Roumy, Mathieu. "Modélisation et pilotage des capacités d’Innovation organisationnelle pour favoriser la capacité d’Innovation de la grande entreprise, cas d’étude : SNCF Réseau." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Bordeaux, 2022. http://www.theses.fr/2022BORD0127.
Full textLarge companies evolve in a complex and uncertain social, climatic, economic and now health environment that challenges mechanical determinism and Cartesian logic. In addition, there is a 4th industrial revolution. To survive, they must evolve and increase their capacity for innovation. Most existing studies have focused on technological innovation, neglecting the non-technological dimension of innovation, commonly called "organizational innovation". However, the latter allows large companies to take into account a set of factors that promote their capacity for innovation and anchor it in their routines. The objective is then, thanks to a systemic and transdisciplinary approach, to identify these factors, which we call "Organizational Innovation capabilities". They include the dynamic capabilities of the company as well as the antecedents of organizational innovation. Indeed, non-technological innovation is often perceived as a vague and heterogeneous concept. It is therefore necessary to provide companies with models, methods and tools that make the concept concrete and operational. Nevertheless, nowadays, enterprise modeling has its limits for, on the one hand, the representation of a large enterprise that we assimilate to a complex and open "organic" socio-technical system and, on the other hand, for the representation and management of Organizational Innovation capacities. Thus, within the framework of a CIFRE agreement with the company SNCF Réseau, the IMS laboratory of the University of Bordeaux and the Icube laboratory of the University of Strasbourg, we propose a conceptual framework of the large company, of organizational innovation as well as an approach of analysis and recommendation of the capacities of Organizational Innovation, based on our own model of the organizational innovation for a large company This thesis work has therefore led to the development of a meta-model that allows the large company to have a systemic vision of itself in order to improve its innovation capacity. The model is composed of three systems "Organization-Territory-Network of actors," and makes it possible to highlight the capacities of Organizational Innovation within the systems in a logic of characterization and piloting of those in particular thanks to the evaluation of their impacts and their priorities. Our approach is based on a case study using a quantitative multi-criteria methodology. In the end, this thesis is the source of several contributions. First, the decompartmentalization of sciences allows us to study the antecedents of organizational innovation linked to the territory and to the networks of actors, beyond the classical approaches that generally privilege the internal antecedents of the organization. Secondly, we give a central place to human and social dimensions, which are essential, as is a better understanding of their interactions, both formal and informal (e.g. corporate culture, social climate, knowledge, leadership, etc.). Finally, the study of the impact of Organizational Innovation capabilities that we propose has never been done before for a large company (work on SMEs exists). Thus, the innovation capacity of a large company is dependent on the interactions between the territory, the systems that make it up, its networks of actors and the socio-technical systems of the organization. These results lead to recommendations for a better management of the organizational innovation capacity that is anchored in the company's culture

Full textThe thesis analyzes the strategic deployment of firms in a High-Velocity Environment through dynamic capabilities. It provides a study of a particular type of dynamic capability – dynamic relational capabilities – through firm’s open innovation strategies in the biopharmaceutical sector. In the first part, we offer a theoretical development of dynamic relational capabilities and open innovation strategies. In this part, we will consider that firms’ dynamic relational capabilities are expressed concretely in open innovation strategies – as a way to manage uncertainty stemming from High Velocity Environments. In the second part, we show empirically the relationship between dynamic relational capabilities and open innovation strategies by studying the case of various firms in the biopharmaceutical industry– Big Pharmas (Sanofi) and biotech start-ups. The thesis shows that in the High-Velocity Environments, managing uncertainty implies a firm’s organizational memory modification through dynamic relational capabilities. Specifically, these capabilities are expressed in open innovation practices. In the biopharmaceutical sector in particular, all kind of firms adopt this type of strategies in order to manage the uncertainty coming from recent evolutions

Full textThis thesis stems from recent developments of research dealing with organizational capabilities to innovate. The traditional approach of the strategic management of innovation or corporate entrepreneurship appears to be prisoners of an “action-structure” duality. In contrast, our research aims at grasping the intraorganizational dynamics which are at work to give sense associate to innovative activities and innovation. Calling upon contributions from the field of intraorganizational institutions, we examine those dynamics as (a) productions of institutionalized forms around innovation, (b) effects on the innovative activities, and (c) their ordering in an institutional work. The methodological design of our research consists in an extended case method based upon four case studies. Secondary data were collected and semi-structured interviews were the conducted and submitted to a qualitative analysis. The results of this research suggest that intraorganizational institutions are a relevant theoretical frame to describe sensemaking around innovation and innovative activities within organizations. This thus helps better understand organizational capabilities to maintain innovation. Through a process of institutionalization, members of the organization and groups share a common understanding of the organization’s “innovation patrimony”. This social construct helps them deal with the anxiety attached to innovating. Organizational capabilities to maintain innovation rely on resilient capacities of “innovation-institutions” to give sense either directly via the institutionalized or more indirectly via the institutionalizing

