Over the past decades, scholars have paid greater attention to relation between Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and corporate reputation. However, despite a growing interest in this area, such linkages have remained relatively unexplored in the banking industry and the precise relationship is not clear. Moving from these considerations, this study proposes a systematic review of peer-reviewed scientific literature aiming to: 1) list, 2) classify and 3) compare existing studies. The review was carried out using the following databases: ISI Web, Google Scholar, and SSRN. I investigate a number of publishing academic works, summarizing main approaches, results and insights. I also provide a roadmap for future study and offer research questions about critical areas of this stream of research. The paper contributes to the ongoing international debates, and the preliminary results are encouraging.

“…A fim de alcançar esse objetivo, foi realizada uma metassíntese segundo os critérios estabelecidos por Hoon (2013). A identificação dos modelos deu-se por meio de uma pesquisa bibliométrica nos anais dos eventos EnANPAD e EnGPR dos anos de 2003 a 2014, bem como nas edições do mesmo período dos periódicos classificados no espectro A1-B2, considerados os de maior impacto pelo sistema Qualis Capes.…”

ResumoA elaboração e implementação de um programa de treinamento e desenvolvimento de recursos humanos que permita a flexibilização das organizações frente às constantes exigências dos ambientes interno e externo são alguns dos principais objetivos das organizações que buscam a sua sobrevivência e manutenção de seu capital intelectual. Para tal, é necessário saber identificar as necessidades de treinamento na empresa. Desenvolver esse diagnóstico não é tarefa simples. Tal tema tem sido alvo de estudos acadêmicos e mercadológicos, buscando estruturar um sistema de Análise de Necessidades de Treinamento (ANT). Uma análise desses modelos propostos revela uma dissonância entre os estudiosos. A fim de alcançar esse objetivo, foi realizada uma metassíntese segundo os critérios estabelecidos por Hoon (2013). A identificação dos modelos se deu por meio de uma pesquisa bibliométrica nos anais dos eventos EnANPAD e EnGPR dos anos de 2003 a 2014, bem como nas edições do mesmo período dos periódicos classificados no espectro A1-B2, considerados os de maior impacto pelo sistema Qualis Capes. Acredita-se que esta pesquisa contribui para a compreensão da área de gestão de pessoas como estratégica nas organizações, através da sistematização de seus processos e otimização dos seus indicadores de resultados.Palavras-chave: Análise de necessidades de treinamento. Treinamento. Competências.

“…Largely, we discuss the importance of triangulation, case study protocol, and quality and validity. In addition, one may also refer to the inputs suggested in previous conceptual notes and frameworks for reasons like case selection biases and methodology rigor (Collinson and Rugman, 2010;Hoon, 2013), and using teaching cases for management research (Ambrosini et al, 2010). For instance, Ambrosini et al proposed few guidelines for increasing the awareness on the use of teaching cases in management research of which they discussed teaching cases whether to -be used as an alternative to field research, and be used as secondary data in 'when' and 'how' taxonomies.…”

“…Conversely, it is also important to note that senior scholars emphasize largely on characteristics, protocols and limitations of the use of qualitative methods in strategy related areas include M&As, joint ventures, networks, alliances and buyouts (Collinson and Rugman, 2010;Ghauri and Firth, 2009;Piekkari et al, 2009). Of course, few scholars have presented views on quality and rigor of qualitative methods, theory testing and development in case study research (Peng, 2004;Tsang, 2013Tsang, , 2014, and developed new ways of doing the case study research (Hoon, 2013).…”

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to explore the state of case study research in mergers and acquisitions (M&A) literature that account for different management streams. It also recommends directions for future research and suggests fruitful guidelines for establishing better research rigor in qualitative methods.Methodology: This study draws attention to the case study method in qualitative research and thereby aims to review previous studies using said approach in M&A related literature. Findings:The main findings include, 57 journal articles are found to be using different qualitative methods of which 40 (17) articles have focused on developed (emerging) markets, single (multiple) case based studies are 29 (24) and remaining four have used survey and interview methods.Importantly, a meager number of studies have accomplished the purpose of case study research in business administration, i.e. testing extant theory and building new theory. Albeit, doing case study research among emerging markets is exiting and these institutional countries provide a unique setting to build theory as well as advance the current knowledge because of increasing prospects for M&A and other growth strategies. Research limitations:This stylized review of case study research in M&A literature is limited to journal publications and qualitative methods. Hence, a survey of qualitative and quantitative methods in growth strategies is left to future research. Practical implications:Qualitative researchers, in general, would benefit from the bibliometric analysis and comprehensive summary of past research. While, case study researchers, in particular, would benefit not only form the later content but also from suggestions reflecting the research quality and validity.Originality: This study, indeed, is an original attempt at presenting the current state and review of case study method in M&A research, provided no earlier study claims this.
