Valores organizacionais: uma análise no contexto educacional

This research¿s main goal was to analyze the existing relationship between both environmental and organizational values from three State Schools located in the city of Curitiba. These are: Protásio de Carvalho School, Guaíra School and Rio Branco School. At a theoretical empirical reference, an environmental approach has been performed, followed by aspects regarding organizational values, including the discussion on the theme of organizational culture, and, finally, a study on the prevalent values in public educational institutions. The method that best features this research is a comparative case report, with the use of multiple sources of evidence. Secondary data in order to identify the environmental values has been obtained through references of two of the most important newspapers in the State of Paraná, reports published by the State¿s Secretary of Education, publications from the State¿s Teachers Union and through the Educational Legislation in both Federal and State levels. The organizational values have been identified from primary data obtained through semi-structured interviews, performed with the School Principals and through questionnaires distributed to the School Principals and Teachers. The analysis over this data has been carried out in a descriptive-qualitative way by using both documentary and content analysis techniques. The database revealed that there are a few consistencies between environmental and organizational values, in a way that certain values identified in society and in the Government are, several times, more congruent with the values identified in the group of School Principals, whereas the values identified in the Teacher¿s Union have a higher consistency with the prevalent values in the group of teachers. At schools, mainly in the group of teachers, there¿s a noticeable refraction towards actions promoted by the government, and a certain skepticism towards actions promoted by the Teacher¿s Union. The student¿s education is given a higher value than one¿s cognitive education, in the work atmosphere as much as in the organizations; the Society has been gradually taking the responsibility regarding public education, with the support of school boards, teachers, and even of the Government, at a time when teachers, unlike the Society and the Government, appear to give very little value to their own profession.

A formação do campo da saúde suplementar no Brasil

The aim of the present study is to analyze the evolution of the historical and institutional elements that generate the current design of the private health market in Brazil. Its main theoretical basis is the Theory of the Symbolic Power, by Pierre Bourdieu, complemented, in the non-conflictive aspects of these two visions, by the Anthony Giddens¿ institutional vision on the field genesis motivational factors. The research¿ data were collected through documents and semi structured interviews during 2002 e 2003 period, involving the qualitative analyze due to understand the field¿s phenomena under an actors¿ perspective. The research identifies the several players that integrate the market, their evident strategic goals, and those that are not so, besides of the powers¿ resources used to reach them, by DiMaggio and Powell¿ vision. Thus, it tries to show, through a historic linear description, and emphasis in the determinant facts, the evolution of the market¿s constitution. The study demonstrates that the field had formed from several Estate¿ actions, basically after the past seventy¿ decade, as result of a alternative Government¿ strategy towards a Brazilian population¿s dissemination plan of health¿ services that enforced the institutionalization of isomorphic structures, with a strong internal interaction and a hierarchy between kinds of values, that had emphasized the health¿ symbol as a citizenship¿s value. In the end, the study estimates that the crescent longevity¿ Brazilian¿s population and the consequent work¿s dismiss may cause a private health¿ elitism conforming a future problem in this sensible segment of the social politics of the Brazilian government.

Escolariedade, salários e empregabilidade: implicações no mercado de empregos do Rio de Janeiro

The high degree of flexibility has been pointed as one of the outstanding characteristics of the Brazilian job market. Employability is being a frequent discussion issue among the professionals of the human resources area. The Human Capital Theory and the contemporary discussion concerning Employability argue the relationship of the educational practice and of the production practice in a capitalist economical-social structure as a whole. The education consequences in the individuals' life are reflected in several ways, direct and indirectly. Our objective is to evaluate, with statistics methods, and in that universe of consequences, the explanatory events of the relationships between education-wage and education¿job. The main reason of this work is to evaluate the relationship between education, wage and Employability from a structural model perspective, seeking to compare and to contrast two effective theories: the one from the human capital and other from the Employability. To make this analysis, a database of individuals that are working at the formal work market in the Rio de Janeiro Metropolitan Area, had been used. The results showed the education importance on the wage level, as well as, on the Employability factor, whose values and highest taxes correspond to the individuals graduated on the university.

