Dynamic capabilities and innovation capability: a proposal to measure these
DOI:
https://doi.org/10.15665/dem.v21i1.3612Keywords:
Dynamic capabilities, Innovation capability, Capabilities measurementAbstract
The Purpose is propose measuring dynamic capabilities and innovation capability considering the size and age of the firm as moderating variables. A literature review was carried out from articles searched in the Scopus, Web of Science, SciELO and Redalyc databases; then analyzed and systematized to establish the dimensions of dynamic capabilities and innovation capability. A measurement tool was proposed considering dynamic capabilities as a precondition for innovation capability, considering the size and age of the company as moderating variables in the relationship between dynamic capabilities and innovation capacity. Future studies should be oriented to the application of the measurement tool designed to validate the instrument and evaluate the interrelation of the variables.
