Either from the point of view of employment generation, the export system, competitiveness and from the technological condition. It has also been examined from the sociodemographic area and from women participation. In this exhibit, Maquiladorias will be approached from the evaluation of performance of the operative personnel. In a more specific way, from feedback, which allows us to maximize and rate more accurately improved quality in workers. It might seem like the evaluation of performance has a limited function. However, this provides benefits both to the individual and the organization. The main purpose of this exhibit consists of the analysis of the degree of formality on evaluation systems in the performance of Maquiladoras and the feedback derived from it, both from the worker and company. The methodological part of this work is of a theoretical and empirical nature. The theoretical par develops a conceptual framework regarding the evaluation of the performance emphasized in the benefits of feedback. Expressed in an empirical manner, predominantly quantitatively, this was based on the enforcement of a poll applied to the Human Resources managers of 67 different maquiladoras in Mexicali, B.C.

These changes require the development of increasingly sensitive and sophisticated instruments to measure factors under study. We building a tool to measure Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) features in Mexican SMEs and their subsequent application to a pilot sample. This process allowed the authors to examine the level of knowledge and commitment of the sector with CSR policies and practices. Derived from the results of the pilot, it was possible to conclude that, in general, the knowledge and application of such practices and policies is implemented partially and in a more intuitive than conscious way Classification-JEL: M4, M14, O40 Keywords: CSR, SMEs, Measuring Instruments Journal:Revista Global de Negocios Pages: 21-38 Volume: 4 Issue: 6 Year: 2016 File-URL: http://www.theibfr2.com/RePEc/ibf/rgnego/rgn-v4n6-2016/RGN-V4N6-2016-2.pdf File-Format: Application/pdf Handle: RePEc:ibf:rgnego:v:4:y:2016:i:6:p:21-38 Template-Type: ReDIF-Article 1.0 Author-Name: Juan Carlos Roman Fuentes Author-Name: Angel Esteban Gordillo Martinez Author-Name: Rafael Timoteo Franco Gurria Title: LABOR INSERTION OF ADMINISTRATION STUDENTS FROM CHIAPAS UNIVERSITY, INSERCION LABORAL DE ESTUDIANTES DE ADMINISTRACION DE LA UNIVERSIDAD AUTONOMA DE CHIAPAS Abstract: Under the premise that emphasizes the importance of employability of young professionals, we characterized the job placement process of graduates. To assess the quality of training; we conduct a survey that includes follow-up graduates model. The survey includes ten questions on the experience gained on entry into the labor market during their studies. The results show the universe of graduates; only 35% worked during their studies, of these 31% worked throughout their studies and 40% in the intermediate stage of the degree. At the conclusion of the studies only 23% were working. Some 18% worked in their own businesses and the majority (69%) were employees in the private sector. The medium method used to identify employment opportunities are recommendations (62%). Only 7% indicated they used school job boards. We conclude that the university should strengthen the entrepreneurial spirit of students, as well as the inclusion of professional practice and formalization of linking spaces to facilitate the detection of employment opportunities for students Classification-JEL: A22, I23, J01 Keywords: Labor Market, Undergraduates, Higher Education Relevance Journal:Revista Global de Negocios Pages: 39-49 Volume: 4 Issue: 6 Year: 2016 File-URL: http://www.theibfr2.com/RePEc/ibf/rgnego/rgn-v4n6-2016/RGN-V4N6-2016-3.pdf File-Format: Application/pdf Handle: RePEc:ibf:rgnego:v:4:y:2016:i:6:p:39-49 Template-Type: ReDIF-Article 1.0 Author-Name: Ma. del Carmen Cornejo Serrano Author-Name: Pedro Alberto Quintana Hernandez Author-Name: Eloisa Bernardett Villalobos Oliver Title: A BASIC SYSTEM OF PERFORMANCE AND QUALITY INDICATORS FOR THE NATIONAL TECHNOLOGY INSTITUTES: A PROPOSAL, PROPUESTA DE UN SISTEMA BASICO DE INDICADORES DE DESEMPENO Y DE CALIDAD PARA EL SISTEMA NACIONAL DE INSTITUTOS TECNOLOGICOS Abstract: The National System of Technological Institutes does not have a basic system of performance and quality indicators. So, in this paper a proposal for a system of indicators in technological higher education is presented. The indicators used in higher education in Europe, United States, Latin America and Mexico were reviewed. In Europe and the United States we analyzed comparative studies between the highest ranked institutions of higher education. They used 192 performance indicators. In Latin America 40 indicators have been used, in Mexico The National Association of Universities and Institutions of Higher Education (ANUIES) proposed 1478 indicators and National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) proposed 50 indicators to measure the performance of its schools. In this paper, we propose a set of 61 performance and quality indicators for both internal and external comparisons. These indicators were developed to evaluate the strategic processes of substantive activities (academic, public relations, continuous education, planning, resource management and quality in education) carried out in theTechnological System Classification-JEL: I23 Keywords: Indicators System, Performance Indicators, Quality Indicators Journal:Revista Global de Negocios Pages: 51-67 Volume: 4 Issue: 6 Year: 2016 File-URL: http://www.theibfr2.com/RePEc/ibf/rgnego/rgn-v4n6-2016/RGN-V4N6-2016-4.pdf File-Format: Application/pdf Handle: RePEc:ibf:rgnego:v:4:y:2016:i:6:p:51-67 Template-Type: ReDIF-Article 1.0 Author-Name: Yolanda Saldana Contreras Author-Name: Fernando M.

The objective of this work is to determine a successor can evaluate his/her aptitude for the new post and which strategies should be developed with the aim to exercise a leadership that guarantees continuity and growth of the family business. To achieve the proposed objectives, we carried out field research. The survey was administered to 18 business second-generation family CEO’s in the state of Coahuila’s Center Region. The results obtained show that the majority of the interviewed affirm that they can comply with the formal requirements, but need to strengthen their ability to face circumstantial proofs and to overcome political tests. We present some strategies that allow the successors to exercise a leadership suitable to the organizational and family circumstances that are confronted with by succession Classification-JEL: M120, M140, M150, M190 Keywords: Leadership, Second Generation, Family Business Journal:Revista Global de Negocios Pages: 69-79 Volume: 4 Issue: 6 Year: 2016 File-URL: http://www.theibfr2.com/RePEc/ibf/rgnego/rgn-v4n6-2016/RGN-V4N6-2016-5.pdf File-Format: Application/pdf Handle: RePEc:ibf:rgnego:v:4:y:2016:i:6:p:69-79 Template-Type: ReDIF-Article 1.0 Author-Name: Maria Antonieta Monserrat Vera Munoz Author-Name: Rafaela Martinez Mendez Author-Name: Gerardo Serafin Vera Munoz Author-Name: Armando Lagunés Blanco Title: SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT, ENVIRONMENT AND KNOWLEDGE NETWORKS, DESARROLLO SUSTENTABLE, MEDIO AMBIENTE Y REDES DE CONOCIMIENTO Abstract: The environment and the need to cater Sustainability Climate Change (CC), meaning the "change directly or indirectly attributable to human activity climate that alters the composition of the global atmosphere" (The Nature Conservancy et al., 2009: 11).
