In this document, which is the result of a research project, the influence of attitudinal change and its internal diffusion among the users of a Social Responsibility Project is appraised against the achievement of the purposes of that project. The case study method was used. The target audience consisted of entrepreneurs who participated in a capability development program in a social responsibility project in the telecommunications sector. The results show that 1) the creation of behavioral change, and more specifically, its rapid diffusion among users of the project, have a positive effect in the accomplishment of its objectives, 2) this effect may be estimated by means of Social Return on Investment (sroi), and 3) companies that favor Social Responsibility projects can improve their performance if they bring about behavioral change among their users or beneficiaries

This study is one of the first empirical studies on intellectual capital (IC) in South American textile exporting companies. Using the resources and capabilities approach, we examine how certain intangibles can provide competitive advantages. We propose and test a model capturing the relationships between IC components and export performance (EP), as well as the various interrelationships among the different dimensions of IC. Using a sample of textile manufacturers operating in Peru, an emerging economy, we find that both human capital and structural capital have a significantly positive influence on EP. However, the data analysis does not confirm that relational capital has any positive influence on export performance.
