Novas tecnologias de gestão na Petrobras: os papeis da atitude competitiva e das estratégias empresariais no processo de adoção de inovações

O objetivo deste trabalho é investigar os fatores que concorrem para estimular a adoção de inovação nos processos de gestão empresarial e como as estratégias empresariais influenciam na atuação dos gerentes na busca de novas tecnologias gerenciais. Com base na revisão bibliográfica efetuada que incluiu os estudos sobre processo de inovação, aprendizado organizacional, estratégia empresarial, vantagem competitiva e atitude competitiva, foi proposto o modelo teórico contendo 03 variáveis independentes e 02 variáveis dependentes, que foram correlacionadas de forma a atender o propósito da pesquisa. Para desenvolver o teste empírico do modelo, foram enviados questionários para 400 empregados da Petrobras e obtidos índices de retorno de cerca de 40% com relação ao total do universo e de 58% sobre o total de gerentes da empresa. Os dados foram avaliados estatisticamente empregando-se o modelo de relações estruturais (LISREL), o que permitiu a medida do quanto a atitude e a vantagem competitivas influenciam a disposição das empresas em adotar novas tecnologias gerenciais. Os resultados obtidos suportam parcialmente as hipóteses sobre a influência da atitude competitiva sobre a disposição em adotar e investir em inovações gerenciais, mas apresentam algumas impossibilidades de interpretação quanto ao relacionamento entre vantagem competitiva e inovação, explicável pela dificuldade dos gerentes em identificar quais as estratégias empresariais constituem-se em vantagem na competição entre as empresas.

A implantação de uma universidade corporativa no setor público: o estudo de caso da escola de contas e gestão do tribunal de contas do Estado do Rio de Janeiro

The present research comprehends a case study, through which we analyzed the Programa de Implantação da Escola de Contas do Tribunal de Contas do Estado do Rio de Janeiro - Program of Implantation of the School of Public Finance of the Public Finance Court of the State of Rio de Janeiro - as a progressive educational strategy from the model of corporate university, considering the ten key components (steps) identified by Meister (1999) in his research. The qualitative approach has proved the most adequate for this study, as, regarding data interpretation and investigation process, the subjectivity of the researcher was taken into account, since he himself was designated to the Commission of Implantation of the School of Public Finance and is, presently, general Academic Coordinator of the Escola de Contas e Gestão (ECG) - School of Public Finance and Management, the main goal (product) of the mentioned program. As to the results, the study has shown that the Tribunal de Contas do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (TCE-RJ) has not equally emphasized the ten key components (steps) for the success in the construction of a corporate university, but none of them was neglected. Considering the way it presently works, it is also concluded that the ECG is relevant for the actuation of the TCE-RJ, but is not yet as connected to the performance as it should be. Fundamentally, the ECG still has to develop a personnel development system driven by personnel management through competences, performing a diagnosis of the essential organizational competences, mapping the existing ones, identifying the breaches and analyzing which of theses competences may be developed by means of their activities. Likewise, the ECG also needs to develop a methodology to assess the result as well as the impact of its activities. These circumstances, however, will be used to guide future studies and represent a new starting point.

Participação no planejamento operacional: o caso de um grupo de agências do banco do Brasil no Espírito Santo.

Em um ambiente em profundas transformações as organizações estão na busca de modelos mais flexíveis. No sistema financeiro nacional essas mudanças são muito contundentes. O Banco do Brasil também vem se reestruturando utilizando novos modelos de gestão. O sistema de planejamento e controle é fundamental nesses modelos. O Banco do Brasil é uma empresa que se modernizou e conseguiu se sintonizar com o que há de moderno em gestão estratégica. Com uma grande rede de agências toma-se fundamental que as estratégias corporativas formuladas nesses modelos sejam disseminadas. É no planejamento operacional, incluindo o orçamento, que essas estratégias serão viabilizadas. Diante da complexidade e grande número de operações e atividades a serem realizadas este planejamento não pode ficar restrito aos administradores das agências. A gerência média, que está bem próxima das equipes, dos clientes e das minúcias das operações, é fundamental. Este estudo de caso, utilizando-se de pesquisa do tipo descritiva, aplicada e de campo, tendo como universo um grupo de agências de varejo do Banco do Brasil localizadas na região da Grande Vitória no Espírito Santo, analisou o nível de participação desse segmento gerencial nas diversas fases do sistema de planejamento e controle e constatou um razoável grau de participação numa forma direta mas ainda operacional, voltada mais para suas próprias atividades. Existem evidências de que condições favoráveis dentro da organização estejam propiciando um salto de qualidade e aprofundamento nessa participação da gerência média, tomando-se possível um maior envolvimento também em relação a assuntos ligados ao contexto no qual a organização está inserida e a sua visão.

Fidelização de clientes a livrarias virtuais: um modelo heurístico

The conventional commercial relationship between suppliers and customers has undergone a profound change as a result of the technological advances that have been made in electronic transactions, such as the Internet. These transformations have not been entirely technological in nature, as they have also directly altered marketing activities. Due to a series of factors, companies are increasingly driven by their customer wishes and requirements, with Electronic Commerce being just one of the means of developing and maintaining this type of relationship, called Customer Relations Marketing. The Internet sites available allow companies to obtain information more easily about which aspects are most relevant to their target customer group in terms of their products and services, helping them to increase the value of commercial transactions on offer. The online marketing strategies of electronic retail companies aim to cultivate customer loyalty after the first purchase has been made, so that customers make repeat purchases. Virtual bookstores represent a particularly successful sector in the world of Electronic Commerce. However, to ensure profitability, the business models of these companies need to be based on customer loyalty, as there is stiff competition in this area. This research study seeks to develop a heuristic model, called 4Ps and 1F, for customer loyalty to virtual bookstores. The 4Ps represent one of the most traditional marketing concepts and the F relates to Customer Loyalty. In developing this model the aim is to see how each marketing P influences customer loyalty, thus identifying the factors critical to the success of virtual bookstores retaining customer loyalty.

