El presente estudio tiene como objetivo analizar el contexto social y económico actual de las mipymes que forman parte de la cadena turística, en función de su capacidad de desarrollo y sostenibilidad en el mercado a partir de cuatro dimensiones: gestión contable, gestión de proyectos y de cooperación, gestión de marketing digital y gestión de talento humano y habilidades blandas emprendedoras, como parte de un estudio para el diseño de un modelo de formación base para los emprendedores turísticos. Este se aplicó en municipios de Sabana Centro y del Sumapaz, cuyos resultados se obtuvieron a partir de una muestra intencionada de 64 mipymes de la cadena turística, localizadas en dichas provincias del departamento de Cundinamarca. Se aplicó una metodología tipo exploratoria, con enfoque descriptivo, apoyada en la investigación acción participativa de los actores de la cadena. En los resultados obtenidos, se evidenció la persistente brecha digital en el sector productivo, así como la falta de una sólida cultura organizacional que contribuya de manera efectiva al rendimiento empresarial. Se destaca especialmente la desconexión existente entre los empresarios y el manejo de los acontecimientos económicos a través de la contabilidad, revelando una carencia en la toma de decisiones basada en la realidad económica debido a la ausencia de instrumentos contables como guías para la planificación y gestión de riesgos económicos. Este distanciamiento se traduce en una limitada gestión para la distribución del riesgo de inversión por parte de los propietarios, quienes enfrentan dificultades significativas en la formulación de proyectos. Esta dificultad, a su vez, repercute en la falta de acceso a financiamiento mixto o a alianzas público-privadas, lo que representa una oportunidad desaprovechada para fortalecer y potenciar los negocios empresariales

Technological tools focused on small businesses allow information to be processed by detecting errors or gaps in the business with the purpose of creating strategies to improve production and processes that can differentiate themselves from the rest of businesses that do not apply these tools in their favor, by obtaining data from sales or any change related to a service in the sector. A mixed qualitative-quantitative approach was used, collecting data on the use and applications of technological tools, surveys will be carried out with the employees and owners of the microenterprise on technological applications. The results confirm the relevance of the use of technological devices, where entrepreneurs or microbusiness owners decide to change from conventional business to use tools that help them improve their establishments. The entrepreneur explores tools that allow them to create, promote and sell products and services in a more agile and orderly way, since with the use of technological tools they can have the possibility of increasing their sales numbers.

This article examines the differences in perceptions of human resource (HR) management effectiveness between small and large businesses. The study finds that large businesses generally perceive their HR practices to be more effective in achieving business goals compared to small businesses. The findings suggest that small businesses may benefit from investing in more formalized HR practices and allocating more resources to areas such as performance management and compensation and benefits. The study emphasizes the importance of HR management in achieving business objectives and highlights the need for different approaches to HR management in small and large businesses.

Este estudo estima a relação entre a complexidade e o crescimento econômico regional do Brasil entre 2008 e 2019. A principal contribuição deste trabalho está na inclusão de pequenas empresas sem empregados e microempreendedores individuais na construção dos indicadores de complexidade. Para isso, foram utilizados, além dos dados da RAIS, aqueles de CNPJ fornecidos pela Receita Federal. Foram calculados três índices de complexidade com bases de dados distintas: ICEA(empresas, incluindo MEI), ICEB (empresas, exceto MEI) e ICEV (apenas vínculos empregatícios). Regressões de crescimento, com os devidos controles, mostraram que esses novos indicadores de complexidade estiveram associados ao crescimento econômico das microrregiões no período. Os resultados reforçam a importância de atenção à metodologia de cálculo das medidas de complexidade. Apesar das limitações do estudo e das características do período, a hipótese de que a complexidade local influencia o crescimento econômico não foi refutada.

El adecuado manejo de conflictos entre la gerencia y los empleados es crucial para el éxito y desarrollo de las pequeñas y medianas empresas, siendo la confianza y el estilo de liderazgo factores mediadores importantes en ese proceso. El presente artículo se enfoca en analizar la influencia de la confianza y el estilo de liderazgo en la gestión de conflictos, desde la perspectiva de los gerentes de estas empresas en Ecuador. Se empleó un paradigma cuantitativo y se realizó un estudio exploratorio descriptivo mediante el uso de encuestas y cuestionarios. Se aplicó el Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) para medir el estilo de liderazgo y la escala DUTCH para evaluar la variable confianza y el estilo de gestión de conflictos. La muestra de estudio consistió en 341 gerentes. Los resultados revelaron que la confianza juega un papel crucial en la creación de estilos de liderazgo útiles para la gestión de conflictos y que el liderazgo transformacional y transaccional tienen una influencia positiva en la confianza de los empleados. Los líderes y gerentes de pymes en Ecuador deberían prestar mayor atención a la construcción de un ambiente de trabajo de confianza y aplicar estrategias de liderazgo adecuadas según las situaciones que enfrenten.

