“…As strong points of the typology created by Miles and Snow, Gimenez et al (1999) highlight the possibility that the framework can be applied to studies of organizations of any size, in contrast with other strategy typologies, and the simplicity of fitting organization's strategic behavior to one of just four categories. The studies of Gardelin, Rossetto and Verdinelli (2013), Gallas et al (2015) and Martins and Flores (2017) are examples of typology applications in small business empirical research.…”

“…In relation to the patterns of strategic behavior adopted more frequently in small companies, these research conflict about the results. The study by Gardelin, Rossetto and Verdinelli (2013), for example, carried out with small companies from different segments showed a predominance of Prospector behavior (40% of the sample). In the research by Gallas et al (2015), performed with small companies in the beauty and esthetics sector, the most frequent behavior is the Defender (32.4% of the sample).…”

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the relationship between the entrepreneurial competencies and the strategic behavior patterns of entrepreneurs in response to the social and economic environment in which they operate, taking into consideration limitations that are common to emerging countries. The study takes a quantitative approach with a survey of 211 Individual Micro Entrepreneurs (IME) operating in the Brazilian state of Santa Catarina. The results demonstrated that there were differences between mean scores for the entrepreneurial competencies when compared across the entrepreneurs' strategic behavior types. Moreover, entrepreneurs who were Reactors possessed a mean of 6 out of the ten entrepreneurial competencies, Defenders had 7.97, Analyzers had 8.38, and Prospectors had 8.56. The paper reveals which competencies are most likely to be associated with each strategic behavior type. The findings also indicate that entrepreneurial competencies can impact the adoption of more consistent business strategies, contributing to actions that respond to unstable social and economic scenarios.

“…To remain visible and competitive, companies must continually adapt to the environment in which they are placed (Duncan, 1972). The perception of the environment is influenced by the background of the environmental organization's uncertainty, which may affect its results (Dess & Beard, 1984;Boyd & Fulk, 1996;Priem, Love & Shaffer, 2002;Gardelin, Rossetto & Verdinelli, 2013).…”

et al. 2020

Purpose: The purpose of this research was to correlate the constructs of productive dynamic capability and organizational performance mediated by environmental uncertainty in micro and small agroindustries of Brazilian states such as the Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Catarina, and Paraná.Methodology: In order to reach the expected aim, quantitative research using the survey technique was developed. The sample that was used consisting of 138 small and micro-sized of southern Brazilian agroindustries. It was performed confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling for the data analysis. In order to analyze the mediation, the two dimensions of environmental uncertainty, complexity, and dynamism were analyzed each one isolated.Findings: The outcomes show a positive correlation between productive dynamic capability and performance in rural agroindustries. The mediation of both complexity and dynamism presented a positive statistical significance, that is the environmental uncertainty mediated the relationship. This study suggests that the agroindustries productive dynamic capability contributes to its performance, and the perception of environmental uncertainty influences this relation.Originality/Value: The study contributes to the dynamic capabilities’ theory, advancing and providing new empirical evidence to the investigations on dynamic capabilities, specifically on productive dynamic capability, when relating the performance construct in micro and small agroindustries. It also contributes to the environmental uncertainty field through its mediating effect on the relation between productive dynamic capability and organizational performance.

“…Nesta perspectiva, este estudo visa contribuir para a literatura, uma vez que investiga a incerteza do ambiente percebida pelos gestores e a relaciona com o uso de controles para gestão de riscos, em um cenário específico, que são as organizações de prestação de serviço de Transporte Rodoviário de Cargas. A contribuição para a literatura também ocorre pela possibilidade de ampliar estudos como os de Ezzamel (1990), Fisher (1996), Martins et al (2009), Jokipii (2010, Gomes et al (2011), Silva e Naldis (2012), Gardelin et al (2013) e Silva (2013).…”

JOSIANE BRIGHENTI RESUMOO estudo teve por objetivo verificar como a percepção de gestores em relação às incertezas do ambiente, no setor de serviços de transporte rodoviário de cargas, se relaciona com o uso de controles para gerenciamento de riscos. Metodologicamente, a pesquisa se caracteriza como descritiva, com abordagem qualitativa, e foi realizada por meio de estudo de casos em quatro empresas. Os casos foram selecionados levando em consideração o tipo de carga transportada, bem como a acessibilidade para a realização da pesquisa. As categorias do estudo foram extraídas da literatura e organizadas em forma de questionário e de roteiro de entrevista. Utilizaram-se ainda dados provenientes de documentos disponibilizados pelas organizações e observação direta, visando à triangulação dos dados. Os resultados evidenciaram que as maiores fontes de incertezas foram atribuídas às rodovias, que, por sua vez, apresentaram controles e processos de gestão de risco mais sofisticados. Verificou-se que os gestores que percebem maiores incertezas em determinado ambiente buscam implementar mecanismos de gerenciamento de riscos para diminuir os impactos negativos na organização. Apesar das organizações buscarem meios para melhorar a gestão de riscos, utilizando mecanismos adicionais para minimizar as incertezas do ambiente, a gestão de riscos nas empresas investigadas é incipiente e está fortemente relacionada aos sistemas de rastreamento das frotas e aquisição de seguros para as cargas.Palavras-chave: gestão de riscos, incerteza do ambiente, transporte rodoviário de cargas. ABSTRACTThe study aimed to ascertain how the perception of managers in relation to environmental uncertainties in the road freight transportation sector relates to the use of controls for risk management. Methodologically, the research is characterized as descriptive, with a qualitative approach, and was carried out through case studies in four companies. The cases were selected taking into account the type of cargo as well as accessibility to the research. The categories of the study were drawn from the literature and organized in a questionnaire and an interview
