Background: The Aerospace and Defense industry requires continuous innovation and adaptation. Ambidextrous leadership, which balances exploration and exploitation, plays a crucial role in driving innovative work behavior. Understanding this relationship is important for navigating industry complexities and staying competitive in rapidly changing market conditions. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore the influence of ambidextrous leadership on aerospace and defense firms’ innovation at the individual level. It also deepens the understanding of conditions to improve innovation by examining the moderating role of collaborative climate.  Methodology: This study uses a quantitative research design, specifically structural equation modeling (SEM). Data was collected through a survey questionnaire, with eighty-one valid responses from professionals in the industry. Results and analysis: The study found that open leadership behavior was positively related to innovative work behavior. This means that leaders who show open leadership behaviors, such as being supportive and collaborative, have a greater impact on inspiring and encouraging innovative thinking and behavior among their employees. However, the study did not find a significant relationship between closed leadership behavior and innovative work behavior. This is surprising, as closed leadership behaviors, such as being directive and controlling, have been shown to be positively related to innovation in other studies. One explanation for this finding is that the aerospace and defense industry is a highly regulated industry with strict safety standards. In this context, leaders may be more focused on ensuring that existing products and processes are safe and dependable, rather than encouraging employees to take risks and experiment with innovative ideas. The study also found that collaborative climate was positively related to innovative work behavior. This means a work environment that supports collaboration and teamwork can foster innovation by encouraging employees to share ideas and work together to solve problems. However, the study did not find that a collaborative climate moderated the relationship between open leadership behavior and innovative work behavior. This suggests open leadership behavior positively impacts innovative work behavior regardless of the level of collaborative climate in the workplace. Recommendations for future research: Future research should address the limitations of this study by employing larger samples, objective measures, and exploring additional moderating variables such as organizational size and innovative climate. Longitudinal studies are needed to understand the sustained impact of open leadership behaviors and collaborative climates on innovative work behavior over time. By doing so, we can enhance our understanding of leadership's role in promoting innovation and develop practical recommendations for organizations across diverse industries and contexts.

The premise of the dissertation is that self-management support can be provided and be beneficial within a recovery framework for individuals living with serious mental illnesses.</p> <p><strong>Methods</strong></p> <p>A large regional service was studied as an exemplar of specialized service delivery. Using a van Manen phenomenological study through an occupational therapist lens, the meaning of clients’ experiences with self-management learning events in a diverse sample was examined. Conditions shaping clinicians’ experiences and actions enabling self-management across eight varied settings were identified in a Yin case study with embedded units. Provider triads (occupational therapist-nurse-social worker) from each setting, allowed an examination of patterns by individual, discipline and practice environment. With an integrated knowledge translation approach, both studies informed the strategic creation of an innovation and implementation plan for organizational change.</p> <p><strong>Results</strong></p> <p>Findings created a rich picture of clients’ lifeworlds learning self-management and conditions and mechanisms influencing clinician self-management support practices. Client self-management needs were not routinely addressed by services. Clients experienced eight tasks shaped by contextual structures represented in a model of the work of learning self-management. Self-management was enmeshed in recovery and a personal resource for self-determination and living well. Another model illustrated the complex dynamic relationships underpinning clinicians’ intentions and actions, and key features of clinicians enabling client self-management. A structured approach to delivering self-management support and a learning and embedding initiative were generated.</p> <p><strong>Conclusions</strong></p> <p>The dominance of practice environments offers an opportunity for organizational change. Direction is given to customize self-management support in a conventional mental health service. The conceptualization of self-management support within a recovery framework may benefit all client groups with long-standing conditions.</p> / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

