  • Rural-urban Business Partnerships: towards a new trans-territorial logic
    Local Economy: The Journal of the Local Economy Policy Unit, 2016
    Co-Authors: Anne-mette Hjalager
    Abstract:

    These years, rural–urban Business Partnerships emerge in a new trans-territorial logic, surpassing normal trade alliances. Such Partnerships embrace social issues, benefits related to place branding, knowledge dissemination, etc. This contribution scrutinizes 11 rural–urban Business Partnerships in Denmark within fields of food, film, green care, media, retail, teleworking, education, and tourism. The degree of structural and legal formalization varies, but in many cases the formalization is fairly low. Partnership transparency formats depend on interrelationships with volunteering communities. When analyzing resource composition of the rural–urban Business Partnerships it becomes clear that there are multi-faceted value flows consisting of products, production capacity, market access, knowledge, capital, waste products, and amenities. The creation of productive Business Partnerships often takes a long time, and they are matters of continual change. The successful examples transform positively the value c...

The creation of productive Business Partnerships often takes a long time, and they are matters of continual change. The successful examples transform positively the value chain and rearrange the nature and power of transactions in a territorial framework, and they accommodate for entrepreneurial forces in disadvantaged regions.

  • Relational competency's role in Southeast Asia Business Partnerships
    Journal of Business Research, 2005
    Co-Authors: Michel Phan, Chris Styles, Paul G. Patterson
    Abstract:

    Abstract As Business continues to globalize, firms are increasingly looking to international Business Partnerships (IBP) as a means of expanding and competing in new markets. However, many of these Partnerships fail. The causes of these failures have often been attributed to managers' inability to form and maintain successful relationships with their partners at an interpersonal level. The extant research in Business-to-Business relationships has largely focused on the firm-to-firm level and the macroenvironment of these firms. We extend this stream of research to the interpersonal level by introducing the concept of relational competence from social psychology and linking it to existing relationship marketing constructs. We build our theory from a case study research methodology using a “discovery-mode; multicountry” approach. This research yields theoretical insights from an extensive qualitative study of successful IBP in four countries—Australia, Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia. The degrees-of-freedom analysis (DFA) technique was used on the case data. The result is a theoretical framework for examining the impact of manager's relational competence on relationship performance, mediated by interpersonal relationship quality and communication behavior.

  • School-Business Partnerships, Developmental Assets, and Positive Outcomes among Urban High School Students A Mixed-Methods Study
    Urban Education, 2005
    Co-Authors: Peter C. Scales, Karen C. Foster, Marc Mannes, Megan A. Horst, Kristina C. Pinto, Audra Rutherford
    Abstract:

    This article reports the connections among urban students’ school-Business partnership experiences, developmental assets or strengths they report in their lives, and positive developmental outcomes. Surveys were completed by 429 9th-to 12th-grade Hispanic and African American students, mostly low income in an inner-city high school, and 76 students, parents, school staff, and Business partners participated in observations, interviews, and focus groups. Urban youth with higher level developmental assets reported fewer risk behaviors and more thriving. Students with higher level exposure to school-Business Partnerships reported higher levels of developmental assets and positive developmental outcomes, including better grades, better school attendance, and more academic motivation. The most impactful partnership experiences emphasized the building of relationships between students and caring adults. These relationships engaged, affirmed, and activated students’ inner resources for school success. The results...