Business consultancy is a fundamental tool in the strategic management of an organization. It offers valuable insights, specialist knowledge and personalized guidance to help companies achieve their strategic objectives and improve their performance. Thus, the general objective of this article was to address the relevance of the consultancy process in the strategic management of small companies, highlighting how this process can help in achieving the objectives established by it. The organizational context reveals a complex interaction between personal and professional factors that directly affect the company's progress. The absence of management tools based on scientific approaches in Small Businesses (EPP) is evident, leading to imbalances and even bankruptcies. Here, the crucial role of strategic planning as a management tool stands out, providing short and long-term guidelines and actions to avoid surprises and anticipate possible challenges. This study seeks to contribute to the discussion about the relevance of business consultancy in the design of strategic planning in small companies. It is essential to explore the difficulties faced by these companies in preparing and implementing strategic planning, investigating whether the main barrier lies in managers' lack of knowledge about its application, often requiring guidance from external professionals.

En Argentina, el sector agropecuario ha tenido un lugar destacado en la economía nacional. Con el objetivo de analizar el margen bruto, esta investigación de estructura teórica-empírica, de diseño no experimental, descriptivo y transversal, ha encuestado 67 productores sojeros del domo agrícola de la Provincia del Chaco. Los hallazgos incluyen el modelo de negocio, el protocolo agronómico y el margen bruto como indicador que permite comparar resultados parciales -entre actividades, cultivos, tecnologías y campañas- al considerar aquellos costos que le son directamente atribuibles a cada unidad de costeo. Si bien, en el sector agrícola, es ampliamente usado por su practicidad, parte de la doctrina reconoce sus limitaciones al excluir importantes componentes de los cargos globales del ente y al establecer, de forma errónea, una relación causal con el volumen de actividad basada en considerar como sinónimos: costos directos y variables. Dicha causalidad se aprecia mediante la contribución marginal y es importante que el asesoramiento a empresas agrícolas ofrezca esa alternativa dado que, desde el punto de vista técnico, permite explicar los resultados relacionados con la ges­tión ligando los costos e ingresos ante cambios en el nivel de operación.

Objetivo: Identificar as práticas contábeis gerenciais utilizadas nas organizações de comércio varejista na Região Leste da cidade de Porto Alegre (RS). De forma complementar, investiga-se o efeito da pandemia do Covid-19 e a importância atribuída aos relatórios financeiros e instrumentos gerenciais e de sistemas de análise de dados para a tomada de decisão. Metodologia: Pesquisa descritiva com abordagem quantitativa, mediante levantamento por meio de questionário realizado com proprietários/sócios, administradores e colaboradores de organizações de comércio varejista na Região objeto do estudo, totalizando amostra não probabilística e por acessibilidade de 26 empresas. O questionário contemplou perfil dos respondentes; dados sobre a gestão; importância e uso dos instrumentos gerenciais e relatórios financeiros; e questões abertas para coleta de informações complementares. Resultados: As empresas são em média microempresas, com decisões centralizadas, pouco uso de instrumentos gerenciais e entendem a contabilidade como um apoio à área fiscal. Os instrumentos gerenciais menos utilizados são Balanced Scorecard e ciclo de vida do produto e algumas empresas nem utilizam controles operacionais e financeiros básicos, como de estoques, contas a pagar e receber e planejamento estratégico. Ainda, atribuem maior importância aos instrumentos gerenciais do que os utilizam. Contribuições do Estudo: Com base na percepção de importância dos relatórios financeiros e dos instrumentos gerenciais, baixo nível de formação dos gestores, pouco conhecimento e utilização das práticas de gestão, infere-se que quanto maior a complexidade das ferramentas gerenciais menor é a importância atribuída pelos gestores às mesmas. Isso refletiu no enfrentamento da pandemia, houve poucas mudanças gerenciais para assegurar o desempenho empresarial.

