However, there is a general lack of research focused on valid and reliable measures of open strategy. In this paper, we developed and validated the open strategy scale to measure open strategy constructs derived from two dimensions-transparency and inclusion. We used the mixed methods composed in the multi-phase model of scale development. As a result, we have proposed a multi-item scale to measure the strategy openness. Our results demonstrate the validity and reliability of the scale proposed. The main implication of this research is that the scale may serve as both-an integrated tool for assessment of the overall level of open strategy development and an instrument for more detailed analysis of constructs to reveal the room for improvement or investigate the effect brought by managerial decisions.

To find a balance between those tensions, they are using the networking approach. Therefore, it seems that networking is becoming a high priority and that being involved in networks is a crucial part of such companies' business models. Nevertheless, their competitive advantage is based on creative potential, which means that they are rooted in building and maintaining internal relations. As a result, in creative industries, relationships with internal and external stakeholders are crucial, but are strongly based on trust. Thus, the main aim of this paper is to investigate whether trust is the main factor influencing the approach to management. Moreover, we tried to understand the impact of trust on the managerial actions taken. We used the multiple case study research method to examine the role of trust in cooperation, as well as in shaping internal relations in companies operating in the creative industries. To achieve that goal, 10 companies from Poland and Portugal (5 from each country) were investigated in order to find any regularities. By analyzing the research results, it was possible to identify consistencies among the sample and present the main findings. Therefore, four approaches distinguished by the degree of trust were identified. When the level of trust is low, companies are operating within their network based on close relationships, as well as using collective participation where the team is perceived as a key success factor. On the other hand, when the level of trust is higher, companies move towards cooperative management (where the role of competitors is crucial) as well as individual participation (where an employee is engaged in the creative, as well as the decision-making, process). As a result, a theoretical model is proposed that includes the level of trust and the external and internal stakeholders' perspective. Based on our research, trust can also be added as a fourth 'T' to the '3T' (talent, tolerance and technology) concept proposed by Florida (2003).

Celem opracowania jest ocena poziomu transparentności danych ESG ujawnianych przez spółki wchodzące w skład indeksów spółek społecznie odpowiedzialnych RESPECT, VÖNIX, CEERIUS. Realizacja celu badań jest związana z analizą poziomu transparentności ujawnianych danych ESG. Do analizy wykorzystano dane z bazy ASSET4 ESG. Spółki wchodzące w skład poszczególnych indeksów najlepiej radzą sobie z ujawnianiem danych dotyczących ładu organizacyjnego, najgorzej zaś z danymi z obszaru środowiskowego. W ogólnej ocenie transparentności danych ESG najlepiej wypadły spółki z indeksu VÖNIX. Natomiast spółki z indeksu RESPECT wypadają najgorzej spośród wszystkich analizowanych podmiotów. Analiza danych wskazuje także na spadek poziomu transparentności danych ESG podmiotów wchodzących w skład indeksów giełdowych spółek społecznie odpowiedzialnych z Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej.
