Objetivo da pesquisa: O objetivo deste trabalho é discutir em que medida a intensidade de colaboração entre diferentes esferas governamentais molda o desempenho organizacional obtido a partir de inovações tecnológicas no setor público, tendo como base a implementação de um sistema de recuperação de veículos roubados e furtados, em que a Prefeitura de São Paulo e a Polícia Militar do Estado de São Paulo agiram conjuntamente. Enquadramento teórico: Utiliza-se, como suporte para a análise, a literatura sobre governança colaborativa e inovações em governos, com destaque para a sua aplicação na área de segurança pública. Metodologia: Por meio de regressões logísticas e análise de clusters espaciais, analisamos dados referentes a 319.487 veículos subtraídos no município de São Paulo entre 2015 e 2017. Resultados: Enquanto identificamos um aumento estatisticamente relevante na probabilidade de se recuperar um veículo em decorrência dos esforços colaborativos empregados, encontramos também resultados heterogêneos nos diferentes distritos do município de São Paulo. Originalidade: Este trabalho supre uma deficiência da literatura na medida em que, apesar do crescente uso de inovações como forma de aprimorar serviços públicos, pouco se sabe sobre a intensidade de colaboração necessária para gerar os resultados desejados diante da adoção de novas tecnologias. Contribuições teóricas e práticas: Os resultados sugerem que a efetividade de inovações está associada à intensidade de colaboração entre os diferentes órgãos públicos. Isso indica caminhos para que a gestão pública potencialize os benefícios de inovações em suas atividades.
We explore the relationship between network role, territorial location and the adoption of transgressive styles on jazz music between 1950 and 1969. Our study contributes to the literature on the role of networks in the adoption of innovations, employing the following analytic strategies: (1) we use regular equivalence to identify clusters hierarchically related to each other; (2) classify these clusters into role types; (3) we determine the extent to which territory moderates the relationship between role and the adoption of innovation and (4) we show that territorial location and mobility emerge as an alternative mechanism to network role.
Private Equity (PE) funds are active investors. Besides providing capital, they improve the governance, operational performance and innovation of the investee companies. However, potential misalignment between the fund manager and the company owner regarding exit timing is a limitation of the model. PE funds have a finite-life, and thus they have to liquidate investments after holding them for a certain period. They tend to time the market to exploit favorable market conditions and obtain higher selling prices, and consequently, PE funds may divest before accomplishing the value creation plan. In this article, we use the hazard model to investigate the magnitude of the impact of market conditions on the exit rate of PE deals in Brazil, a volatile emerging economy, and if it increases the chances of exiting investments with holding periods shorter than two years. We analyze a sample of 470 PE deals invested between 1994 and 2014, and we investigate four variables related to market conditions: the stock market priceearnings ratio, the number of IPOs, the Brazilian real (the Brazilian currency) appreciation against the US dollar and the Brazilian interest rate. Our results show that favorable market conditions more than double the exit rate and increase the probability of quick flips.
Purpose -This paper aims to analyze the underlying factors of contract renewals in business-to-business (B2B) contracts.Design/methodology/approach -The authors build a unique data set with 296 contracts signed between a major firm supplying petrochemical goods and its 128 customers between 2013 and 2016. They use Insider Econometrics as their methodological approach.Findings -The econometric results suggest that contracts involving higher volume of trade, higher levels of dedicated assets representing seller's specific investments in each transaction, and contracts comprising more than one product present an increased likelihood of being renewed.Research limitations/implications -Although limited to a single organization, this paper contributes to management theories focused on buyer-supplier relationships in which coordination between interdependent parties is required.Practical implications -Practitioners engaged in B2B relationships may benefit from the findings to shape their bargaining strategies in contexts of high levels of asset specificity and bilateral dependence.Originality/value -This paper contribute to theories related to the strategic negotiation between buyers and suppliers by emphasizing the importance of asset specificity in a nuanced and multifaceted fashion, by highlighting aspects related to resource dependency, and idiosyncratic characteristics on contract renewal.
