Comunicar conocimientos vs. organizar el conocimiento: la gestión del gen-preneur en el aula.

Se han hecho innumerables pruebas para constatar que la creatividad es una habilidad crítica para los emprendedores y su formación emprendedora (Schmidt, J. et al. 2012), incluso se ha detectado que la práctica sobre el pensamiento divergente incrementa las habilidades emprendedoras de los estudiantes para generar un mayor número y rango de ideas, pero NO así, sus enfoques para la resolución creativa de problemas. Nuestro objetivo será mostrar que el emprendimiento es una faceta de la creatividad y que, el emprendedor"oculto" en el discente, necesitará observar y confirmar la existencia de condicionantes externos suficientes, para liberar su actitud emprendedora retenida, asimismo, será imprescindible la adopción, por parte del docente de una actitud innovadora que facilite un contexto propicio para que el alumno muestre comportamientos asociados con actitudes emprendedoras. Tras nuestro estudio, constatamos que la implementación de una actitud innovadora docente contribuye a facilitar la transmisión del espíritu emprendedor y a mejorar la gestión del gen-preneur en el aula

Job satisfaction and commitment in the entrepreneurial SME

In the current global corporate climate that surrounds us, firms would do well to encourage the talent and creativity of their employees to achieve success. This is achieved, not by giving priority to individual talent, but by optimizing the collective as a whole and with the firm¿s activities based on teamwork and joint effort. Heads of organizations might benefit from creating a favorable context for the birth and growth of collective internal cooperation, which is understood to be the collective ability to create and innovate on the part of the team, the firm or the organization. Having contrasted our hypotheses through research on Spanish firms, we have concluded that job satisfaction and ommitment to the team are factors that have a direct and positive effect on Internal Entrepreneurship

The influence of variables of attitude on collective entrepreneurship

Transmitting the Entrepreneurial Spirit to the work team in SMEs : the importance of leadership

Purpose ¿ To establish the extent of the influence of variables which, under a particular style of leadership, form the necessary basis for encouraging and developing group, entrepreneurial activities carried out within the context of small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) thus explaining the transmission of the entrepreneurial spirit to the work team and, consequently, the existence of collective entrepreneurship in the firm. Design/methodology/approach ¿ From the results of a questionnaire carried out via personal interviews with over 100 firms, a confirmatory factorial analysis was carried out that provided us with the variables to be studied. The cause/effect relationships and their implications were obtained from applying a LISREL8 analysis. Findings ¿ A leadership based on relationships shows a positive impact, with an intensity of more than double that of participative leadership. A task-oriented leadership style reduces the chances of transmitting the entrepreneurial spirit to the work team by having a negative influence on the generation of collective entrepreneurship in the firm. Research limitations/implications ¿ The models contain the relations of ¿causality¿ between these latent variables, assuming that the variables observed therein are indicators or symptoms of those other variables. This could be considered as a limitation to our analysis as the study of covariance. Practical implications ¿ The model has important applications for the process of incorporating new CEOs into the organization. Originality/value ¿ This paper presents confirmation of the need for aspects traditionally associated with the figure of the entrepreneur to be transmitted to the organization¿s collective as a whole and for the existence of collective entrepreneurship: an area of management that has thus far received relatively little attention and which could have important practical implications.

Las spin-off: tipos y supervivencia: The spin-off: types and survival

Teniendo en cuenta que uno de los tres objetivos clave en el ámbito universitario es la transferencia de conocimientos, y dado que en el caso español en los últimos cinco años el 99% de las spin-off creadas en el ámbito universitario y académico sobreviven al primer año; en el presente trabajo pretendemos analizar las spin-off creadas durante los últimos cinco años distribuidas por sus tipos con el fin de observar cuantas sobreviven y por qué

Information interoperability evaluation model for public web sites

The research project is based on the recently adopted European Interoperability Framework and its Spanish equivalent in order to design an evaluation model to identify key aspects related to information and knowledge interoperability in public organizations. The main objective of the project is oriented to diffuse the information interoperability standards in public organizations and to foster the usage of new techniques and procedures for information integration and management. The method used to carry out the research consists of three main phases: the analysis of information interoperability related technologies, the design of a model to evaluate information interoperability in public web sites, and the empirical analysis of key factors affecting information interoperability. The project main result is an electronic tutorial to facilitate the information and knowledge evaluation process in public organizations and to plan the conversion from non-interoperable technologies and formats to interoperable ones

Ecosistema emprendedor de la Universidad de València

This article is part of the process of describing, analyzing, and exploring the Incubation and Technology Transfer Model of the University of València towards the Valencian society, in order to find anchoring points for initiatives, including improvement of services and procedures defined and proposed by the University itself. The University of València, in its 2016-2019 strategic plan, is defined as "a university that promotes basic and applied research, and scientific and technological development", whose aim is "to value the results of the investigation". To this end, it has developed an ecosystem of services and resources that strive to capture, generate and manage talent and the academic knowledge available, to see who the doers are and how they do it, as well if they are able to transfer the research results into products, services, processes, technological innovations, etc., in the different areas of sectoral application. Our work concludes with a constructive comment that emphasizes the need to balance the generated ecosystem leading it to the establishment of the financial factor, and points to the need of finding "new" ways to implement the transfer process, with the purpose of generating an effective flow towards business.Nuestro trabajo se enmarca dentro del proceso de describir, analizar y explorar el Modelo de Incubación y Transferencia de Tecnología de la Universitat de València hacia la sociedad valenciana, con el objetivo de hallar puntos de anclaje para iniciativas, incluso de mejora de los servicios y procedimientos definidos y propuestos por la propia Universidad. La Universitat de València, en su plan estratégico 2016-2019, se define como “una universidad que fomenta la investigación, tanto básica como aplicada, y el desarrollo científico y tecnológico”. En concreto, en el apartado de transferencia, su objetivo es “poner en valor los resultados de la investigación”. Para ello ha desarrollado un ecosistema que aglutina toda una serie de servicios, medios y recursos que pugnan por captar, generar y gestionar el talento y el conocimiento universitario disponible para ver quién es y cómo lo hace, y es capaz de transferir más resultados de la investigación generada en forma de productos, servicios, procesos, innovaciones tecnológicas, etc., en los distintos ámbitos de aplicación sectorial. Nuestro trabajo concluye con un comentario crítico donde se enfatiza la necesidad de equilibrar el ecosistema generado, compensándolo hacia el establecimiento del factor financiero, y se argumenta la necesidad de encontrar “nuevas” formas a implementar en el proceso de transferencia, con el fin de generar realmente un flujo efectivo hacia las empresas
