“…The scope and quality of information disclosure are determined by how well-established corporate governance is. The better the governance is, the higher-level information disclosure is because there is limited space for the management to use private information for rent-seeking (Millar et al, 2005;Mete and Belgin, 2021). Much of the current literature on corporate governance revolves around the principalagent theory, viewing corporate governance as the institutional arrangements that must be made among shareholders, the board of directors, and management due to the separation of ownership and control (Ezzeddine and Jarboui, 2017).…”

A new corporate governance model for SOEs with Chinese characteristics was implemented in China in 2016, in which a 4 + 1 (Chinese Communist Party committee, shareholders' meeting, board of directors, board of supervisors + managers) corporate governance structure was formed by integrating the Party organization into the traditional Western 3 + 1 structure (shareholders' meeting, board of directors, board of supervisors + managers), and it was a major breakthrough of the modern enterprise system with Chinese characteristics. With this brand-new institutional arrangement as a quasi-nature experiment, the Propensity Score Matching (PSM) and Differences in Differences (PSM-DID) methods have been used in this paper to empirically test the impact of the corporate governance model with Chinese characteristics on accounting information disclosure of State-Owned Enterprises (SOE). It has been found in the study that the corporate governance model with Chinese characteristics has improved the transparency of accounting information of SOEs in China, but no signi cant contribution to the quality of accounting information has been identi ed. Samples are subdivided in view of the in uence of the hierarchy and internal governance of Chinese SOEs. In central government-owned enterprises or those with a low level of internal control, the new governance model plays a more prominent role in enhancing the transparency of accounting information. The study veri es the positive effect of the corporate governance model with Chinese characteristics in improving the level of accounting information disclosure. Also, the study has practical signi cance in enhancing the corporate governance system with Chinese characteristics.

“…Technology transfer is the movement of technology and knowledge through channels from one organization to another. Mete and Belgin (2021) investigate the impact of knowledge management on organizational performance in Turkey. According to them, there is a significant relationship between knowledge management strategy, the planning, storage and conversion of knowledge performance and the efficiency of the firm.…”

Purpose This study aims to investigate the relationships between firms’ strategic planning (SP), leadership and technology transfer competence (TTC) by specifically incorporating the mediating role of strategic quality management (SQM). Design/methodology/approach This study performs structural equation modeling using AMOS on survey data collected from 200 Turkish firms operating in multiple industries and sectors. Findings This study finds that leadership in Turkish firms operating in multiple sectors is positively associated with SQM. This study further finds that SQM positively influences Turkish firms’ TTC and mediates the roles of SP and leadership in TTC. Research limitations/implications A key research implication from this study relates to the mediating role of SQM in TTC in an emerging economy context. This study highlights that SP and leadership can play an essential role in TTC through the mediating mechanism of SQM. Consequently, SQM emerges as a crucial linking pin in conveying the impact of quality management practices on technology transfer in emerging markets. Practical implications An essential managerial implication of this study relates to the critical roles of leadership, SP and SQM in TTC. For the managers of firms operating in a relatively uncertain emerging context such as Turkey, it is essential to adopt a supportive and empowering leadership style, where open communication and innovative activities are viewed positively and SQM is adopted holistically. Also, SP should be streamlined throughout the firm and followed by SQM to support TTC. Originality/value This paper links the technology (and knowledge) management and the strategy and leadership literature streams by focusing on the mechanisms of technology transfer and delving into the linkages between SQM, leadership, SP and TTC. It specifically presents SP and leadership as precursors to SQM in their joint influence on TTC. Accordingly, this research bridges technology, strategy and leadership research and provides a broader picture of technology transfer that encompasses the joint role of different processes in firms’ TTC.

“…In a study, Koçak et al [23] used a data envelopment analysis (DEA) and bootstrap DEA to study the environmental efficiency of R&D expenditures for energy efficiency, renewable energy, hydro and fuel cells, fossil energy, nuclear energy, and other power and storage technologies in OECD countries. In their study, Matte and Belgin [24] examined the impact of knowledge management (KM) performance on the efficiency of 20 companies operating in R&D in the production of parts and accessories for the motor vehicle industry in Turkey. In their investigation, they employed conventional data envelopment analysis (DEA) and DEA based on weight restrictions for the analysis of data.…”

Reviewing the efficiency of Research and Development (R&D) by giving an equal amount of importance to different R&D actions can make the measuring process too simple, which may cause an inaccurate interpretation of the R&D function and lead to an imprecise interpretation of R&D models. R&D comprises the creative work undertaken on a systematic basis to increase the stock of knowledge, including knowledge of man, culture, and society, and the use of this stock of knowledge to devise new applications. This research provides a two-phase approach to designing an R&D model in the auto battery manufacturing industry based on customer satisfaction. Due to the important role of R&D in customer satisfaction, no study has been conducted in this field and industry. In the first phase, the effective models for R&D management and the indices influencing customer satisfaction in R&D models are identified. In the second phase, the significance coefficients related to the customer satisfaction indices are obtained by using the fuzzy SWARA (Stepwise Weight Assessment Ratio Analysis) as a multi-criteria decision-making method. Furthermore, each model's importance and final priority are calculated by the fuzzy COPRAS (Complex Proportional Assessment) method. Finally, to apply the proposed framework in the battery manufacturing industry, a bi-objective R&D model is presented. The coefficients obtained by the fuzzy COPRAS method are utilized as the input for the proposed model. Therefore, policy-makers and managers can perform their activities based on this method. The obtained results showed that the proposed framework is effective in the case under study.
