- An approach to absorptive capacity based on the Portuguese textile industryPublication . Franganito, Rui Manuel FialhoThe main purpose of this research is to identify the hidden knowledge and learning mechanisms in the organization in order to disclosure the tacit knowledge and transform it into explicit knowledge. Most firms usually tend to duplicate their efforts acquiring extra knowledge and new learning skills while forgetting to exploit the existing ones thus wasting one life time resources that could be applied to increase added value within the firm overall competitive advantage. This unique value in the shape of creation, acquisition, transformation and application of learning and knowledge is not disseminated throughout the individual, group and, ultimately, the company itself. This work is based on three variables that explain the behaviour of learning as the process of construction and acquisition of knowledge, namely internal social capital, technology and external social capital, which include the main attributes of learning and knowledge that help us to capture the essence of this symbiosis. Absorptive Capacity provides the right tool to explore this uncertainty within the firm it is possible to achieve the perfect match between learning skills and knowledge needed to support the overall strategy of the firm. This study has taken in to account a sample of the Portuguese textile industry and it is based on a multisectorial analysis that makes it possible a crossfunctional analysis to check on the validity of results in order to better understand and capture the dynamics of organizational behavior.

Franganito, Rui Manuel FialhoA importância da capacidade de absorção do conhecimento das organizações tem sido uma matéria muito importante, mas que no campo prático não tem correspondido às expectativas devido à amplitude e cobertura da sua temática. Estudar e apresentar os principais agentes que participam no processo de capacidade de absorção da organização é o objectivo deste artigo, nomeadamente identificar a importância do capital social na sua ampla dicotomia, interno vs. externo e o papel integrador das novas tecnologias como elemento integrador do conhecimento e capacidade de aprendizagem da organização que permite uma maior capacidade de inovação.
