ABSTRACT

The management field needs to develop creative and problem-solving capabilities among students and practitioners. In this context, and after recognizing the research methods as a cognitive process part of decision-making, we propose a step-by-step method to conduct applied research in organizational engineering and business management. With this goal, we first conduct a literature review about research methods in an organizational or business context. Subsequently, we explain the theoretical and empirical process that we followed to construct our step-by-step method. Moreover, finally, we present our ‘step-by-step’ method for applied research in organizations and businesses. We are convinced that research methods are tools that must serve and support researchers, so in our proposal, we detail the activities that must be conducted by a research student, from an eclectic perspective.

摘要

管理领域需要在学生和从业者之间发展创造力和解决问题的能力。在这种情况下，并且在认识到研究方法是决策的认知过程的一部分之后，我们提出了一种循序渐进的方法来进行组织工程和业务管理中的应用研究。为了这个目标，我们首先对组织或商业环境下的研究方法进行文献综述。随后，我们解释了构建逐步方法所遵循的理论和经验过程。此外，最后，我们介绍了组织和企业中应用研究的“逐步”方法。我们坚信研究方法是必须为研究人员提供服务和支持的工具，因此在我们的建议中，
