Item type:Publication, The Sustainable Industrial Site of the Future Based on Energy Efficiency, Renewable Energy, Artificial Intelligence, and Energy PolicyThe world’s high emissions of carbon dioxide are the primary cause of climate change and its harmful consequences, such as floods, storms, and droughts. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, human-induced warming reached approximately 1 °C above preindustrial levels in 2017, increasing at 0.2 °C per decade. The industrial sector contributes greatly to this global warming, as it is among the largest energy consumers. Indeed, industrial processes require a lot of energy, for example, for cooling, venting, pumping, producing steam, and hot water. This chapter focuses on industrial sites and aims to find a global solution to accelerate their transition toward sustainability. The study defines a clear and robust framework to obtain a sustainable industrial site and to keep it sustainable. Technologies (both well-proven technologies and new technologies) and policies are examples of tools used during the research. The method used is also supported by the current state-of-the-art on carbon emissions reduction and energy savings. The framework is based on four levers: energy efficiency, artificial intelligence, renewable energy, and energy policy and management. This framework can be used by any organization, stakeholders, and policymakers. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2026. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Community style leadership's effects on organisational performance: analysis across industries and firm sizes in MexicoScholars and practitioners, across fields of study, have spent decades analysing and documenting the complexities of different styles of leadership encountered throughout industries around the world. With that, a series of constructs and respective definitions have been developed to better understand the implications of taking on certain leadership styles. Mintzberg’s (2009) communityship concept is no exception; in fact, it has motivated the development of this empirical study aimed to uncover the characteristics of a community style leadership in organisations operating in Mexico. This study contributes to the understanding of the intricacies of a community style leadership and its potential impacts on collaborator satisfaction and commitment towards the firm, as well as on organisational performance The authors © Inderscience Publishers © International Journal of Management Concepts and Philosophy. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Estimating Conditional Labor Productivity Penalties from Non-Communicable Diseases Using Double Machine Learning: Evidence from Mexican Household Data(MDPI AG, 2026); Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) represent a growing challenge for developing countries, as they are among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality within the working-age population. Beyond their effects on health outcomes, NCDs are associated with reductions in labor productivity, which may influence long-term development dynamics through human capital. This study estimates the conditional labor productivity penalty associated with Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) among employed workers in Mexico using an observational high-dimensional framework. By addressing high-dimensional confounding under the Conditional Independence Assumption (CIA), the analysis isolates the relationship between NCD status and hourly labor earnings. Using microdata from the Mexican National Survey of Household Income and Expenditure, labor productivity is defined as the ratio of labor income to hours worked. To obtain robust causal estimates, a Double Machine Learning (DML) framework is implemented, integrating regularized regression and machine learning algorithms to control for high-dimensional confounding factors. These covariates include socioeconomic, demographic, and health-related variables, allowing for flexible adjustment of observable heterogeneity across individuals. The empirical findings demonstrate a statistically significant conditional negative penalty of −11.44% (p = 1.03 × 10−11, 95% CI: [−14.59, −8.40]) on hourly labor earnings under the cross-fitted DML specification using XGBoost and Random Forest. To resolve an observational measurement artifact where chronic individuals report artificially inflated hourly wages due to severe hours contraction, a presenteeism adjustment factor ((Formula presented.)) was calibrated. Incorporating this presenteeism correction, the aggregate national economic burden among the employed population is estimated at approximately 496.82 billion pesos annually. The findings suggest that NCDs constitute a relevant constraint on labor productivity at the microeconomic level. The study highlights the importance of prevention-oriented health strategies, workplace health promotion, and early disease management. From a methodological perspective, the results illustrate the usefulness of Double Machine Learning for purging high-dimensional confounding in cross-sectional survey data, providing robust conditional empirical benchmarks for public health policy. © 2026 by the authors. © MPDI © Applied Sciences. