    Poor and distressed, but happy : situational and cultural moderators of the relationship between wealth and happiness
    (Universidad Icesi, 2013-01-01) Cortés Peña, Aura María; Maya Márquez, Luis Carlos; Borrero Caldas, Silvio; Escobar Escobar, Ana Bolena
    Evidence on the relationship between wealth and happiness is mixed, hinting that there are situational or individual factors that account for the variability in results. This paper contends that wealth is in fact related to happiness. More specifically, it is proposed that poverty –as well as other adverse situations– has an undermining effect on happiness, and that this effect is attenuated by a collectivist orientation. Analyses of variance (ANOVAs) using data on happiness, wealth and culture from 197 countries, supplemented by a meta-analysis of empirical studies that explore the relationship between wealth and perceptions of happiness, support the hypothesized relationship between adversity and happiness, and the moderating effect that collectivism has on such relationship.

    Patagonia: tocando las fibras internas
    (Universidad Icesi, 2013-05-01) Velasco Tafur, Ximena; Borrero Caldas, Silvio; Asesor
    This paper narrates the story of Patagonia, a company which has always been unconventionalin its way of doing business. Patagonia considers that many management mistakes result from firms applying unique, generic solutions to all kinds of problems. Also, since the dawn of the industrial revolution, such solutions have privileged economic gains over environmental sustainability. More particularly, this paper describes how Patagonia started a commercial relationship with a Colombian firm, and how both firms had to sort different obstacles to consolidate such relationship. For teaching purposes, and to optimize the case for class discussions, it has been divided into two separate parts, A and B.
