior carried out by a large number of corporate organizations in China and the boom of new economy. Furthermore, it would lead enterprises to organize innovation activities more effectively and improve their innovation performances.

The Link between Vendor Certification and Performance in IT Outsourcing: A Tale of Two Stories

There has been a great deal of ambiguity in the relationship between vendor certification and vendor performance in the outsourcing context. In this study we build a competitive mediation model, where we examine both the direct and the indirect effects of vendor certification on vendor growth. Using a combination of primary data (i.e., survey) and secondary data from a sample of 120 IT vendors in India, we find that vendor certification directly helps vendor growth but it hurts vendor innovation and therefore indirectly hinders vendor growth. We further explore the moderating role of the number of clients. Our results demonstrate that an increase in the number of clients does not moderate the positive relationship between certification and growth; however, it weakens the negative relationship between vendor certification and innovation. In this sense, a large client base seems to attenuate the dark side of certification in organizational innovation activities.

MANAGING INNOVATION PROCESSES THROUGH VALUE CO-CREATION: A PROCESS CASE FROM BUSINESS-TO-BUSINESS SERVICE PRACTISE

Value co-creation is a specific type of collaboration that is considered to be an innovative and interactive process between end users and organizations; it aims to increase the value of a product or service. This study investigates how a network of stakeholders collaborating to manage innovation openly co-creates value over time; it contributes to the existing literature on value co-creation by taking the perspective of the network as a whole. The study follows a case in which value co-creation unfolds over time across a network of stakeholders within the business-to-business facility service context. The in-depth longitudinal investigation of a network composed of a corporate customer and its external facility service providers revealed that a network of stakeholders co-creates value over time by (i) offering an adaptable structure for the network to organize innovation activities and establish support routines, (ii) facilitating interactions to support stakeholder relation development and (iii) allowing participants to achieve self-empowerment. Therefore, stakeholder value co-creation entails the combination of single value co-creation activities and overarching network progressions that allow for learning and inter-organizational trust among stakeholders.

The role of human capital in the modern economy and indicators of its evaluation

The development of a modern economy, increasing its competitiveness is impossible without the accumulation and development of human capital, since the foundation of the transformation of the economic system into an innovation economy is human capital. In this regard, the level of development and effectiveness of the use of human capital is of paramount importance. In this study, an attempt is made to assess the effectiveness of the use of human capital for its contribution to the economy of the country. The authors emphasize that the modern economy makes new demands on workers, therefore it is necessary to constantly accumulate human capital, its development through continuous training, which will allow the domestic economy to exit on the trajectory of sustainable economic growth. The need to create conditions for a comprehensive increase in the level of development of human capital was stressed. The authors propose an author's approach to assess the level of development and efficiency of the use of human capital on the basis of indicators: the index of labor productivity, the share of high-technology and knowledge-intensive industries in GDP, the increase in the number of high-productivity jobs, the innovative activity of organizations, the share of domestic expenditure on research and development in GDP, the coefficient of inventive activity. The article presents the results of the study of human capital in the Russian Federation. The role of human capital in the economic development of the country has been studied and justified. Key indicators of the effectiveness of the use of human capital are analyzed. Trends in the development of human capital in the Russian Federation for 2011–2016 are shown. The analysis of the results of the assessment will reveal problems in the formation and use of human capital and determine the main directions and necessary conditions for increasing the contribution of human capital to the economy.

The Effect of Government Subsidy on Non-Technological Innovation and Firm Performance in the Service Sector: Evidence from Germany

Abstract Background: To enhance the innovation activities at the firm level, government subsidies plays an important role. Objectives: The objective of the study is to explore whether firms in service sector that receive government subsidies engage more in marketing and organizational innovation activities than their counterparts. Second, focusing on the subsidized firms in the service sector, the impact of innovations (marketing as well as organizational) on firm performance—measured as the probability of submitted copyright applications by firms, has been analyzed. Methods/Approach: The propensity score matching approach and probit model have been used to analyze the innovation activities of subsidized and non-subsidized firms. The empirical analysis is based on the micro level data from Mannheim Innovation Panel, covering the Community Innovation Survey of 2011. Results: Empirical results show that public subsidy has a significant positive effect on marketing and organizational innovation. In addition, within the firms that have received government subsidy, the impact of only marketing innovation is found to be significant on firm performance. Conclusions: These findings employ that subsidized firms are more likely to perform better than their counterparts. Furthermore, public subsidy programs increase the probability of applying for a copyright in small and medium firms.

Legal Regulation of Scientific and Innovative Activities of Medical Organizations

In the paper the author examines regulatory legal acts both at the level of laws and at the level of by-laws regulating scientific and innovative activity of medical organizations in order to determine a legal regulation of such activities that corresponds to the existing realities. On the basis of the study the author comes to the conclusion that the existing legal framework in this area is imperfect. This conclusion is justified by the fact that, first, the fundamental law in the field of scientific activity - the Federal law of 23.08.1996 № 127-FZ "On Science and State-Technical Policy" - is outdated and its provisions cannot properly regulate modern science in the field of medicine, since it was adopted more than 20 years ago and, during this period, there have been significant changes in the field, e.g. high-tech medical equipment has been created, medical organizations are using innovative developments in their work. Second, the fundamental law regulating innovation activity as a whole has not been adopted until now, which, of course, causes problems for the legal regulation of innovative activities of medical organizations.

Об инновационной компоненте затрат и выпуска в промышленности России

The value indicators of technological innovation at Russian enterprises, developed on the basis of the Oslo Manual, have been monitored for several decades. At the same time, it has not yet been possible to develop a common understanding of what processes and phenomena they measure, what is the error of such measurements and what meaningful conclusions can be formulated on the basis of these measurements. The article discusses the prevailing methodological approaches devoted to Russia’s industry innovative activity estimation. We also substantiate an alternative approach towards Russia’s industry innovative activity estimation, based on the comparison of «Information on innovative activity of organization» and ‘Information on financial condition of organization’ statistical forms. Due to that approach we highlight the periods of crisis, recovery and stagnation of the innovation sector development during 2006–2016. Also, we recalculate input and output technological innovations indicators in constant prices. Next, we estimates economic weight of the innovative component in the country’s industry, based on value indicators. The comparative characteristic of Russia’s industry innovative development within crisis, recovery and stagnation periods is given
