ABSTRACT

The increased competition and the digital transformation process have produced significant pressure for universities. To support coping efforts, dynamic capabilities (DCs) and value co-creation capabilities (CCs) are essential. However, the relationship between these constructs is not clear in the literature. What is the relationship between DCs and CCs, and how do they contribute to the university’s value generation? This study’s objective is to analyze the relationship between DCs, CCs, and generated value (GV) in higher education. A survey among 360 university employees was analyzed with structural equation modeling. Our results suggest that the DCs precede the CCs and CCs influence the GV for the university. These results contribute to the understanding of the theoretical relationship between DCs, CCs, and GV in higher education. It also contributes to universities, orienting leaders, and managers to create, develop, and exploit university capabilities to generate value for stakeholders.

摘要

日益激烈的竞争和数字化转型进程给大学带来了巨大的压力。为了支持应对努力，动态能力（DC）和价值共创能力（CC）至关重要。然而，这些结构之间的关系在文献中尚不清楚。DC 和 CC 之间的关系是什么？它们如何为大学的价值创造做出贡献？本研究的目的是分析高等教育中 DC、CC 和生成价值 (GV) 之间的关系。采用结构方程模型对 360 名大学员工进行的调查进行了分析。我们的结果表明，DC 优先于 CC，并且 CC 影响大学的 GV。这些结果有助于理解高等教育中 DC、CC 和 GV 之间的理论关系。
