The results contribute to fill a gap in the literature, since it is an analysis on how organizational competencies significantly explain the development of a proactive environmental management capability. Specifically, these are related to values associated with the consideration of learning as a critical resource, the implementation of structures that facilitate the accumulation and dissemination of knowledge, the existence of an open-minded orientation and the predisposition of the company to develop organizational innovations.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100345,"journal":{"name":"Cuadernos de Economía y Dirección de la Empresa","volume":"16 3","pages":"Pages 180-193"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.cede.2012.10.001","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114510253","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From the standpoint of public policy, results question the support for innovation activities closer to the market to the detriment of other policies with greater capacity to address externalities related to the development of human capital, reducing the uncertainty of investments, addressing information asymmetries between agents or solving the problems inherent in accidental technology spillovers.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100345,"journal":{"name":"Cuadernos de Economía y Dirección de la Empresa","volume":"16 2","pages":"Pages 142-153"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.cede.2012.08.001","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128690464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
