Abstract
BORINI, Felipe Mendes; FLEURY, Maria Tereza Leme and FLEURY, Afonso. Transference, development and recognition of organizational competences in subsidiaries of Brazilian multinationals. Economia Global e Gestão [online]. 2010, vol.15, n.1, pp.31-54. ISSN 0873-7444.
Emerging multinationals must seek and develop competences abroad and develop the skill to transfer these competences much faster and more actively than the traditional multinationals. This paper aims at understanding the development, transfer and recognition processes of the competences of emerging multinationals subsidiaries. The research was applied to a survey involving a large proportion of the Brazilian multinationals and their subsidiaries. The results showed that the variables competitive context and external network (in which the subsidiary is embedded) are the most important for competence development, transfer to and recognition by the headquarters; and the variable subsidiary initiative is important for headquarters recognition only.