Full textFaced with the complexity of their environment, banks are both jostled and stimulated by new entrants, and constrained by the new regulatory format. In the banking sector, the question of innovation, and even more its organization and its management, are thus essential topics for reflection. Our doctoral research thus proposes to study the innovation process of a regional retail bank from the perspective of dynamic capacity theory. In this thesis, we choose to study five organizational initiatives launched at regular intervals by a regional retail bank: Crédit Agricole d'Aquitaine. These new devices, internal and external, aim to feed the support organization with new knowledge. We propose to read these practices in light of the model developed by Teece (2007) and to transpose the three phases of its analysis (Sensing, Seizing, Transforming) into the studied case. The results of this thesis consist, on the one hand, in describing a nascent but very real initiative of innovation within the banking entity. On the other hand, we identify difficulties of connection between these initiatives and the support organization (diffusion of new knowledge, transformation of practices, evolution of behaviors). Another interest of our research is to demonstrate the relative fragility of Teece's dynamic capacity model (2007), which only partially applies to the investigated banking case

Full textContrary to past studies on imitation, this research proposes an approach from a capabilities perspective.Our objective is to identify the capabilities that an organization can develop in order for its imitationprocess to be successful in competitive markets. We identify, define and distinguish different types ofimitations using the concept of “dynamic capabilities” due to its potential to explain the organization’sreaction to the market through the mobilization and reconfiguration of its resources and competencies.To identify such capabilities, we investigate the decisions to imitate with respect to the banking cardsmarket using a qualitative research strategy with multiple case studies and an abductive approach. Theresults show that Moroccan retail banks develop imitation capabilities (absorptive capacities, learningcapabilities through the observation of competitotrs, capabilities to collect information, and R&Dimitative capacities) according to the sought type of imitation which depends to an extent on the size ofthe bank. Some of the developed capabilities are considered to be dynamic. These results contribute tothe current body of knowledge on imitation and dynamic capabilities. However, this research presentscertain limitations inherent to the adopted methodology; hence it suggests some improvements given thestate of infancy of the approach to imitation by the concept of dynamic capabilities
Cosimi, Luca. "Une microfondation comportementale de l'administration publique : les capacités cognitives et le capital social ont-ils un impact sur les capacités dynamiques au sein des collectivités territoriales ?" Thesis, Université Côte d'Azur, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020COAZ0007.
Full textRecently public administration, strategic management and organizational behaviour have found an intersection in behavioural microfoundation of dynamic capabilities. This thesis starts by defining this field and keywords of the research question. The aspects are treated through literature reviews and empirical analyses following a positivistic vision. The attention is on public organizations. After discussing the evolution of paradigms, such as New Public Management and Network Governance, the investigation is limited to local governments. Municipalities are characterized by proximity to external stakeholders and the possibility to apply strategic concepts, such as dynamic capabilities, which have been mainly a crucial factor in the private sec-tor. Two dynamic capabilities are relevant: innovation and ambidexterity. The thesis defines these constructs and studies their antecedents. In microfoundation, two major fields are cognitive capabilities, related to psychology, and social capital, connected to sociology. The study highlights knowledge-based relationships within and outside organizations with three elaborations: the development of a model of knowledge management, a review on internal relations, another review concerning external networking. The literature on individual cognitive capabili-ties is vast. The focus is on mindfulness and political skill. Both constructs are defined and links to social capital and dynamic capabilities are elaborated. Individual and multilevel hypotheses are developed for each construct. The following parts answer these hypotheses at the individual level empirically. The multilevel hypotheses are left at the theoretical side. They are useful for future research, having collected data also at the organizational level. The first step concerns a case study in a local government through social network analysis, assessing internal relation-ships through an ego-network data collection. This exploratory research shows links between internal social capital and perceived innovation. Secondly, a section discusses methodological choices and good practices to build a questionnaire. The debate oncommon method biases al-lows an evaluation of the limits and strengths of the survey. The questionnaire includes scales already validated with translation-back-translation. The ambidexterity scale was adapted for public organizations. For external networking, there is not a single scale used identically in academic articles. Empirical studies are analysed and various items related to different external stakeholders are evaluated with a team of scholars in public management and public servants. The survey is administered in Italian local governments. Data collection is significant: 551 municipal employees working in 50 municipalities answered the questionnaire. In particular, 484 employees in 46 municipalities filled in the part about ties with colleagues. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses evaluate the structures of measurements and allow to evaluate the reliability and validity of measurements. The microfoundation hypotheses of innovative behaviour and individual ambidexterity are tested statistically with OLS linear regression presented in a hierarchical way and with the option to control for nested effects at the level of municipalities. A second methodology, Hierarchical Linear Modelling confirms results. In order to validate these results and to analyse in-depth mediation hypotheses, a third methodology based on Structural Equation Modeling is conducted. The results confirm that cognitive capabilities, mindfulness and political skills, and social capital, internal and external, may have positive effects on individual dynamic capabilities in local governments. Results are discussed on the contribution that this thesis provides in methodological, managerial and theoretical terms

