“…For research studies, the findings related with the heterogeneity of the knowledge dynamics interaction, expose important aspects that can be investigated with the same or similar methodology in different agricultural chain (Li et al, 2018;Contreras-Medina et al, 2019a, 2019b, for better understanding, besides that the largest and smallest scores (gaps) present an important line to deepen, considering internal and external factors as trust and motivation (Baldé et al, 2018).…”

“…For identify the dynamic knowledge interaction contained in the agave-mezcal production process, the first stage was following the four layers of SECI model, through sessions faceto-face and questionaries' application and field visits, with agave-mezcal producers in their communities. The questions were developed based on the theories of Nonaka (1994), Wu and Magnier-Watanabe (2010) and questions of Contreras-Medina et al (2019a, 2019b (applied into Mexican context), following the process of Kumar (2014) and Hern andez Sampieri et al (2010), for adapting questions into mezcal production. For Socialization layer were formulated four questions as follows:…”

“…The findings also show a positive effect for knowledge creation and the development of good practices, because of the interaction between tacit and explicit knowledge. A new study was exposed by Contreras-Medina et al (2019a), in which, based on SECI phases, describe knowledge flow of non-profit organizations from Guanajuato, Mexico, based on beneficiaries' perspectives. The findings show an imbalance between tacit and explicit knowledge flow, recommending specific strategies according the beneficiaries characteristics.…”

Purpose Following the recommendation of the food and agriculture organization of the United Nations in agricultural innovation, for taking advantage of emerging technologies, in benefit of small-farmers, the present study explores one of the most ancient crops in the world that privileging the application of tacit knowledge, to become a succulent plant called agave, into the so-called drink of the gods, the mezcal. For this, the purpose of this study is to discover innovation opportunities and reconfiguring knowledge interaction dynamics of the agricultural artisan production of agave-mezcal from Oaxaca, Mexico, using emerging technologies Design/methodology/approach Following a qualitative-quantitative approach, the study was carried out with 44 mezcal producers from Oaxaca, Mexico, through face-to-face session, questionaries’ application and field visits, based on the model of socialization, externalization, combination and internalization (SECI) through Likert-scale questions, combining the non-parametric statistical analysis and digital compass, for the detection of technological opportunities Findings Basing on artisanal process, context-knowledge place, technological resources and SECIs model results, the opportunities must go in the route of labour in the logic of digital performance. In this sense, becomes relevant to develop an easy-use mobile application for improving the interaction of mezcaleros with external agents and another’s producers., A second proposal is the creation of mezcal-tech-hub, thinking as collaborative space, for promoting the interaction producer-to-producer and producer-to-external agent. Originality/value The value of the present study is the empirical description of knowledge dynamics interaction contained in the agricultural artisan production of agave-mezcal through SECI model; the identification of problems, failure or barriers contained in the knowledge interaction dynamics of the agricultural artisan production agave-mezcal; the proposal of innovation opportunities for reconfiguring the knowledge interaction dynamics of the agricultural artisan production agave-mezcal from a developing economy, using emerging technologies

“…However, knowledge management methodology, particularly Nonaka's model, involving commitments, beliefs, experiences, and knowledge, combined with the flexibility and interaction in the identification of expectations of technological routes of [104], is emerging as two complementary methodologies, since one has been the basis for the development and adaptation for traditional knowledge over time [56,105], as well as being the most used and cited [106,107]. The other is applied in detecting technologies based on perspectives, and, in addition to that, both have already been used in the context of Mexico [108][109][110][111].…”

Currently, technology usage is a fundamental asset for creating, developing, and implementing innovations; however, these are not available to everyone, which is accentuated in women with agricultural occupations. The present study develops a proposal of technologies for mezcalilleras’ sustainability from Oaxaca, Mexico, based on a knowledge management methodology, through the application of questionnaires in face-to-face sessions, field visits, and statistical analysis to explore the imbalances enclosed in the agave–mezcal activity seen as its problems, failures, and barriers, as well as its correlation with the identified technological routes. The results reveal that a technological platform creation, the fabrication of fiber optic refractometer, a metal roof construction, the design of a horizontal distiller–fractionator, the employment of metal containers and production of glass bottles, and the generation of a software and an application, are the suitable technologies, according to the mezcalilleras’ requirements. This proposal can be important for academics, policymakers, and producers who wish to revitalize traditional knowledge of the small-scale sectors in Mexico through new ways of interaction with external agents and customers, new ways of production, and previous years’ production analysis.

<p>Antecedentes: Desde sus orígenes las Organizaciones de la Sociedad Civil (OSC) en México fueron pensadas como instancias que deben crear valor público o utilidad social, que contribuya a promover el desarrollo. Por ello la importancia de conocer la influencia de su liderazgo en la gestión de sus proyectos. Método: con el propósito de determinar la influencia de los factores del liderazgo transformacional, transaccional y laissez faire en la imagen y reputación, así como en la responsabilidad social corporativa que pueden incidir en las variables de resultado (satisfacción, esfuerzo extra, efectividad), en la percepción de 303 trabajadores distribuidos entre directivos y subordinados de fundaciones con prácticas de responsabilidad social corporativa en México, a quienes se les suministraron los instrumentos “Adaptación del MLQ” y “Prácticas de Responsabilidad Social”. El estudio es expost facto, no experimental, transaccional. Resultados: los instrumentos mostraron niveles adecuados de confiabilidad y validez. Para contrastar la hipótesis general de investigación se empleó un modelo PLS-SEM con variables latentes, en el que se analizó de forma gráfica y estadística la influencia causal, la prueba se complementó procesando un re muestreo, observando que las hipótesis de trayectorias son beneficiadas en la prueba de significancia estadística a un intervalo del 95%. Conclusiones: el liderazgo transformacional (0.819) influyó en la imagen y reputación, explicando el 67.2% de su varianza, las que, a su vez (0.778) inciden en las variables de resultado manifestando el 60.5% de su varianza. Por otro lado, el liderazgo transformacional (0.741) y el liderazgo transaccional (-0.073) influyeron en la responsabilidad social corporativa, contribuyendo con el 49.3% de su varianza.</p>