Existe um escasso número de pesquisas que analisam a configuração da capacidade absortiva em empresas de países emergentes, como é ocaso do Brasil. O presente estudo buscou analisar as práticas que as pequenas e medias empresas de base tecnológica brasileiras aplicam para otimizar os fluxos de conhecimento e consequentemente, alavancar as inovações organizacionais. Com esse objetivo, a pesquisa utilizo uma abordagem qualitativa para analisar dados de um total de 11 empresas de base tecnológica. Os dados foram coletados por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas, observação não participante e análise documental. Os principais resultados apontam que as práticas de capacidade de absorção são determinantes da inovação organizacional, a exemplo de: adaptação o conhecimento externo a uma nova tecnologia para criar um novo produto; e o desenvolvimento da capacidade de aplicar o conhecimento interno e externo em patentes e ou produtos de softwares inovadores para o mercado. Também evidenciaram-se diferenças nas práticas aplicadas por empresas de um mesmo setor, e nessa linha, constatou-se que que as empresas com maior tempo de atuação no mercado tendem a possuir mais práticas implementadas, o qual permite alavancar seus processos de inovação. Nossos resultados fornecem evidencias concretas sobre como alocar os recursos do conhecimento para maximizar seu potencial para alavancar inovações organizacionais.

El desarrollo en América Latina y el Caribe debe pensarse como un problema de restricción externa, donde se han impuesto discursos que impiden cualquier proceso de convergencia con las economías desarrolladas. Por esto, se hace necesario cuestionar los fundamentos teóricos de tales discursos, demostrando que, en su mayoría, han sido controvertidos y declarados inconsistentes; transformando tales posturas en ideológicas y nunca coherentes. Así pues, en este artículo se busca afrontar los desafíos del desarrollo que enfrenta la región a partir de un análisis teórico alternativo que nos acerque a una concepción global de los conflictos socio-económicos del desarrollo y nos permita sostener postulados normativos para contribuir al debate por el desarrollo de nuestras naciones, abogando siempre por políticas de industrialización y de crecimiento vía demanda efectiva.

Purpose: To identify the managerial accounting practices used in retail organizations in the Eastern Region of the city of Porto Alegre (RS). In a complementary way, the effect of the Covid-19 pandemic and the importance attributed to financial reports and management instruments and data analysis systems for decision making are investigated. Methodology: Descriptive research with a quantitative approach, by means of a survey through a questionnaire carried out with owners/partners, administrators and employees of retail organizations in the region object of the study, totaling a non-probabilistic and accessibility sample of 26 companies. The questionnaire contemplated the profile of the respondents; management data; importance and use of management instruments and financial reports; and open questions to collect additional information. Results: Companies are on average micro-companies, with centralized decisions, little use of managerial instruments and understand accounting as a support to the tax area. The least used management tools are the Balanced Scorecard and product life cycle, and some companies do not even use basic operational and financial controls, such as inventories, accounts payable and receivable, and strategic planning. Still, they attach greater importance to managerial instruments than they use them. Contributions of the Study: based on the perception of importance of financial reports and management tools, low level of training of managers, little knowledge and use of management practices, it is inferred that the greater the complexity of management tools, the less importance attributed by managers to them. This was reflected in the face of the pandemic, there were few managerial changes to ensure business performance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

O objetivo desse estudo foi de conhecer e analisar a experiência dos empresários, donos de pequenos negócios sergipanos no processo de registro de marca. O estudo é baseado na relação entre o registro de marca e o porte da empresa e utiliza diversos estudos (Mamede, Fernandes, Godinho, 2011; Singh, 2018; Dinlersoz et al., 2018; Pinto et a.l, 2018) que comprovam que as pequenas empresas registram menos as suas marcas que as grandes empresas. Foi realizada uma pesquisa qualitativa com 45 donos de pequenos com ênfase nas suas motivações e nas dificuldades encontradas para realizarem o registro de suas marcas negócios formalizados de diferentes portes (MEI, ME e EPP) e setores econômicos (indústria, comércio e serviço). Para a coleta dos dados, foram realizadas entrevistas, e seguiu-se um roteiro semiestruturado. Os resultados apontam que 100% das empresas não possuem o registro de suas marcas, a maior parte dos empresários (91%) desconhece o processo de registro de marca, 98% dos empresários querem fazer o registro para se proteger dos concorrentes, e a principal dificuldade apontada por 87% dos empresários é não conhecer o processo de como solicitar o registro de marca. O estudo contribui para a discussão sobre quais são as ações que podem ser desenvolvidas e implementadas com a finalidade de aumentar a quantidade de pequenos negócios com a proteção de suas marcas, por meio do registro no Sistema Marcário.