Pesquisa de clima organizacional: uma análise crítica

The organization climate research is a widely used human resources tool grounded on the managerial discourse that preaches that listening to employees's opinions is relevant for the identification of corporate aspects that demand improvement. This study aims at desmistifying this discourse by means of analytical tools from the Critical Administration Studies, namely: denaturalized view of administration, detachment between intentions and performance and search for emancipation. The study is grounded on the assumption that the organizational climate research derives from functionalist theory, which benefits a dominating class, in name of productivity and for the maintenance of the status quo, therefore contributing for individual alienation at work. The study was designed to identify elements that show the relation between an organizational climate research tool and the social control over individuals in an organization - here the research conducted in 2005 by Centrais Elétricas Brasileiras S/A - Eletrobrás, the Brazilian power sector holding company. The theoretical section presents an overview of corporate paradigms relevant for a sound understanding of the organizational climate concept. Data analysis was conducted by means of the post-modern method of binary deconstruction: the questions contained in the tool's questionnaire were grouped into categories and then analyzed in terms of the fallowing conceptual pairs: well-being/productivity, autonomy/control, ethics/ competitiveness and participation/alienation. The analysis showed that the organization climate research tool is used as a resource for social control and power, because it contributes to individual alienation as it satisfies some specific individual demands, therefore preventing the individual form a thorough understanding of how the system works. Besides, the helps anticipate, mitigate and conceal the conflicts arising from the opposing interests of capital and labor.

Atitude socialmente responsável ou estratégia comercial: o caso do pacto global

The discussion about corporate obligations toward the various stakeholders began in the postindustrial era and developed to culminate in the creation of rules, regulations, programs and projects focusing on the dissemination and promotion of what we know today as corporate social responsibility (CSR). In this context, satisfying this new demand and adopting social policies emerge as a determining factor in defining organizational strategies. Nevertheless, some questions are raised when we examine the subject, such as: To what extent should organizations intervene in society? Is the decision for the organizations to adopt a socially responsible attitude really linked to promoting social well being, or is it only a commercial strategy? How does social marketing relate to CSR projects? The study herein, based on the concept and understanding of CSR theories, stakeholders and social marketing, has sought to find evidence of this relationship, in the light of the Global Compact (GC). It was decided to use the multi-case study methodology, considering the possibility of explaining the reasons why the decisions were taken, how they were implemented and what was the outcome. Interviews, supported by previously prepared scripts, were held with CSR managers, employees from other areas of the organizations, and specialists on the subject. Complementary research studies were made in various sources, such as the website of companies under analysis, their sustainability reports, and the GC websites in Brazil and the United Nations (UN). The results obtained show that the organizations have worked increasingly with CSR projects, but the efforts have not been focused. Special mention is given to the programs that create major impact on the company¿s image and reputation, such as projects competing for prizes and participating in the formation of rankings or socially responsible organizations. From the view of Carroll¿s Pyramid (1991) for CSR, it is found that the projects are predominantly focusing on ethical and philanthropic issues. The driving power of the GC, action based on learning, dialogue and partnership, is not to be found. This factor contributes to the statement that social marketing tools are used to build an ethical and socially responsible image, in detriment to effective action by the organizations to meet the social requirements of their stakeholders. The social marketing has as an objective to transform the way a specific public sees a social question and promotes behavior changes, but what has been seen is the use of marketing tools exclusively to promote the company's image.

