Design thinking as a methodological strategy for the economic reactivation of start-ups in Mexico under Covid-19

This chapter presents a methodological and strategic proposal for the application of the design thinking methodology to support the implementation of the work and action plan for the economic reactivation of start-ups in Mexico. The objective is to create a quick reference guide to accelerate start-up resilience. Documentary research is considered on the guidelines and implementation requirements, as well as the measures established by the Mexican Ministry of Health, to mitigate the epidemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes the COVID-19 disease and to carry out an orderly, gradual, and cautious reopening in order to continue caring for people's health in the working environment and at the same time reactivate the start-ups' economy. This chapter provides an alternative guide to direct and propose a structured option for the labour and economic reactivation of start-ups that were considered non-core and that require the completion of regulatory procedures and processes required to obtain the necessary Quick Response code, granted by the entities that regulate the guidelines for the safe reopening of companies. Based on the size of these economic entities, it is considered that they can have between 1 and 10 employees, or no hired personnel at all, which is not considered a priority in the current economic reactivation programmes. A methodological strategy is proposed and implemented to support companies of this size in their immediate process of labour and economic reactivation for a case study of a service company that applied the proposed methodology. © 2022 Emerald Publishing Limited.

ANALYSIS OF CONTRIBUTION TO ECONOMIC REACTIVATION POT-COVID-19 OF THE AGRICULTURAL SECTOR IN THE PROVINCE OF CHIMBORAZO, ECUADOR

With the rapid global expansion of COVID-19, the consequences on the economy have been catastrophic: a sharp drop in production, company bankruptcies, job losses and reduced household income, placing households in a situation of risk and uncertainty, both in terms of health and food. The adoption of policies to mitigate these problems is urgent. In this scenario, within the context of Ecuador. The main objective of this article was to propose the promotion of agrifood activities, with special emphasis on social economy organizations and in the province of Chimborazo, as a basis for the reactivation of the post-COVID-19 economy in Ecuador. An observational, retrospective, cross-sectional and descriptive study was carried out. Theoretical methods used were Analytical-Synthetic;Inductive-Deductive;Historical-Logical;and systemic approach. Documentary analysis was used as methods of the empirical level of knowledge. It is evident that the Ecuadorian economy has been slowly reactivated after the pandemic, and has done so at different rates if we compare what happened in the public sector with the private sector. It also shows that the agricultural sector played an important role in the case of the province of Chimborazo. The performance of the cooperatives and particularly the CACs during the COVID-19 pandemic, while remaining active, turned them into dynamizing agents of the Ecuadorian economy, which was depressed during the past months, as evidenced in the agricultural sector in the province of Chimborazo.

Economic reactivation of the productive sector of Cañar, Ecuador: theoretical construct in the COVID-19 scenario

This article is a response to the need for economic reactivation because of the crisis resulting from the context of COVID-19.

Small and medium-sized companies (SMEs) play a significant role in the productive sector of the country since they are those that are dedicated to various economic activities;however, they do not have formal strategic planning and the competent personnel for the development of the entrusted functions. The objective of this study was to diagnose the application of strategic management in small and medium-sized companies in the post-pandemic Ecuadorian context. In this way, it was shown how SMEs are currently and what aspects should be improved to guarantee optimal management that is supported by strategic administration. For this research, a quantitative research approach was methodologically applied, with an analysis-synthesis method that allowed us to analyze the statistics of SMEs in the years 2017 - 2020 in Ecuador. Regarding the results, a decrease in existing companies and in the number of registered employment positions was identified, with a limiting capacity due to the presence of COVID-19. Finally, through the analysis of the data investigated, it was concluded that SMEs face a complex scenario, but that with the application of different strategies, a sustainable competitive advantage will be achieved and, consequently, greater efficiency and effectiveness.Alternate :Las pequeñas y medianas empresas cumplen un rol importante en el sector productivo del país ya que son aquellas que se dedican a varias actividades económicas;sin embargo, no cuentan con una planificación estratégica formal, y el personal competente para el desarrollo de las funciones encomendadas.
