  • SOCIAL NETWORKS , SOCIAL CAPITAL AND PERFORMANCE: A STUDY WITH BRAZILIAN DAIRY COOPERATIVES Warlei Tana José Marcos Carvalho de Mesquita Carlos Alberto Gonçalves Henrique Cordeiro Martins Administración y Contabilidad Performance Social Capital Social Networks Cooperatives Networks The objective of this research is to assess the influence of social networks on the organizational capabilities of the cooperatives operating in the Brazilian dairy segment. The subject of this study arises from the relationship of inter-organizational social networks in managerial capabilities of Brazilian cooperatives operating in the dairy segment. We utilized a structured questionnaire to collect quantitative data. The questionnaire was sent by email and by mail to the leaders of 414 cooperatives. We obtained 348 responses and, after treatment of missing data, 331 of them were analyzed. A theoretical model based on the theoretical framework was proposed and then validated by analysis of Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). Thus, it was established that inter- organizational social networks generate capital and that the cooperatives make use of networks, albeit incipiently. It was noted, too, that inter-organizational social networks can benefit cooperatives’ performance. 2017 artículo científico 1516-3865 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=273553871004 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=2735 Revista de Ciências da Administração application/pdf Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina Revista de Ciências da Administração (Brasil) Num.48 Vol.19
