Resumo: | Aiming to explore and analyze the relationship between social networks and firm performance, this longitudinal multicase study was developed, interviewing five incubated companies, selected by accessibility and convenience, which were in different stages of incubation, at Softville, a technologically based incubator of Joinville-SC. Managers and employees of these companies answered the sociometric questionnaire, at three moments in the period of a year. The reliability, technical information and management information networks were mapped, as were their structural features of size, density and cohesion, besides studying the company performance data (team size, number of customers and sales). The companies studied with more cohesive networks have a better performance, confirming that which is indicated by the relevant literature and suggest that practices for supporting incubated companies should emphasize competence in network. |

Gestores e empregados dessas empresas responderam ao questionário sociométrico, em três momentos no período de um ano. As redes de confiança, de informação técnica e de informação sobre gestão e suas características estruturais de tamanho, densidade e coesão foram mapeadas. Além disso, foram levantados dados de desempenho das empresas (tamanho da equipe, número de clientes e faturamento). Empresas pesquisadas com redes mais coesas apresentam melhores desempenhos, corroborando indicações da literatura e sugerem que práticas de suporte às empresas incubadas devem privilegiar competência de formação e de atuação em network.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2013-12-10info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/otherapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/adm/article/view/2175-8077.2013v15n37p2210.5007/2175-8077.2013v15n37p22Revista de Ciências da Administração; V.15 N.37 Dezembro de 2013; 22-362175-80771516-3865reponame:Revista de Ciências da Administraçãoinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/adm/article/view/2175-8077.2013v15n37p22/26100Lagemann, Gerson VolneyLoiola, Elizabethinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-11-21T14:12:57Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/29280Revistahttp://www.periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/admPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/adm/oairevista@cse.ufsc.br||mfpcris@gmail.com||rca.cse@contato.ufsc.br2175-80771516-3865opendoar:2022-11-21T14:12:57Revista de Ciências da Administração - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false |
