目的:需要对社会资本的创造以及它如何影响企业家精神和中小企业(SME)部门的发展有更深入的了解,这需要进一步的研究。本文旨在考察中小企业与高等教育机构的合作在多大程度上创造了社会资本和网络效益。设计/方法/方法-本文遵循2004年至2006年期间参加兰开斯特大学LEAD计划(一项针对希望发展领导能力和发展业务的所有者/经理的领导力计划)的五名中小企业主的经验。定性技术用于考虑网络活动、社会资本和经验的使用和发展。从文献综述中制定了数据收集和分析的框架。调查结果-结果表明,与高等教育部门合作的经验是有益的。网络提供了创造社会资本的机会,并对中小企业和个人的发展产生了积极影响。支持这一进程的一些关键因素是,对执行方案的个人的信任,创造一个支持性的环境,使个人能够分享经验和社会活动。原创性/价值-本文对高等教育院校中小企业参与课程的实践者和设计者具有启示意义。对于从业者来说,本文表明,通过与高等教育部门合作,创业网络可以得到扩展。对于设计师来说,本文证明了信任和社交性的创造是吸引体验成功的关键因素。然而,这必须与丰富的反思内容相结合。
Purpose–The need to develop a greater understanding about the creation of social capital and how this might impact on entrepreneurship and the development of the small‐ to medium‐sized enterprise (SME) sector requires further research. This paper aims to consider to what extent engagement with higher education institutions (HEIs) by SMEs creates social capital and network benefits.Design/methodology/approach–This paper follows the experiences of five SME owners who participated in the Lancaster University LEAD programme (a leadership programme for owner/managers who want to develop their leadership capabilities and grow their business) between 2004 and 2006. Qualitative techniques are used to consider networking activities, use and development of social capital and experiences. A framework for data collection and analysis was developed from the literature review.Findings–Results show that the experience of engaging with the HEI sector was beneficial. Networks provided the opportunity to create social capital and had a positive impact on the development of the SME and the individual. A number of key elements supported this process namely trust in the individuals running the programme, the creation of a supportive environment where individuals were able to share experiences and social events.Originality/value–This paper has implications for practitioners and the designers of SME engagement programmes at HEIs. For practitioners, this paper demonstrates that by engaging with the HEI sector, entrepreneurial networks can be extended. For designers, this paper demonstrates that the creation of trust and sociability are key aspects for the success of the experience of engaging. However, this must be coupled with content that is rich in reflection.
