Good governance in the entities of the social economy
Entities of the Social Economy are ruled by practices of collective action and democratic participation within the framework of what is known as good governance. This is based on a set of values and principles belonging to the organisations. These practices reach beyond the frontiers of the entity and have an impact on society with the application of policies of local development, social and environmental responsibility, and cooperation. This article seeks to establish a relationship between said good governance practices and business results by means of a literature study, finally formulating a theoretical model of good governance in Social Economy, which will be contrasted empirically in subsequent studies.Social economy, good governance, democratic management, cooperation, results, social cohesion, organisational culture, efficient management.
Strategy for the modernization of the armed forced: a study made with small and medium companies of the sector of the spanish defence
Concerning the model Attitudes-Intentions of behaviour (Bagozzi, 1992) and the comprehensive model of Turnover (Griffeth & Hom, 2001), the present study intends to analyze the mediating role of three attitudes (affective commitment, general satisfaction and satisfaction oriented towards the client) in the relationship that variables characterizing the work (Job Motivating Potential, Perception of Employment Alternatives and Sacrifice Perception) establish with output variables (Intention of Turnover and Organization Recommendation). We used a heterogeneous sample of 303 workers belonging to different actors of hotel business. The results of the mediating tests clarify the importance of the considered attitudes in the way job characteristics affect the intentions of behavior of the hotel employees. In general, we think our results can contributed to develop a relevant model for explaining the behavioral intentions of the professionals working with clients (front-office), which conciliates the practices of human resources with the logic of the market

Influencing responsible green innovation in Dominican agribusiness performance
The objective of this article is to explore the combined effects of corporate social responsibility (CSR), green transformational leadership and knowledge transfer on responsible green innovation and to analyse their impact on agribusiness business performance in the context of a developing country. There is no research that integrates joint effects on responsible innovation with a focus on process inputs and increased greening capabilities in agricultural units. Moreover, we have integrated transformational green leadership to better explain this impact as a differentiator. Results show both knowledge transfer and green transformational leadership have positive relationships with responsible green innovation, and the latter has a positive impact on environmental, economic and strategic performance dimensions. Overall, our results establish that CSR is an external driver that reinforces knowledge transfer with an emphasis on collaboration. CSR also reinforces green leadership functions through synergies in conjunction with green human resource management practices
Effective hospital response to covid-19: evidence from social healthcare organizations in Brazil and Portugal
This study analyzes the impact of effective knowledge management, organizational intelligence, and organizational performance on the effective hospital response and social health to covid-19. Data were collected through a research questionnaire sent to physicians and nurses who worked in hospitals in Brazil and Portugal. We sent the survey link using a professional social network and 101 valid responses were obtained. The PLS-SEM analysis technique was used to test hypotheses. The results showed that there is a positive relationship between the constructs of effective knowledge management and organizational performance, and effective response to covid-19. This study also indicates that effective knowledge management has a positive association with organizational intelligence and organizational performance, in addition to a positive relationship between organizational intelligence and organizational performance. As practical implications, our research reinforces the importance of effective knowledge management for pandemic management and validates the relationships between effective knowledge management, organizational intelligence, organizational performance, and hospital response effectiveness. From these results, hospitals and social health organizations will be able to improve their effectiveness in responding to new disease outbreaks. As originality, this work presents a model to manage the response of these health care and hospital institutions to pandemics
Relating Information Technologies and knowledge in Submarines Construction
[ENG] Applied scientists and engineers work for the Navy in technology development, in the design
of certain critical components, to ensure safety and to determine the appropriate tradeoffs
regarding performance, schedule, and cost. To carry out this work submarine engineers and
designers must possess special knowledge beyond that required for building most other kinds
of warships. Many systems must be designed for greater compactness and quietness than is
needed for surface vessels, in this way, it is possible for these systems to resist the physical
pressure of operations at sea. That is why the design process of a submarine is a task to
integrate knowledge and complex technologies which must work simultaneously and which
need the complement of the knowledge of the different agents related with the shipyard. In
this work framework, the lack of suitable knowledge and experience of the staff could lead to
an increase in construction costs due to changes or failure to adapt the uncompleted designs.
Also, it has been consistently described the technology as a significant, powerful shift in the
workplace climate, pedagogy and resulting learnin
