Beschreibung
By 6 case studies from 12 2009 to 12 2011 in cooperation with small businesses (from 3 to 85 employees) we have tried to create a method to link up results from measuring social capital with results from balance sheet analyses. The aim was to get a statement about ca-pabilities of SMEs to cope with future requirements as we know them from sustainable de-velopment in order to generate several hypotheses out of the assumption: todays soft facts are the tomorrows hard facts. The data were collected by business reports, standardised questionnaires, semi structured individual interviews and site visits. We use the social capital concept as the core method for generating and interpreting soft facts, qualitative data. It of-fers an appropriate basis for assessing organisational capabilities and further more satisfac-tion and dissatisfaction with even concealed processes. The assumption is: a balanced so-cial capital in connection with corruption and bribery can be interpreted as a willingness of the staff to pick up an excitation from outside (bridging) and to bring it to a collective action (bonding). Contributions from ethical ecological corporate analyses are: (1) measuring com-munication intensity and degree of satisfaction / dissatisfaction; (2) assessing the gap be-tween attitude and behaviour; (3) and match it with performance and capabilities applied.Zeitraum | 26 Apr. 2012 → 27 Apr. 2012 |
