“…Based on the literature, we can say that despite -or maybe because of -the fact that since 2000 over twenty definitions of social entrepreneurship have appeared (e.g. Fowler 2000;Lasprogata, Cotton 2003;Mair, Marti 2006;Perrini 2006, Zahra, Gedajlovic, Neubaum, Shulmann 2006Brouard, Larivet 2009), the concept is not still clearly defined.…”

This paper compares the way of perceiving and implementing social innovations in companies and social enterprises in Poland with those in Europe. Special attention is paid to internal social innovations, so-called workplace innovations (WPI), and the reasons and outcomes of their introduction in companies, both in Poland and in other European countries. Moreover, the paper investigates the relationship between the need for internal social innovations and positive employment relations in analyzed entities. The research findings prove that introducing innovations, including social innovations, is mainly driven by the need to improve a company’s performance. Among social innovations which both companies and social enterprises value is investment into improving employees’ work conditions. Moreover, for more than half of Polish companies and social enterprises the need for innovations is related to creating development opportunities, higher work flexibility, better social and life conditions of employees, as well as supporting employee’s reconciliation between work and family life. These reasons for introducing social innovations were also noted by both managers and employees in other European companies. The paper also shows the links between issues of internal social innovations and positive employment relationships. The presented research findings prove that positive relationships among employees are significantly and positively correlated with a broad approach to the need for introducing social innovations. Moreover, the paper points out that positive employment relations are perceived as an important outcome of workplace innovation practices in European companies.

“…Au plan des interactions, le citoyen peut connecter diverses personnes entre elles, que ce soit épisodiquement dans le cadre d'un club à liens faibles, ou sur une base méthodique avec la constitution et l'animation d'un réseau. Au registre des biens et services, le citoyen peut contribuer, à titre de collaborateur ou de leader, à la création et au développement d'entreprises de type privé, économie sociale ou sans but lucratif et son initiative peut être empreinte d'engagement civique si elle a des retombées dans la collectivité (Brouard, Larivet et Sakka ). La promotion de l'entrepreneurship est d'ailleurs devenue, à certains endroits, un thème important de l'agenda municipal.…”

Sommaire L'engagement civique local connaît un regain d'actualité qui s'explique par l'évolution du rôle des municipalités dans l'ensemble de l'action étatique et de ses conséquences sur l'exercice de la citoyenneté locale. L'intensification de l'engagement civique est bénéfique autant pour la démocratie locale que pour la gouvernance locale, tout en accentuant les tensions entre les deux. Si l'on veut stimuler l'engagement civique, encore faut‐il l'appréhender dans toutes ses dimensions, alors qu'il est souvent réduit à la participation formelle aux processus décisionnels. Afin de prendre en compte toutes ses dimensions, cet article propose une typologie des rôles que jouent les citoyens dans leur collectivité locale. Cette typologie opère une segmentation substantive du statut de citoyen local qui permet de repérer les multiples manifestations de l'engagement et de toutes les valoriser. Elle jette aussi un éclairage sur les défis spécifiques d'un management local qui se centrerait moins sur ce que fait l'administration et davantage sur ce qu'apportent les citoyens, engagés à divers titres et niveaux.

To this end, they use competitive intelligence techniques, such as benchmarking, information management and so on (Brouard et al, 2010). Iranian medical science universities compete with other organizations in obtaining funding as well as promoting academic status in national and international ranking systems.…”

The research was conducted through semi-structured interviews.FindingsThe purpose of acquiring information in competitive intelligence process is to meet organizational and individual information needs in active and passive ways. The characteristics of information acquisition and how to acquire it are varied. Enablers include the information sources, individual, organizational characteristics and environmental pressures.
