  1. The Atmosphere of inter-Company Cooperation

    The organizational climate construct has greatly contributed to our under-standing of human behaviour and the resulting performance of organizations. It has the merit to link a microfoundation, i.e. individual perceptions of a work environment, with aggregate phenomena such as productivity or innovativeness. In strategic management perceptions of the environment is also grounded as a moderating variable for decisions, behaviours and performance. Directly transposing an organizational climate to inter-organizational phenomena is not possible. A conceptualization of an inter-organizational collaboration climate is proposed and based on the concurrent analysis of inter-organizational climate in strategic management research at dyad and network levels, and of inter-organizational environments distinctive features. A definition and three dimensions are proposed.
  2. Types of Co-Opetition among Local Government Units in Polish Metropolitan Areas

    The article deals with the problem of shaping inter-organizational relations in the context of their cooperation and competition (known also as coopetition) between local government units. Empirical research was conducted in 2015/2016 with the example of self-government units in Polish metropolitan areas. An assumption was made, that the dominant approach used in that matter is cooperation. The main objective of the paper was to 1) prepare a typology of coopetition among chosen units and 2) identify the dominant type. A questionnaire was used as a main research tool, dedicated and addressed to the representatives of local government unit's authorities.
  3. The Trust Ladder and Social Capital as a Basis for the Strategic Management of Companies in the Twenty First Century

    Dynamic changes of the contemporary environment, the increasing economic activity of competing companies, and the potential of organizations leading the economic consolidation within their business ecosystems allow them to act on a large scale and create immense impacts. It calls for a reflection on the durability of this success. Due to the digital revolution, new manufacturing technologies and innovations in products, processes and business models new revenue streams appear together with new lifestyles reflecting the phenomenon called the 'new economy'. These changes are built on trust and social capital shaping human relationships and the propensity to cooperate. Both undergo diverse impacts, which are both positive and negative. The trust ladder is a metaphor illustrating the multi-stage process of building positive supplier-client relationships. Social capital and its re-investment in new areas create a favourable climate for long-term business development. The metaphor of the value creation ladder in strategic management corresponds with the trust ladder and enables the analysis of existing states as well as future developments.
  4. Synergy and Prediction in the Strategy of Mergers and Acquisitions

    Whatever could be the nature of the motivations and objectives of mergers and acquisitions, their goal is to achieve synergy, which is one of the basic characteristics of complex systems related to the effect of emerging properties. In the theory and practice of mergers and acquisitions, the term "synergy" is an important analytical term but also, too often, it is a slogan repeated without deeper reflection by practitioners and theorists. Due to the complexity of the processes of mergers and acquisitions, and due to the links between complexity and ignorance, the identification of potential synergies in the developing strategy of mergers and acquisitions is associated not only with the aim to increase knowledge but also to identify a lack of knowledge. The aim of the article is to provide an initial response to the question to what extent the identification of emerging, unknown effects of mergers and acquisitions that make up their synergy, is associated with the lack of knowledge (ignorance) of decision makers in the process of developing the strategy.
  5. An Attempt to Assess the Factors Determining Production Unit Flexibility - a Practical Interpretation

    The main objective of the article is to develop a set of key areas - from the point of view of experts of manufacturing companies of the agricultural machinery sector - factors determining production unit flexibility, and to determine the level at which - each of the mentioned ones - the manufacturers should implement and currently implement.
  6. A Diagnostic Profile as a Tool in Research on Company Innovation

    The aim of the article is to contrast the approach to research on innovation applied in economics with that applied in management. The author points to the need to adjust the research methods applied by business management researchers to the specific requirements of management as a scientific discipline.
  7. Partner Selection in the Open Innovation Process

    The article discusses the issue of selecting partners in an open innovations process on theoretical and empirical grounds. Presents the phenomenon of innovation in the context of the strategic choice of modern companies, reveals the essence of open innovation versus the closed model, and outlines the ways and criteria for selecting partners in open innovation process described in the literature. The results of the quantitative research carried out in the years 2015-2016 in innovative companies operating in Poland are presented in the empirical part of the article. The analysis revealed the categories of players involved in creating open product and process in-novations, their role in initiating innovation processes, and the level of engagement of each external partner. It was found that the initiative of creating open innovations on the Polish market belongs to the companies themselves and not to external partners. External partners are selected primarily from neighbouring economic pathways (suppliers and customers), and their choice is determined by previous collaborative experiences. Innovative companies operating on the Polish market are very reluctant to cooperate with other categories of potential partners: competitors, self-government units, online communities or scientific research institutions.
  8. The Context of a Business Organization. Theoretical Frameworks

    The article analyses selected theoretical frameworks for explaining the relationships between organizations and their surroundings with an attempt to indicate their importance in the current operating environment of business organizations. The paper is of a theoretical nature and has been based on an in-depth analysis of the cur-rent literature. The analysis of aspects of organizational adaptability and perspectives of population ecology, adaptation perspectives, and entrepreneurial perspectives, as well as the analysis of the determinants of contemporary competitive advantage with special attention to disruptions and emergence leads to the conclusion that problems of disruption, emergence, volatility, paradigm of imbalance, dynamic models and adaptation are the main contextual dimensions. Therefore, it is impossible to solve the adaptation problem from a single actor analysis.
  9. The Strategic Choices of Companies from the Perspective of the Theory of Structuration

    The subject matter of the article is the strategic choice. The author's attention has been focused on the choices understood in a broad sense. The conditions of the functioning of companies, commonly referred to as conditions of unbalance, require other ways of describing and explaining than the ones applied so far, thus stimulation of the search for such theoretical approaches would allow for a deeper insight into the strategic choice. The aim of the article is to determine whether the theory of structuration could be applied in the explanation of strategic choices of companies.
  10. Ambidexterity as a Dynamic Capability in Response to Environmental Uncertainty

    Increasing complexity, intensity and the unpredictability of changes in the environment causes that companies must more often operate under uncertainty. This in turn forces companies to shape and develop dynamic capabilities that enable them to sense and seize opportunities by reconfiguring resources. Using the method of analysis and critique of the literature, the article discusses the concept of ambidexterity as a dynamic capability to balance exploration and exploitation and which therefore can be perceived as predestination for companies operating in uncertain environments.