Full textAnalysis of the factors that influence firms' organizational choices in the field of R&D is a central theme of management literature. However, due to rapid changes in the environment, available research is of limited use in explaining the development of collaborative relationships in R&D. Our research proposes a new comparative framework in which we incorporate two approaches that are usually presented as antagonistic: transactional analysis and the knowledge approach. The aim of this research is to answer the following questions : - What factors explain firms' organizational choices for innovative activities ? - What is the significance of R&D cooperation within the general framework of internationalization of research in Japanese firms? In order to answer these questions, we have combined quantitative analysis, based on the organizational choice model, with qualitative analysis of six case studies/Our findings show that two levels underlie firms' organizational choices. Firstly, on the transactional level, variables related to opportunistic behaviour do not seem to influence organizational choices concerning innovative activities, whereas the variable related to in-house R&D experience has a positive impact on R&D internalization. Secondly, on the level of firms, dynamic capacities are shaped by the institutional context and influence firms' organizational choices in the field of R&D : - Certain elements, such as availability of a basic research laboratory or the possibility of forming consortia, seem to have a positive impact on R&D internalization. - Other elements, such as availability of complementary assets or international research agreements with universities abroad, appear to favour collaborative relationships
Ozusaglam, Serdal. "Essays on eco-innovation." Thesis, Strasbourg, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014STRAB002/document.
Full textEnvironmental innovation or eco-innovation is considered one of the most significant paradigm shifts in the innovation behaviour. The specificity of eco innovation lies in the fact that environmental improvement, in addition to technological advancement, is the main reason of its development. By combining these two objectives, eco-innovation has become one of primary tools in the search to solve the world’s environmental problems and sustainability challenges. Despite its prevalence, there is still more to be discovered within the eco-innovation literature. The drivers of and barriers to eco-innovation discussion is one of the most significant amongst all. More notably, the role of a firm’s social, technological, economic and organizational characteristics within the eco-innovation process has been little studied. With this Ph.D. thesis we aim to fill the existing gap with four distinct research articles. [...] Chapter 2 investigates, firstly, whether firms’ internal characteristics have an impact on the adoption of voluntary environmental standards. Secondly, the causal effect of adoption of environmental standards on the firms performance. Based on the empirical evidence obtained, we show that medium-size, high-tech manufacturing firms operating at the EU level and using quality standards are more likely to adopt these standards earlier. [...] In Chapter 3, we stressed the significance of a firm’s structural characteristics in another context and aimed at investigating the role these characteristics play in realization of product and/or process eco-innovation. [...] In Chapter 4 we moved forward the analyses conducted in Chapter 3 to another context and examined the influence of firm’s economic, technological, organisational capabilities on the eco-innovation behaviour for different types of product, process, organisational or marketing eco-innovators. The results of our empirical analyses point out the marginal impacts of firm’s characteristics changes with respect to type of eco-innovator. [...]