Utifrån dagens litteratur kring projektbaserade organisationer (PBO) kan tre problem identifieras: 1) motsägande resultat gällande om organisationsformen PBO främjar innovation, 2) överdrivet fokus på teknisk innovation i dessa sammanhang samt 3) bristfällig systematik i dessa typer av studier. Av denna anledning har vi genomfört en kvantitativ studie för att bidra med mer systematik i debatten kring PBO och innovation. Vi valde också att studera en annan typ av innovation i PBO-sammanhang, nämligen managementinnovation (MI). Studien syftar till att identifiera om det föreligger ett samband mellan MI och organisationsfaktorerna centralisering, samarbete och kommunikation, överkapacitet samt formalisering. Utöver detta skall studien identifiera om det föreligger något samband mellan den formella organisationsstrukturen PBO och MI, samt om sambanden mellan organisationsfaktorerna och MI är starkare eller svagare i en PBO-kontext. Studien genomfördes i Sverige med hjälp av en enkätundersökning. Urvalet uppgick till 500 företag vilka blev identifierade genom ett slumpmässigt stratifierat urval. Svarsfrekvensen uppgick till 192 företag vars svar sedan analyserades i statistikprogrammet SPSS genom regressionsanalyser. Slutsatsen av studien blev att vi på en femprocentig signifikansnivå bekräftade en av femton hypoteser, nämligen H8c. Hypotesen beskriver att sambandet mellan personalöverkapacitet och MI är starkare i en PBO än i andra organisationstyper. Utöver detta kunde vi bekräfta hypotes 9b på en tioprocentig signifikansnivå. Denna hypotes behandlade formalisering 2 och innebar att sambandet mellan formalisering 2 och MI är starkare i andra organisationstyper än i en PBO. Med detta sagt positionerar sig denna studie bland författarna som hävdar att det inte föreligger något samband mellan PBO och innovation. / We were able to identify three problems from today’s literature about project-based organizations: 1) conflicting results about whether PBOs further innovation or not, 2) excessive focus on technical innovation in this context, and 3) insufficient systematics in these kinds of studies. For that reason, we have carried through a quantitative study to contribute with more systematics in the debate about PBO and innovation. We also chose to study a different kind of innovation in the PBO context, namely Management Innovation (MI) This study aims to identify if there exist a correlation between MI and the organizational factors centralization, teamwork and communication, slack of resources and formalization. Beyond this the study aims to identify if there exist a correlation between the formal organizational structure PBO and MI, and if the connection between the organizational factors and MI is stronger or weaker in a PBO context.  A survey was carried out in Sweden. 500 companies were asked to participate and they were all selected through a random stratified sampling. The response rate was 192 and the information from the questionnaires was then analysed in the statistical software SPSS through regression analysis. With a significance level of five percent this study confirms one out of fifteen hypotheses. The confirmed hypothesis was H8c which states that the connection between personnel slack and MI is stronger in a PBO than other kinds of organizational structures. We also confirmed hypothesis 9b on a significance level of ten percent. H9b states that the connection between formalization 2 and MI is weaker in PBO than other kinds of organizations. Consequently, this study position itself alongside authors and studies that claim that it doesn’t exist a correlation between PBO and innovation.

Contexte : Les premières implantations PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) remontent aux années 80. Le rehaussement récent du PACS au sein d’un centre hospitalier universitaire a permis d’étudier l’introduction d’innovations dans une technologie mature. Objectif : Dans un premier temps, effectuer une revue de la littérature sur les études évaluant la perceptions des utilisateurs de l’implantation des PACS. Deuxièmement, évaluer dans une étude de cas si le niveau d’alignement entre les tâches et la technologie prédit l’utilisation et la perception des bénéfices. Méthodes : Il y a eu une revue systématique de la littérature afin d’identifier les études sur la perception des utilisateurs du PACS. Une adaptation du modèle TTF (Task-Technology-Fit) développé par Goodhue (1995) a servi de base théorique pour l’étude de cas effectuée par questionnaire auto-administré. Résultats : Les modèles recensés dans la revue systématique sont mieux adaptés à des nouvelles implantions PACS qu’à des systèmes matures en évolution. Il y a une corrélation significative entre le niveau de l’alignement, tel que perçu par les utilisateurs, et la perception des bénéfices nets, ainsi que l’utilisation de la technologie. L’étude a démontré un écart entre la perception des utilisateurs et celle des développeurs interviewés. Conclusions : Cette étude supporte la validité du concept alignement tâche-technologie dans l’analyse d’un rehaussement PACS. Il est important de maintenir une interaction soutenue entre développeurs et utilisateurs, qui va audelà de la phase initiale de développement. / Context: The first PACS deployments date to the early 1980’s. The recent upgrade of PACS in a university teaching hospital has offered the opportunity to study the introduction of innovations in a mature technology. Objective: First, to conduct a literature review of studies evaluating user perceptions following deployment of PACS. Second, to evaluate in a case study if task-technology fit predicts utilisation and perceived benefits. Methods: A systematic review of the literature was conducted to identify studies evaluating user perceptions. An adaptation of the Task-Technology-Fit model developed by Goodhue (1995) served as a theoretical basis for the case study conducted with an auto-administered survey. Results: The models used in the studies identified in the review are more suited for initial deployments of PACS, rather than mature systems in a state of continuous evolution. There is a significant correlation between the level of task-technology fit and the users’ perception of net benefits, as well as use. The study also revealed a divide between the perception of users and that of developers involved in product evolution. Conclusion: The findings validate the use of task-technology fit to study a PACS upgrade. It is important to maintain a continuous interaction between users and developers beyond the early phases of product development.

