La creatividad en entidades de la Economía Social: una visión desde casos múltiples y una metodología mixta

Abstract

The new models of creativity, knowledge and sustainability deserve to be known, even more so in Social Economy Entities (hereinafter SEEs) with a unitary management logic. This article, based on a multiple case study and using questionnaires focused on experts, has a priori the purpose of knowing their vision of the various institutional ecosystems that orbit around the thematic axes of the social economy, especially training centers and educational cooperatives. In the process, the stages of the Delphi methodology were used for the theoretical verification of the relationships and a refinement of the indicators. This was followed by a PLS SEM partial least squares regression analysis in order to make the statistical study testable. The contribution of the article leads us to establish strategies in the field of sustainability of HEIs, through an empirical study, which were identified through the management of creativity in education cooperatives, NGOs and foundations related to specialized technical training.
