innovación en gestión, capacidades innovadoras tecnológicas, desempeño organizativoResumen
El objetivo de este trabajo es estudiar la relación entre la innovación en la gestión empresarial y las capacidades tecnológicas innovadoras así como analizar el impacto que ambas ejercen en el desempeño organizativo, tomando como marco teórico el Enfoque Basado en los Recursos (RBV). Para contrastar el modelo teórico propuesto se toma una muestra de 159 empresas industriales españolas y se modeliza un sistema de ecuaciones estructurales con la metodología Partial Least Squares (PLS). Los resultados confirman que la innovación en la gestión empresarial favorece el desarrollo de las capacidades tecnológicas y que tanto la innovación en gestión como las capacidades de innovación tecnológica (en productos y en procesos) ejercen un efecto positivo en el resultado empresarial.
