“…Indeed, for many years, it was simply assumed that OCBs contribute to firm-level performance. In recent years, researchers have sought to confirm this assumption empirically with generally supportive, but sometimes equivocal, results (e.g., Allen et al, 2015). Perhaps the reason for this situation is that empirical research has not been guided by well-grounded theory.…”

“…The proposed relationship between OCBs and organizational outcomes has been generally supportive empirically (Allen, Adomdza, & Meyer, 2015;Podsakoff, Aherne, & MacKenzie, 1997) and conceptually (Organ et al, 2006: 200-202). These studies, however, have been largely based on the a priori assumption that such a relationship does in fact exist -with little theoretical justification for that assumption (Podsakoff, Podsakoff, MacKenzie, Maynes, & Spoelma, 2014).…”

“…Innovation critically influences in the viability of an organization, thereby justifying its degree of durability over time (Damanpour & Gopalakrishnan, 1998;Allen, Adomza & Meyer, 2015), and in the mobilizations of their social and economic structures (Cheng, Chang & Li., 2013). To put it in terms of Zahra and Covin (1994, pp.…”

Innovation management from the inside: An approach from attention and everyday praxis

Purpose: We attempt to deepen the understanding of innovation management from the attention and everyday life.Design/methodology: Following a micro-sociological approach along with social constructivism, qualitative and inductive methods are used. The methodological design responds to the Grounded theory. Focusing on organizational units of innovation management, the empirical sample consists of a central case study coupled with six satellite case studies. For all cases, an in-depth review of corporate documentation is carried out. During 2016, an indepth ethnography had been carried out in the case of a central study, including interviews with each participant; at the end of the year, qualitative interviews were carried out in satellite study cases. Findings:The research results on an emerging theory establish a transverse movement crisscrossing an organization, which in turn diffuses organizational attention as regards the inputs of innovation, largely contributing to the fact that innovation management units' experience multifocality, and that the agenda of their agents become volatile. In addition, the micro-sociological positioning offers a new vision in managing innovation, regardless of linear or schematic representations. Originality/value:The originality of the present study is in two sense: the conceptual framework explores innovation management for the first time through attention; under the methodological framework, we leave aside the hegemonic quantitative-structural approach, to focus the study in the everyday life of Innovation Project Managers (the organizational agents), who actually go on to implement innovation management. Thus, we elude the discursive rhetoric of innovation to cling to the real praxis, that by which organizations will get results and survive.

“…Um dos exemplos da relação entre inovação e o controle na gestão organizacional pode girar em torno da possível inibição da motivação dos empregados ser causada por tais controles, além de reduzir as oportunidades (GAGNÉ;DECI, 2005). Portanto, elevados níveis de controle restringem as habilidades e capacidades dos empregados no uso do poder discricionário que muitas das vezes resultam em conhecimentos e habilidades necessárias para a organização (DECI; CONNEL; RYAN, 1989, ALLEN;ADOMDZA;MEYER, 2015).…”

Este estudo objetiva verificar as relações entre as práticas de controle gerencial e inovação adotadas pelas empresas vinculadas ao Porto Digital. Foram obtidos 30 questionários válidos na pesquisa, objetivando identificar há relação entre as características da empresa e inovação (hipótese 1), concluindo-se que as empresas que prestam contas aos sócios tendem a não investir em inovação, sugerindo que talvez haja uma preocupação de curto prazo com o resultado da empresa. O estudo também analisou outras duas hipóteses, indicando que algumas práticas gerenciais tradicionais estão associadas a existência de P&D (rejeitando a hipótese 2, ex.: orçamento e avaliação de desempenho), e não evidenciando significância entre práticas contemporâneas e P&D (hipótese 3). A fim de encontrar outras proxies para inovação e constatação da diferença entre práticas gerenciais tradicionais e contemporâneas, foi utilizada a análise fatorial. Verificou-se associação positiva entre uso de técnicas mais avançadas e gestão de pessoas mais permissiva rejeitando a ideia de restrições advindos do controle interferindo na gestão de pessoas. Adicionalmente, verificou-se que a flexibilização do horário dos funcionários não é considerada uma prática que proporciona inovação e também não costuma ser praticada mesmo por aquelas empresas que se dizem mais inovadoras.