Esta tese se pautou nas interfaces entre a estrutura do Sistema Nacional de Inovação em Saúde e o Sistema Nacional de Saúde - componentes estratégicos para os setores econômico e social do país. Abordou-se o marco jurídico institucional que dá sustentação à Ciência e Tecnologia em Saúde, envolvendo o arcabouço político que ampara a inovação tecnológica no país e os sistemas de regulação voltados a garantir sua sustentabilidade. O propósito desta pesquisa foi o de investigar as relações e os padrões que possibilitam o estabelecimento de vínculos entre os atores e ainda favorecem a formação de redes de pesquisas, buscando identificar quais os elementos que necessitam de maior foco dos gestores de forma que as conexões estabelecidas sejam fortalecidas e facilitem o monitoramento e a avaliação das redes. Caracteriza-se por ser uma pesquisa qualitativa elaborada a partir da teoria crítica, de abordagem quantitativa, incluindo um estudo de caso exploratório e analítico sobre a Rede Nacional de Pesquisa Clínica em Hospitais de Ensino, envolvendo a triangulação de métodos, baseada na observação, na análise de conteúdo e na vertente bibliográfica. Apoiou-se nas bases da Teoria Ator-Rede, ao investigar as relações e os padrões, que acabam por se configurar como vínculos entre pesquisadores e instituições. Os resultados depreendidos do estudo acrescentam novas compreensões sobre a gestão de redes de pesquisas, cuja análise se encontra hoje permeada por uma literatura centrada em atributos individuais. Ao se perceber a pesquisa clínica multicêntrica como estratégica fomentadora de inovação para saúde, esta tese delineou alternativas de gestão para expandir as conexões relacionais passíveis de fomentar, ampliar e fortalecer o Sistema Nacional de Ciência, Tecnologia e Inovação em Saúde e suas associações com as necessidades do Sistema Único de Saúde / This thesis is based on the interfaces between the Brazilian National System for Innovation in Health\'s structure and the Brazilian National Health System - strategic components for the economic and social sectors in the country. The institutional legal framework that gives support to Science and Technology in Health was referred to, considering the policies that sustain technological innovation in the country and the regulatory systems aimed at guaranteeing its sustainability. The goal of this study was to investigate the relationships and the patterns that make it possible to establish ties between actors and that also favor the formation of research networks, seeking to identify which elements require a greater focus from managers in order to strengthen the established ties and to facilitate network monitoring and evaluation. This study is a qualitative one that is elaborated upon critical theory, upon a quantitative approach, and includes an exploratory and analytical case study on the Brazilian National Network of Clinical Research in Teaching Hospitals, comprising a triangulation of methods, based on observation, on content analysis and on bibliographic lines. Upon investigating relationships or patterns, this study relied upon the bases of Actor-Network Theory, which result in ties formed between researchers and institutions. The results gathered from the study added new insight into the management of research networks, whose analysis is currently permeated by literature centered on individual attributes. Upon perceiving multicenter clinical trials as a strategy that fortifies innovation in health, this thesis outlined management alternatives that may expand the relational connections believed to foment, increase and strengthen the Brazilian National Science, Technology and Innovation System and its associations with Brazilian Public Health System needs

INTRODUÇÃO: A curarização residual está associada a maior risco de morte após anestesia. Erros diagnósticos após o uso de bloqueador neuromuscular (BNM) estão relacionados com prevalência de 65-88% de curarização residual pré-extubação traqueal (CRPE). Esse estudo analisou a decisão clínica intuitiva de usar antagonista de BNM antes da extubação traqueal. MÉTODOS: Após aprovação do Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa, a decisão clínica dos anestesiologistas da nossa instituição foi auditada em 150 pacientes. A participação foi voluntária e anônima. As decisões, como se fossem resultados de um teste diagnóstico, foram comparadas à aceleromiografia, com TOF < 0,9 definido como CRPE. Uma árvore de decisão foi estruturada para comparar as diferentes estratégias e uma pesquisa sequencial (Delphi), realizada entre 108 anestesiologistas, extraiu as heurísticas (regras simplificadoras) mais usadas. RESULTADOS: A prevalência de CRPE foi de 77%. A intuição clínica apresentou sensibilidade de 0,35 (0,23-0,49) e especificidade de 0,80 (0,54- 0,94) para CRPE (P= 0,0001). Em uma escala de 0-10 a utilidade esperada da intuição foi menor do que sempre antagonizar (4,1 + 4,4 vs. 8,4 + 3,0, P< 0,05). As heurísticas mais proeminentes foram O intervalo desde a última dose de BNM foi curto e O padrão respiratório