Capital intellectuel, capacités stratégiques et innovation de produit. étude des configurations de PMI

Abstract

Can we observe, in small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises (SMEs), various strategic capability configurations ? If so, are these configurations related to the intellectual capital held by these firms ? And to what extent are these configurations related to the product innovation performance of SMEs ? These are the research questions addressed in this article. The results of an empirical study of 267 SMEs show that entrepreneurial SMEs differ from the others by their superior HRM capabilities as well as by their high levels of intellectual capital.