Modelos de avaliação escolar utilizados em sala de aula - uma análise nos cursos de administração da Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo (UFES) e de uma faculdade particular : insumos para o aperfeiçoamento da gestão educacional

O estudo, primeiramente, delimita dois modelos de avaliação do aluno em sala de aula: um não-tradicional - que, inserido no processo de ensino, busca potencializar a aprendizagem - e outro tradicional - que está mais preocupado com a verificação de conhecimentos adquiridos. Constata, por meio de entrevistas com professores de uma instituição pública e outra privada, que entres esses dois modelos nenhum é predominante nos cursos de administração. Conclui que os professores que adotam práticas nãotradicionais de avaliação estão mais satisfeitos com os resultados alcançados, pois percebem que a avaliação contribui para a aprendizagem do aluno não se resumindo a um retrato pontual do seu desenvolvimento ou, como constatado entre outros professores, a um instrumento para pressionar e disciplinar. Ainda, constatou-se que as instituições influenciam a forma como os professores avaliam, em alguns casos determinando inclusive quando e como (instrumento) avaliar. Outros fatores também contribuem para dificultar práticas avaliativas não tradicionais, entre eles, a necessidade de os professores lecionarem em mais de uma instituição e a quantidade de turmas e disciplinas em que lecionam, o que faz com que haja pouco tempo para pensar e planejar, além de estar acontecendo o aumento do número de alunos por classe, o que faz com que diminua o contato professoraluno. Conhecer ambos os modelos e os fatores que influenciam o agir em relação à avaliação serve como base para repensar a prática dos professores e como insumo para o aperfeiçoamento da gestão educacional.

Gestão de transferência de inovações tecnológicas para empresas do setor produtivo: complexidade no relacionamento entre organizações de culturas diferentes

The motivation of this study is based on the expectation of understanding, at least in part, the reason why the brazilian academic production ¿ which is among the largest if compared to the developing countries, has not been translated in a useful way into concrete technology transference for the production sector. The supposition that different cultures and subcultures, in terms of values, behavior, practices among organizations and groups of selected actors involved in that process,- which is the central problem of this study, and peculiar to the technology context, has elected that relationship process the object of this research this study theoretical fundaments rely on culture and technology to analyze the subcultures which manifest themselves through the typified groups of researchers, in the public organizations, small scale employers, acting on technology based companies in the private sector (ebts) and mediators. Who also act in the process the preliminary step was the case study. Several qualitative methods an procedures were used. And the investigation has advanced toward interacting interviews, at the end added by the focal group method. The conclusions reject the existence of incompatibility among the subject groups points of view, however, points out some divergent values, the presence of mutual stereotypes and also confirms the supposition that the research platform is strongly influenced by the financial factor. Although, the study reveals that the presence of common objectives which lay behind the cited divergences make possible to present a core of practical suggestions to implement the studied relationships for the benefit of the production sector as well. The peculiarities perceived while dealing with that singular context suggest futures research to clarify possible new and obscure areas in that complex relationships.

Impactos emocionais causados pela mudança de estilo de gestão em um hospital na cidade de São Luis-MA

The objective of this study is to identify how a health institution can minimize the emotional impacts caused by the change of a style of classic management for a participative administration, that the workers and controllers can see the institution as a dynamic organization, that must be faced as an alive system, mobile and adaptable, where they is beings that have the right to react and to answer to the stimulatons. For that, the institution can handle motivator¿s instruments that develop in the people the potential to react of adequate way to the changes proposals, as well as increasing the perspective of possible technological improvements and interpersonal relationship between the internal and external customers. To change the style to manage, to hear the staff of support and user, are not part of the routine of the heads that develop classic management. This decision demands adaptation and flexibility, study, update and psychological preparation, to face common feelings to the new. It fits to the new directors, to visualize these feelings and work to minimize, avoiding future upheavals and the confrontation of situations that can harm the production of the company, as well as the quality of the communication between the diverse dimensions of the organization people. In this study case, based in phenomenological methodology, was possible to verify, through half-open interviews and comments, how was faced the feelings caused at the old direction time, composed for military who withheld the power and determined the actions of the hospital in study, was replaced by health professionals, that saw in the work team the best option to solve the problems and the potential to carry through an administration based in adequate strategies the reality of the moment, with the objective of reaching the satisfaction of the customer. Through this work, is possible to prove the theory that the changes cause impacts that affect the behavior of the people involved and cause stress, as well as conclude that despite the new direction show themselves, during the change, much made use to make right and involve all the workers, didn¿t have traced strategies to minimize the emotional impacts caused by the changes, what made all face their feelings of doubts and anxiety without no special care. Many obtained, by themselves, to face and to adapt the new proposals, but some could not assimilate the new administrative methodology and had been moved away definitively from the institution.