Influência da mudança organizacional na percepção dos papéis desempenhados no trabalho: o caso do arsenal de Marinha do Rio de Janeiro

O Objetivo desta pesquisa é analisar a influência da mudança organizacional sofrida pelo Arsenal de Marinha do Rio de Janeiro (AMRJ) sobre a percepção em relação aos papéis desempenhados pelos seus servidores, dos níveis gerencial e operacional, no que tange a valores e crenças sobre o seu trabalho. Esta pesquisa constitui um estudo de caso, e se deu por meio de pesquisa de campo, de cunho qualitativo, e por isso, os dados foram analisados de forma descritivo-interpretativa sobre a avaliação documental e do seu conteúdo. Os dados primários foram obtidos a partir de análise de documentos, tais como relatórios, normas, publicações e regulamentos internos; e os dados secundários foram provenientes de entrevistas semiestruturadas; e possibilitaram averiguar as categorias analíticas envolvidas na pesquisa. As amostras para as entrevistas foram selecionadas de populações, dentro do AMRJ que fossem semelhantes ou equivalentes a populações de indústrias privadas e os sujeitos das mesmas, que, igualmente, tivessem equivalência funcional em outras indústrias ou empresas a fim de serem representativas para a composição do conteúdo da pesquisa. Os dados coletados permitiram concluir que o AMRJ ainda se encontra em processo de acomodação à mudança que se iniciou, e que o trabalho passou a ser mais gratificante para o nível gerencial, assumindo uma perspectiva de desafio e crescimento profissional a partir de um novo enfoque dado a ele, porém, para o nível operacional, devido a uma motivação decrescente e a interesses frustrados, sua percepção considera o trabalho como menos gratificante que o outro nível, apesar do sentimento positivo que tem pela instituição. Concluiu-se, também, que as mudanças são necessárias, apesar das dificuldades inerentes a ela, e influenciam a percepção das pessoas, mas podem ficar comprometidas caso não seja levado em conta que deve haver uma equivalência na distribuição, entre todos os níveis, dos benefícios que podem favorecê-la.

The institutions of advanced education began to seek two major objectives: the continuous improvement of your academic, pedagogic and administrative practice and the elimination of resources waste. Beyond the implementation of the New Law of Policies and Basis of the National Education, many were the factors that contributed for the change of the paradigms of management of the Institutions of Advanced Education in Brazil. Some of these factors are the following: a) Increasing competition. The competition, each time more present in the day-to- day of the Institutions of Advanced Education, that was regional and closed by, it¿s now professional and global.b) Implantation of the mechanism of quality control, for example the Provão (Exam), by the Ministry of Education.c) Increasing demand for the advanced courses, since the number of students concluding the Middle level courses has being increasing gradually in the last years. d) Education has become a critical factor in the competition between nations, regions and companies.In the present moment, marked by intense competition, complex academic and administrative processes, technologic information as a condition ¿ sine qua non¿ for the decisive process and the exigency for modern and cooperated management, demands big changes in the way the educational institutions manage their resources and evaluate the performance of their administrators.The study demonstrates the pressing necessity of implanting a Control Management that will assist the administration of the Institution of Advanced Education in a way that will optimize the economic results of the entity, as well as the creation and implementation of the mechanisms that will bring a better understanding of the environment in which the entity lives and operates.

Estrutura organizacional versus desempenho profissional. Estudo de caso de uma autarquia federal

During the 1980¿s and the 1990¿s, the Brazilian federal government started to set up a new public administration policy called ¿managerial¿ conceived of new patterns of efficiency and effectiveness and extremelly concerned about optimizing state administration to grant best results for people. This decision has been taken due to three main reasons; (i) the worst fiscal crisis considering the last decades; (ii) exhaustion on interfering with Brazilian economy due to its opening to globalization, and (iii) extremelly deep-rooted burocratic methods. The Brazilian state reform presented as a diagnosis of the human resource government area: (i) gradual raising costs in payroll, allied to (ii) huge raising inefficiency in public services, and (iii) civil servants are unprepared to improve better responses to currents citizen demands and to adopt new methods of management based on the best professional performance and the best quality of public services. We have concluded that the federal government often tries to make civil servants redundant instead of adopting a real policy of management that would give them better conditions to improve their performance. This paper presents a concrete proposal to improve quality in civil servants performance by taking advantage of information technology and of our assumed country¿s democratization. We suggest that the Brazilian state reform must be and should be a new path of social growth and development not only in economic basis.
