- 1. Empowering Employees: A Route to Innovation ArchivedArticles and reports: 71-584-M2003008Geography: CanadaDescription:
This study investigates the relation between human resource management (HRM) practices, such as using financial (compensation pay) as well as non-financial benefits (employee involvement practices and training) to provide a more stimulating environment for its workers, and the novelty of innovation by Canadian establishments.
Release date: 2003-09-04 - Articles and reports: 11F0019M2003202Geography: CanadaDescription:
This paper examines the factors underlying firm failure, and compares the failure mechanisms for young firms against those of older organizations. This paper suggests that there are systematic differences between the determinants of firm failure for firms that fail early in life and those that fail after having successfully negotiated the early liabilities of newness and adolescence. Data from 339 Canadian corporate bankruptcies confirm that younger firms fail because of inadequacies in managerial knowledge and financial management abilities. On the other hand, older firms are more likely to fail because of an inability to adapt to environmental change.
