This paper provides an extensive empirical evaluation of a policy introduced in Italy at the end of 2012 to incentivize young innovative start-up firms. Using a Regression Discontinuity Design (RDD) we estimate the causal effects of the policy on the firms’ share of intangible assets, turnover, number of employees, and number of partners. Our results indicate that two years after its implementation the policy was effective only in increasing the number of partners, thus attracting private investments, but failed, at least in the short run, in boosting innovation or increasing employment. It follows that the new investors generated by the policy might have been attracted only by the tax benefit and had little interest in innovation.

The study aims is to identify motivations, challenges, and opportunities of successful solvers participating in virtual teams of innovation contests (ICs) organized by an innovation intermediary. Based on 82 interviews of successful solvers, it provides novel insights into ICs. The main motivational factors of successful solvers engaged in problem solving are money, learning, fun, sense of achievement, passion, and networking. Major challenges solvers face include unclear or insufficient problem description, lack of option for communication, language barrier, time zone differences, difficulties in finding suitable team members, framing the results, and difficulties in becoming quick learners and team players. Despite challenges, solvers have many opportunities, such as diversified knowledge, learning culture, developing a different way of thinking, gaining insights from other experts, the ability to work in a diverse environment, options of work after retirement and from distant locations, and a new source of income.

How do we assess new forms of economic organization? As with other innovations, the value of a new organizational form is initially unknown. When assets are traded in financial markets, the information embodied in prices represent one mechanism through which organizational innovations are evaluated. We apply an experimental-learning framework to explore the influence of the capital markets on economic organization, using the conglomerate merger wave of the 1960s and 1970s as an empirical context. In our setting, the initial market popularity of conglomerates, followed by their rapid decline, is indicative of investors attempting to determine the value of a new organizational form. We provide event-study evidence that investors systematically updated their beliefs about the value of the conglomerate form based on new information (positive or negative) about the largest and most newsworthy conglomerates. Our results suggest that financial market participants make judgments not only about specific companies, but about organizational structure itself.

This case is about the history, achievements, and problems of a uniquely run medical center. It has become an award-winning, world-class institution through emphasis on and nurturing of talented, hard-working, and salaried doctors, producing a culture of excellence, innovation, and teamwork. In recent years, as competition for patients has grown, funding and reimbursement have diminished, and patients have demanded better service, the center has had to find ways to provide better patient care in order to maintain its competitive edge.

In August 2005, an investment manager of a hedge fund is considering purchasing an equity interest in a start-up biotechnology firm, Arcadian Microarray Technologies, Inc. The asking price is $40 million for a 60 percent equity interest. Managers of the firm are optimistic about the firm's future performance; the investment manager is more conservative in his expectations. He calls on the help of an analyst with her firm to fashion a counterproposal to Arcadian's management. The tasks for the student are to apply the concept of terminal value, interpret completed analyses and data, and derive implications of different terminal-value assumptions in an effort to recommend a counterproposal. Very little numerical figure-work is required of the student.

Spanish Abstract: El objetivo principal del articulo es proponer un enfoque interdisciplinario y totalizador que permita la transformacion de la naturaleza y el alcance del sujeto-docente de lenguas en Colombia, en el marco del posmetodo, las comunidades de practica, la multialfabetizacion y la multimodalidad. A traves de la revision documental, se hace un acercamiento teorico a la formacion docente en general, para adentrarse en las particularidades de la formacion docente en lengua materna y en lengua extranjera. A continuacion, se plantea la necesidad de reconfi gurar la formacion docente en lenguas desde el marco del desarrollo profesional para el empoderamiento. Finalmente, se presentan marcos conceptuales como el posmetodo, las comunidades de practica, la multialfabetizacion y la multimodalidad, para proponer posibles aplicaciones en la transformacion e innovacion de la formacion docente en lenguas en Colombia.English Abstract: The primary objective of this article is to propose an interdisciplinary and holistic approach to transforming the nature and scope of language-subject teacher education in Colombia, in the era of post-method language teaching, communities of practice, multi-literacies and a multimodal approach. Through a document review, a theoretical approach to teacher training in general is established, before delving into the specifics of educating teachers in their mother tongue and a foreign language. The need to reshape teacher training in languages from the standpoint of professional development for empowerment is proposed, and conceptual frameworks such as post-method teaching, communities of practice, multi-literacies and a multimodal approach are presented as possible applications to transform and innovate language teacher training in Colombia.

This research article focuses on the relationships between, being as teacher and the teacher’s duty discharged by the students of Graduate Diploma Program in Teaching, on completion of Internship. The broad objectives are to analyze the levels of the students as teachers after completion of internship, their performance levels as teachers and to find out the relationships between being as teacher and their teaching duty performance. The sampling groups constitute mentors from the Graduate Diploma Program in Teaching Profession of St. Theresa International College numbering a total of 108 persons. A structured questionnaire was used to gather primary data and the statistical tools of mean, Pearson’s simple correlation moment were applied to analyze the data. The study results found that being as teacher and the teaching duty performed by the students are analogous and at high levels. Also, it is found that the relationships between being as teacher and the teacher’s duty performance by the students of the program after the internship are highly related at statistical significance of .01 and correlation coefficient values of .710.

This study explores relationships between campus leadership and the organizational-level dynamic capabilities that underpin the management of research universities. Our observations suggest that the presence of leaders who marry strategic thinking and capabilities development enhance the likelihood of a university’s competitive fitness and long-term survival. We compare and contrast strategic decisions and leadership propensities of chancellors at UC Berkeley and presidents at Stanford University. Our findings help explain why Stanford has advanced in relation to Berkeley and hint at the challenges and opportunities facing Berkeley chancellors. We also suggest that it is timely for university presidents to begin to manage proactively the university and, to the extent possible, its innovation ecosystem to increase the chances that their institutions will continue to prosper in an increasingly competitive environment that is also exposed to uncertainty and change.
