The research objective is to investigate the knowledge transfer dynamics from equipment suppliers to hospitals. From a theoretical perspective of knowledge transfer, the inductive and restricting factors of this process were discussed. The qualitative research comprised two case studies of reference hospitals in the north of Angola that have acquired technological equipment from foreign suppliers. The results have shown that factors such as relationship quality and cultural proximity between the knowledge source and the receiver played an important role on knowledge transfer from suppliers to hospitals. The transferring ability and the source motivation and also the absorptive capacity and receiver motivation have relevant influence on knowledge transfer.

The higher education internationalization can be analyzed on several aspects, therefore the present research is justified as it seeks to identify and analyze the main publications aspects in this field of study, pointing out the hot topics of the subject. In order to carry out this study, bibliometric research was used in the Web of Science database, comprising publications on the subject from 2007 to 2016. There were 1146 publications, which evidenced the existence of a large number of authors and institutions that publish on the subject, as well as several sources of publication. Furthermore, most of the studies are focused on education and have English as the predominant language. The terms “globalization” and “university” were identified as hot topics in the theme of study, possibly because they were considered terms correlated to the object of study and not a specific area of study

Document type: Article (Portuguese) Show Abstract

In this descriptive and quantitative desk study, we evaluated the association between CEO reputation and four aspects of corporate performance (innovative, international, operational, market) in Brazilian public firms. The sample consisted of 34 firms managed by CEOs listed on the 2016 Merco Líderes ranking. The findings were submitted to testing of differences between means, Spearman correlation analysis and multiple linear regression. Good CEO reputation was found to have a significant impact on corporate performance. In light of Economic Transaction Cost Theory and Agency Theory, good CEO reputation, as perceived by stakeholders, may be expected to reduce transaction and agency cost and thus improve corporate performance. On the other hand, contradicting the theories adopted in the study, CEO reputation had no influence on multidimensional corporate performance.

Document type: Article (Portuguese) Show Abstract

Problematizations involving the operational dynamics of organizational routines have presented increasing challenges for researchers of the construct, considering the difficulties and circumstantial limitations of the identification of the phenomenon in different environments and contexts of occurrence. In this perspective, through a phenomenographic approach, this research aimed to collect conceptions of external consultants on the identification of organizational routines in their professional experiences. Four different ways of identifying the phenomenon emerged from the reports as a response to this research problem: grounding in artifacts; questioning to the agent; observation of the practice; and collective construction. The present study suggests that the consistency of a punctual understanding of organizational practice, between consultants and agents, and among the agents of the routine, is influenced by relational conditions, reflected in mechanisms of power and trust that involve these subjects, suggesting to the consultants the development of specific competencies to promote the identification of routines in organizations.