está inadequado, citadas por 73% e 71% dos anestesiologistas, respectivamente. Uma hora após dose única de atracúrio comparada ao rocurônio, 69,3% vs. 47,1% (P= 0,0035) dos anestesiologistas não usam antagonista antes da extubação traqueal. Os anestesiologistas têm a percepção de que a prevalência de curarização residual clinicamente significativa é maior na prática dos seus colegas do que na sua própria prática clínica (razão de chances 7,8 (3,8-16,2) P< 0,0001). CONCLUSÕES: A intuição clínica não deve ser usada para descartar a presença de curarização residual. Sempre usar o antagonista é uma estratégia melhor do que usar a intuição clínica para decidir. Os anestesiologistas tomam a decisão intuitiva baseados em uma previsão da duração dos efeitos do BNM e no julgamento qualitativo da adequação do padrão respiratório do paciente. Eles se consideram mais capacitados para evitar a curarização residual do que os colegas. Demonstram confiança excessiva na própria capacidade de prever a duração de ação do BNM e de descartar intuitivamente a presença de CRPE / BACKGROUND: Residual curarization is associated with a higher risk of death after anesthesia. Diagnostic errors after the use of neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) are related to 65-88% prevalence of preextubation residual curarization (PERC). This study analyzed the clinical intuitive decision of antagonizing NMBA before tracheal extubation. METHODS: After IRB approval, this clinical decision was audited in 150 patients. Participation in the study was voluntary and anonymous. Decisions, as if a diagnostic test, were compared to acceleromyography, with TOF<0.9 defined as PERC. A decision tree was structured to compare different decision strategies. A sequential survey (Delphi) was conducted among 108 anaesthesiologists to elicit the most frequently used heuristics (rules of thumb). RESULTS: PERC prevalence was 77%. Clinical intuition presented sensitivity of 0.35 (0.23-0.49) and specificity of 0.80 (0.54-0.94) (P=0.0001). In a 0-10 rating scale, expected utility of intuition was lower than always antagonize all patients (4.1 + 4.4 vs. 8.4 + 3.0, P<0.05). The most salient heuristics were Short interval since the last NMBA dose and Breathing pattern is inadequate stated by 73% and 71% of the anesthesiologists, respectively. One hour after a single dose of atracurium compared with rocuronium, 69.3% vs. 47.1% (P= 0.0035) of the anesthesiologists do not use antagonist before tracheal extubation. They perceive that prevalence of clinically significant residual curarization is higher in their colleagues practice than in their own clinical practice (odds ratio 7.8 (3.8- 16.2), P< 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: Clinical intuition should not be used to rule out residual curarization. Routine antagonism is a better strategy than the use of clinical intuition to make this decision. Clinicians make this intuitive decision based on a forecast of the duration of the effects of NMBA and on a qualitative judgement about the adequacy of the patients breathing pattern. They consider themselves more capable of avoiding residual curarization than their colleagues. They are overconfident in their own capacity to predict NMBA duration and intuitively rule PERC out

Many companies try to create new businesses to face the environmental change and to keep growing. However, these companies face a business predicament of lacking core competencies while establishing new business, thus, usually leading to unsuccessful expansions. Therefore, it is necessary for the companies to seriously take core competencies into consideration as they intend to develop new business through organizational innovations. This study aims to explore the issue of how industrial firms build up their core competencies as they develop new businesses through organizational innovations. A multi-case study approach is used and four companies from the electronics industry in Taiwan are selected as research subjects. The preliminary findings from the study are as follows: 1. Organizational innovations are shown to be conducive to new business development. 2. A reform of corporate managerial systems is indicated to be helpful for enhancing the flexibility of new business development. 3. A re-structure of corporate culture shows a significant impact on the positioning of new business development. 4. Both of technological innovations and administrative innovations indicate a positive relationship with the establishment of the core competencies during the process of new business development. 5. The industrial firms are shown to enhance their methodological competencies through administrative innovations. 6. A holistic innovation based on the culture, organization, institution and managerial systems indicates a positive relationship with the industrial firms’ innovative capabilities and implementation capabilities. Keywords: Organizational Innovation, Technological Innovation, Administrative Innovation, Core Competencies, New Business, the Electronics Industry
