Management Research

Hello everybody

Today, I share with you a new episode of my podcast. We continue elaborating on the concept of dynamic capabilities. In this short episode, I introduce you to one of the theoretical problems with the Dynamic Capabilities View. There is an "ad infinitum" problem of dynamic capabilities - do we need a dynamic capability to change the existing capability that aims at capability reconfiguration? Do we need more and more complex constructs in order to cope with the issue? An alternative approach proposes a self-reflective approach to dynamic capabilities. Yet, this approach changes the nature of the whole theory. In this episode, I explain why it might be an issue.

Welcome to the new episode in my mini-series on organisational capabilities. Today, I talk about a relatively recent development in the capabilities field - the dynamic capabilities view. The concept of dynamic capabilities has become very popular over the last 20 years (now we observe the maturity and the beginning of the decay of the popularity of the concept). Dynamic capabilities aim to answer the question: "How can an organisation dynamically adapt to the changing markets?"

Hello everybody

this episode is dedicated to the problem of a definition of an organisational capability. This topic is very abstract but it is important to talk about it. Otherwise, we might have issues with the capability measurement.

Hello and welcome to my show on Management Research!

In this episode, we continue elaborating on the theoretical foundation necessary to understand the role of organisational capabilities (or competencies; similar to other scholars in the field, I use these terms as synonyms). In the current episode, I talk about the differences between RBV (our previous episode) and CBV. 

I hope you enjoy the show and learn to know your and your firm's capabilities better!

Hello and welcome to my new mini-series on organisational capabilities

In this mini-series, I'll try to shed light on the abstract and hardly understandable (for practitioners as well as academics) concept of organisational capabilities. The mini-series starts with the episode on the Resource-based View (RBV). Enjoy, comment, and make suggestions concerning the topics you would like to know about.

Hello everybody

I think this episode should finalise my mini-series on burnout prevention. Today, I go to a very abstract level and explain what an organisational capability for burnout prevention might look like. 

Enjoy, share, subscribe, and leave a comment with your experience in the field of burnout prevention!

Morning all

I am sorry for the delay - due to one Xcathon and two conferences, I had to postpone uploading the new episode. 

Yet, the conference time is over and I can continue with my podcast. Today, I talk about a very simple but potent tool from process management - the Pareto principle. It is a good tool if you don't know what to start with. 

Enjoy!

Hello everybody

In this episode, I talk about an obvious but often forgotten thing - Voice of the Customer. If you try to understand the reasons for the state of burnout in your firm/team, then you need to talk to your "customers" - your team members. In this episode, I talk about ways to collect data and the issues that might accompany them. 

Good luck with your burnout prevention initiative!

Hello everybody,

as you learned from our previous episode, finding the root cause is crucial for the effectiveness of your burnout prevention initiative. At the same time, is there are several reasons and if you want "to see the broader picture", you have to put words into a visual. A fishbone diagram (please google before you listen to understand what I am talking about) is a perfect way to depict your "5 Why's" from the previous episode or apply the "6 Ms" as suggested by some practitioners: Measurement, Materials, Motivation (aka personnel), Machines, Methods, and Mother Nature (aka environment). 

Good luck!

Good morning!

Today, we talk about a straightforward and simple but powerful tool (you can also call it "exercise") - 5 Why's. It is an easy way to find the main reason(s) for burnout. The deeper your analysis, the easier the issues to address. 

Good luck with your analysis!