Full textThe purpose of this thesis is the analysis of the Knowledge-Based Innovation (KBI) which describes innovation through the prism of knowledge approach. Innovation seems essentially like a process of creation, application and dissemination of different types of knowledge. This research focuses on the cognitive phase of innovation explained according to a capability approach. We seek to identify organizational capabilities that sustain innovation and to explain how these capabilities are linked to promote innovation based on knowledge. We developed then a conceptual model that establishes the mediating role of absorptive capacity.Our methodology is based on two empirical studies. The first is qualitative, based on exploratory interviews. It enabled to illustrate the studied relationships, to refine our questions and to enrich the conceptual model with two new research proposals. The second study is quantitative. It is based on the administration of the questionnaire designed for French companies which operate mainly in the industrial sector. This study, based on a structural equation method, validated the overall developed model. It asserted the partial mediation of the absorption capacity. However the existence of relationships between investment in R&D and absorptive capacity was rejected

Full textIn the current complex and open innovation landscape, researchers have given special attention in the relationship between academia and industry, focusing mainly on the role of universities. But Research and Technology Organizations (RTOs) are also an important, yet understudied, part of public research world. The purpose of this PhD project is to study the role of RTOs in the open service innovation landscape, taking a dual perspective. More specifically, in the first part of the project, we undertake a theoretical analysis together with case studies in 4 selected and renowned RTOs, in order to identify the unique service innovation capabilities of RTOs. In the second part of the project we take an external perspective, comparing RTOs to TTOs/ universities in terms of their “offering” to their partners. The analysis is performed on the conceptual level but also empirically based on statistical analysis of the Community Innovation Survey data. Our overall results indicate that RTOs represent a superior type of intermediary in open innovation that are able not only to facilitate but also to catalyse the innovation process

Full textRegard to the Régulation theory. We revisit the concept of the representative model. In the theory of the Japanese firm, the diversity of firms emerged during the Japanese economic crisis in 1990s. The literature tends to treat this question as a new economic phenomenon. However, our analyses of the evolutional process of Japanese firms suggest that a long-term heterogeneity of firm models can be observed. We particularly focus on the comparison of two Japanese firms evolved in different ways through the history of the Japanese automobile industry, Toyota and Honda. While being summarized into the concept of the Japanese firm model, these two firms both established their respective sources of long-term growth: the dynamic capabilities to innovate are composed of the core competence to innovate on the one hand, and the dynamic principle of the firm on the other. The dynamic capability of Toyota is characterized by its competence to develop organizational innovations and by the principle of continuous improvement, Kaizen. In contrast, that of Honda is dominated by a combination of technological and market innovations and the principle of flexibility. As a result, this comparative study of dynamic capabilities to innovate in the Japanese car industry shows that the diversity of firm models is not an exception; on the contrary, this diversity of firms has existed and evolved in the same national and sectorial environment for a long period of time

Full textThis thesis focuses on the role of dynamic capabilities in the internationalization process of Chinese corporations since China’s entry into the World Trade Organization in 2001, even though these companies did not have a clear prior competitive advantage over their Western competitors. The study of three Chinese multinational enterprises – the Haier Group, Huawei Technologies and TCL Corporation – is conducted in the framework of the Dynamic-Capability View (DCV). It aims at identifying the nature and the foundations of the dynamic capabilities developed by these corporations during the internationalization process.This process is characterized by the combination of a significant investment in technological innovation and an accelerated internationalization, jointly contributing to creating and sustaining of competitive advantage. These two elements of the corporate strategies benefit from the strong support of the Chinese government

Full textAdditive manufacturing designates a set of technologies whose unique features open radically innovative design and production possibilities. Some early authors imagined that it would eventually allow decentralized and customized production of objects with complex shapes and in small quantities, thanks to flexible machines that could manufacture about everything. This could, in turn, triggers a new industrial revolution. However, at the present time, we are still in the exploration phase of this new techno-industrial paradigm.Inter-firm relationships appear to be crucial in the exploration of the additive manufacturing new techno-industrial paradigm. We study this exploration processes through the lenses of three specific types of inter-firm relationships.We first focus on value chain relationships. We look at a sector where the implementation of new offerings is already effective. The competitive battle to capture value is raging. Then, we study multipartner alliances where companies engage in a collective strategic exercise to prepare themselves for additive manufacturing. If players work collectively, they also think and develop their own strategy along the way. Finally, we look at dyadic alliances implemented to combine technological and industry capabilities to connect the technologies and potential needs that previously could not be properly served. These alliances allow players to implement additive manufacturing for a few specific applications.Based on these three sets of empirical observations on three different types of inter-firm relationships at three different stages of the exploration of the new paradigm, we present and discuss an integrative theoretical framework that models the exploration of a new techno-industrial paradigm as an iterative and intricate evolution process : the combined actions of the players involved in the exploration of the new paradigm in fact contribute to shape the technological trajectories as they aim at benefitting from the new opportunities offered