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Cibernética y racionalidad: Hacia una visión personalista de la empresaNuestra contribución se enmarca en la reflexión filosófica de la empresa a través del aporte de una concepción cibernética de la acción humana a la teoría organizacional, en contraposición a la visión racionalista que primó hasta mediados del siglo pasado. La cibernética permite la consideración teórica de elementos dinámicos y teleológicos de la acción, de ahí su cercanía al pensamiento aristotélico. Tras presentar brevemente la conexión que observa el filósofo Leonardo Polo entre estos marcos teóricos, rastrearemos su influencia en la teoría organizacional. Para ello, presentaremos las intuiciones de John von Neumann, a quien, el estudio de la dimensión estratégica de la acción humana (y la incertidumbre que le es propia) le condujo a una encrucijada: la formalización axiomática o la ética. Mientras que la teoría dominante siguió el primer camino (teoría económica de juegos), presentaremos en esta contribución “el camino no tomado”: la propuesta de Juan Antonio Pérez López. Esta teoría, fundamentada en una concepción antropológica realista y robusta, ofrece las ventajas teóricas de concebir a la organización como un “sistema abierto” y al ser humano como un sistema libre, Finalmente, mostraremos cómo esta postura permite superar los reduccionismos en que caen otros enfoques (el mismo Pérez López definía su propuesta como una “abstracción completa”) abogando así por una ampliación de la racionalidad, que recupera la dimensión normativa de las ciencias socia les como intrínsecamente necesaria a su desarrollo, bajo la premisa de que “sin virtudes morales no hay comportamiento racional” © Los autores © Universidad Popular Autónoma del Estado de Puebla - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, The effects of flexible work models and internal CSR on wellbeing, productivity, and performanceAfter the COVID-19 lockdown, many organisational leaders were adamant about their workers returning to in-office work. As the lockdown proved that productivity, at the very least, does not decrease with remote work, a considerable number of workers were unwilling to compromise their newly found work-life balance which led to a more flexible culture, and the development of different work models. The question is, how have changes in work models after the COVID-19 lockdown impacted individual and team performance? This empirical study develops two different models to assess perceptions of collaborators and leaders regarding a socially responsible flexible culture; findings show that participants perceive flexible work models as a cause for an increase in productivity and performance. © The authors © Inderscience Publishers © International Journal of Business Innovation and Research. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, El Management como práctica: una aproximación a la naturaleza del trabajo directivoEn el presente trabajo se realiza una reflexión sobre la naturaleza del trabajo directivo management, a la luz de los tres modos posibles de conocimiento: la teoría, la práctica y la técnica. Puntualmente, se analiza el trabajo de tres autores: Henry Mintzberg, Ikujiro Nonaka y Alasdair MacIntyre, con el fin de mostrar cómo la evolución del estudio teórico de esta disciplina ha ido evidenciando su carácter eminentemente práctico. Mintzberg aporta una excelente introducción al fenómeno, ya que combina muy bien la observación práctica con la reflexión sobre lo que hacen los realmente directivos. Nonaka, por su parte, resalta el dinamismo de la empresa: su capacidad de innovar, de crear y compartir conocimiento. Finalmente, MacIntyre reivindica la perspectiva aristotélica en el estudio de la vida organizacional, con su revitalización de la noción de práctica. Se concluye resaltando que concebir el trabajo directivo como una práctica abre paso a una teoría normativa de la acción y su influencia en las organizaciones © Los autores © Universidad de Navarra © Revista Empresa y Humanismo. This article reflects on the nature of managerial work, which historically has been approached as a theory, a practice, or a technique. The work of three authors, Henry Mintzberg, Ikujiro Nonaka and Alasdair MacIntyre, is analyzed in order to show how the evolution of this discipline’s theoretical study demonstrates its eminently practical nature. Mintzberg provides an excellent introduction to the phenomenon, perceptively combining practical observation with reflection on what managers actually do. Nonaka, on the other hand, highlights the dynamism of the business firm and its ability to innovate, create and share knowledge. Finally, MacIntyre revives the Aristotelian perspective in the study of organizational life, revitalizing the idea of practice. We conclude by emphasizing that conceiving of managerial work as a practice implies the acceptance of a normative theory of organizations ©The authors © Universidad de Navarra © Revista Empresa y Humanismo. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Corporate Social Responsibility and Financial Performance: Evidence from Public Companies Listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange(Springer Nature Switzerland, 2026); ; The research on how corporate social responsibility (CSR) affects the financial performance (FP) of companies is limited, especially in the case of Mexico. There is a lack of studies that measure the financial impact of socially responsible strategies in Mexican companies. This study introduces an innovative approach by proposing a hybrid model that combines three quantitative methodologies: principal component analysis (PCA), cluster analysis, and an ordered logit model. The goal is to assess the impact of sustainability practices on financial performance. The study considers financial data from the past decade for 91 companies listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange. The results indicate that CSR practices have a positive effect on FP. The proposed hybrid model serves as a valuable methodological tool for evaluating the impact on FP of Mexican public companies listed on the BMV and holding the ESR seal granted by CEMEFI (Mexican Center for Philanthropy). This approach will help monitor the evolution of FP through the adoption of various CSR-related practices. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2026. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