La construcción de redes sociales permite revisar y evaluar los flujos de ideas, determinar los problemas existentes en el intercambio de conocimiento e implementar cambios para promover y mejorar la colaboración en las organizaciones. Esta investigación tiene como objetivo analizar las redes sociales que se forman en organizaciones ecuatorianas, particularmente pequeñas, para influir en la efectividad de la transmisión de información, transferencia de conocimiento y, finalmente, en el desempeño organizacional. Se seleccionaron cuatro pequeñas empresas a través de un muestreo por juicio, y con la utilización del software Gephi para el estudio de redes sociales. Los resultados defienden la aplicación de redes sociales en el contexto de las organizaciones para permitir identificar las falencias y apuntar a mejoras por parte de la administración. Se concluye la utilidad de las redes sociales para descubrir el flujo de ideas, experiencias y conocimiento entre los miembros de las organizaciones estudiadas y su impacto en el desempeño de las mismas, destacando la necesidad de ampliar la aplicación de técnicas, como el análisis de redes sociales, al estudio de la gestión del conocimiento en las organizaciones, para contribuir a proporcionar más rigor científico a este campo.

O objetivo deste estudo é saber como as pequenas empresas em um país emergente melhoram a eficácia dos ajustes estratégicos em relação a intensidade da concorrência no mercado. A pesquisa propõe que, quando a concorrência no mercado é intensa, essas pequenas empresas recorrem as estratégias dos tipos prospectora ou defensiva para melhorar o seu desempenho. Os dados foram coletados de 107 pequenas empresas localizadas no Vietnã. PLS-SEM foi utilizado para avaliar o modelo de pesquisa proposto. Os resultados sugerem que, quando a concorrência no mercado é intensa, apenas ajustes estratégicos com orientação prospectora levam as pequenas empresas a alcançar um desempenho superior. O estudo contribui para a literatura de quatro formas. Em primeiro lugar, amplia a compreensão atual sobre o tema dos ajustes estratégicos ao abordar os efeitos mediadores do tipo de estratégia. Em segundo, contribui para a crescente literatura sobre a teoria da contingência na gestão estratégica de pequenas empresas. Terceiro, a pesquisa oferece uma compreensão mais profunda das características únicas dos países emergentes, características essas que são responsáveis pela ineficiência da estratégia defensiva. Em quarto lugar, o presente estudo supera as limitações de estudos anteriores relacionados ao uso de construtos de item único para operacionalizar as variáveis da estratégia.

Purpose: To evaluate the relationship between organizational culture and the leadership performed by managers of micro and small companies. Methodology: The research has a quantitative and descriptive approach. Self-administered questionnaires applied to managers were used as a data collection instrument, resulting in a sample of 82 respondents. For data analysis, descriptive and correlational techniques were used. Results: The results showed that the transactional leadership style was the most perceived in managers and the type of current predominant culture was the clan culture. When testing the conjectured hypotheses, different relationships between organizational culture and its dimensions were found with leadership styles. Clan culture showed correlation with all dimensions. Practical implications: In practical terms, the research will be able to contribute to the micro and small companies of intimate fashion and their managers, presenting new perspectives of management and development of competitive strategies, from the understanding of the leadership styles of the managers and the organizational culture of the company. Originality: Based on the research found, it appears that both organizational culture and leadership have been component variables of some mediation and moderation models that relate personal and organizational variables, but publications have not been identified in the literature that directly investigate the culture and its relationship with leadership styles in small textile companies.

Gestionar el conocimiento es fundamental para innovar con éxito. En este sentido el objetivo fue analizar la gestión del conocimiento mediante la socialización, externalización, combinación e internalización, así como identificar posibles relaciones entre ellas y la innovación que desarrollan las pequeñas empresas de manufactura en México. A partir de una encuesta, con una aproximación cuantitativa, transversal y correlacional, se demostró que la socialización del conocimiento es la dimensión menos valorada y la internalización es la más alta. En el modelo multivariado que integra las cuatro dimensiones como proceso, la externalización a diferencia de las otras no es una variable predictora de la innovación. Se espera que las pequeñas y medianas empresas incrementen la conversión de su conocimiento explícito a tácito con el fin de lograr una innovación exitosa.
