Organisaation innovatiivisuutta edistävät ja estävät tekijät. Case Technology Business Research Center

Tämän työn toimeksiantajaorganisaatio oli Lappeenrannan teknillisen yliopiston alainen, kauppatieteitä, teknologiaa ja tuotantotaloutta työssään yhdistävä tutkimusyksikkö, Technology Business Research Center, TBRC. Erään innovatiivisuustutkimusprojektin (InnoSpring) yhteydessä haluttiin selvittää myös oman tutkimusyksikön innovatiivisuuteen vaikuttavia, edistäviä ja estäviä tekijöitä. Tutkielman tavoitteena oli kartoittaa niitä seikkoja, jotka organisaation - tässä tapauksessa yliopiston tutkimusyksikön - henkilökunnan, projektityöntekijöiden, projektipäälliköiden sekä johdon mukaan vaikuttavat yksikön kykyyn luoda ja omaksua uutta, sen innovatiivisuuteen. Työ toteutettiin focus group-ryhmähaastattelumenetelmällä (kvalitatiivinen tutkimus), joihin osallistuivat omina ryhminään työntekijätaso, projektipäälliköt sekä johto.Haastattelut äänitettiin, litteroitiin ja koodattiin Atlas-Ti-ohjelmistolla. Loppuraportti verkostokuvineen luovutettiin tutkimuslaitokselle heinäkuussa 2005. Ryhmäkeskustelun teemoista ja kysymysten muodosta johtuen tulokset käsittelivät niin tutkimusyksikön nykyistä tilaa kuin eräänlaista "toivetilaa", millainen olisi ihanteellinen ja innovatiivinen työpaikka. Merkillepantavaa oli, että työssä tuli systemaattisesti esiin enemmän innovatiivisuutta edistäviä kuin ehkäiseviä seikkoja - vaikka osa edistävistä seikoista koskikin nimenomaan "toivetilaa". Keskustelluimpia teemoja olivat johtajuus,tavoitteellisuus ja strategian, yhteisen suunnan tarve. Samoin olemassa olevienprosessien kehittäminen, osaamisen (niin oman kuin koko organisaationkin) kokoaminen ja kehittäminen edelleen sekä tulosten jalkauttaminen.

Adoption of electronic commerce tools in business procurement:enhanced buying center structure and processes

Modern procurement is being shifted from paper-based, people-intensive buying systems toward electronic-based purchase procedures that rely on Internet communications and Web-enhanced buying tools. Develops a typology of e-commerce tools that have come to characterize cutting-edge industrial procurement. E-commerce aspects of purchasing are organized into communication and transaction tools that encompass both internal and external buying activities. Further, a model of the impact of e-commerce on the structure and processes of an organization's buying center is developed. The impact of the changing buying center on procurement outcomes in terms of efficiency and effectiveness is also analyzed. Finally, implications for business-to-business marketers and researchers are discussed.

A Graphical Representation Model for Telemedicine and Telehealth Center Sustainability

This study shows the creation of a graphical representation after the application of a questionnaire to evaluate the indicative factors of a sustainable telemedicine and telehealth center in Sao Paulo, Brazil. We categorized the factors into seven domain areas: institutional, functional, economic-financial, renewal, academic-scientific, partnerships, and social welfare, which were plotted into a graphical representation. The developed graph was shown to be useful when used in the same institution over a long period and complemented with secondary information from publications, archives, and administrative documents to support the numerical indicators. Its use may contribute toward monitoring the factors that define telemedicine and telehealth center sustainability. When systematically applied, it may also be useful for identifying the specific characteristics of the telemedicine and telehealth center, to support its organizational development.
