This paper analyzes the evolution of the protection to the minority stockholders of the stock market, through their right to withdrawal when the society is reorganized. Thus, a triple study was done: In the first place, it analyzes the evolution of legal protection for the minority stockholders with relation to possible abuses that can be committed by the majority stockholders of public traded corporations when there is a Public Offering for Stocks Acquisition (POSAs). In the second place, it studies opinions about this legal protection of portfolio managers and lawyers who deal with corporate law. Finally, it verified the POSAs which occurred in recent periods, comparing the values used by the majority stockholders to reimburse the stocks from minority shareholders in those POSAs. Comparing the results of these three above studies, we conclude that: A) The current legislation does not protect adequately the minority stockholders; B) There is a great dispersion of opinions among the two categories of professionals, concerning their approval or not of important details of the current legislation, and also of the old legislation; C) A great dispersion also exists about the suggestions concerning what should be modified in the legislation to improve it; D) The Brazilian Securities Commission (Comissão de Valores Mobiliários ¿ CVM) did not prevent the distortions observed in the POSAs studied; E) The legislation is not always well known by these professionals, and this suggests that the knowledge of small investors must be precarious. This insecurity and ignorance of the legal protection become obstacles for nonspecialized persons to invest in stocks, resulting in an important limitation for the development and popularization of the Brazilian stock market.

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.

o serviço móvel celular apresentou, nos últimos anos, mudanças significativas em termos de evolução tecnológica e dos produtos e serviços oferecidos ao cliente. O ambiente de prestação do serviço evoluiu a partir de um monopólio estatal para um regime de duopólio regional privado. A introdução da competição trouxe benefícios aos clientes, dentre os quais podem ser citados a redução dos preços de aquisição e das tarifas de uso do serviço e o aumento da oferta de linhas celulares, antes em falta no mercado. A introdução do serviço pré-pago, em 1999, representou um marco na história do Serviço Móvel Celular no Brasil. O produto, adequado para usuários que querem controlar seus gastos com telefonia celular, permitiu o acesso das classes econômicas C e D ao serviço. O pré-pago trouxe vantagens e desvantagens para clientes e prestadores de serviço. Uma de suas limitações, quando lançado, era a impossibilidade de utilização do servIço fora da área de atuação da operadora ("roaming"). O problema técnico que impedia o oferecimento de roammg para chamadas terminadas foi resolvido e as empresas prestadoras adotaram estratégias distintas em relação a isso. Algumas ofereceram o serviço para todos os clientes pré-pago, indistintamente; outras segmentaram o mercado pré-pago, criando produtos novos com a facilidade de roaming e mantendo os produtos já lançados no mercado sem a facilidade de roaming. A Americel, empresa operadora do Serviço Móvel Celular na região Centro Oeste e parte da região Norte, possui dois produtos pré-pago: o primeiro, chamado Legal, não permite o roaming de chamadas terminadas. Foi criado também o Legal Pacas que oferecia, entre outras novas funcionalidades, a possibilidade de roaming de chamadas terminadas. Os dois produtos possuem outras características diferentes e planos de tarifa próprios. O objetivo da pesquisa é avaliar como o cliente pré-pago da Americel percebe a funcionalidade de roaming de chamadas terminadas. A pesquisa pretende avaliar a importância do serviço para o cliente, como ele avalia o serviço prestado pela empresa e como essa funcionalidade é classificada (básica, de desempenho ou de encantamento). A partir da compreensão da percepção do cliente quanto ao roaming, será avaliada a estratégia de marketing de segmentar o mercado pré-pago por meio dessa funcionalidade. VI A metodologia empregada utiliza-se de ferramentas de medição da satisfação dos clientes. A Americel realiza mensalmente uma pesquisa de satisfação com uma amostra de 400 clientes que são entrevistados por telefone. O questionário de pesquisa possui 50 perguntas sobre vários aspectos relacionados à prestação do serviço. Os resultados anteriores dessa pesquisa apontam a cobertura como sendo a característica mais importante do serviço do ponto de vista do cliente e, ao mesmo tempo, uma característica mal avaliada por ele. A pesquisa também demonstra uma confusão do cliente que, quando questionado sobre onde necessita de cobertura, indica regiões onde a empresa não atua e, portanto, não poderia oferecer cobertura, mas roaming. Para uma parte dos clientes, roaming e cobertura são o mesmo atributo. Foram acrescentadas ao questionário padrão perguntas relacionadas ao roaming. As perguntas foram elaboradas para avaliar a freqüência com que os clientes viajam, a importância atribuída ao roaming, a avaliação do serviço de roaming e a avaliação geral da Americel. Os resultados permitem concluir que, apesar do usuário do serviço pré-pago não viajar freqüentemente, ele considera a funcionalidade de roaming como importante ou muito importante. A avaliação do serviço é ruim, o que implica na necessidade de priorizar ações no sentido de melhorar o serviço de roaming para os clientes pré-pago. Isso pode ser feito através da extensão do oferecimento do roaming a todos os clientes pré-pago. O resultado da análise penalidade-recompensa foi de que a funcionalidade de roaming é uma funcionalidade de desempenho do Serviço Móvel Celular. Isso significa que sua ausência causa insatisfação do cliente, enquanto sua presença aumenta a sua satisfação. Sendo assim, mais uma vez é confirmada a necessidade de oferecimento dessa facilidade a toda a base de clientes pré-pago. A pesquisa permite, então, concluir que a estratégia de marketing de segmentar o mercado de clientes pré-pago por meio do uso da facilidade de roaming tem como conseqüência final a insatisfação do cliente, uma vez que, de acordo com sua percepção, o roaming é uma funcionalidade importante do serviço móvel celular, que deve ser oferecido para toda a base de clientes. As características do serviço que devem ser usadas para segmentação devem ser aquelas que, quando ausentes, não causam insatisfação nos clientes, mas, quando presentes, o encantam.

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.

The pharmaceutical industry is a segment that is dominated by transnational companies. This characteristic is visible in Brazil, where there are only three domestic laboratories in the top ten pharmaceutical companies list. From the 1970s onwards, the world pharmaceutical market went through deep changes caused mainly to the increase of regulatory control and patent expiration that led to the advent of generic medicaments. In 1999, it was published the law that allowed the introduction of generic medicaments in Brazil, creating a new market that is currently dominated by domestic laboratories. This dissertation proposes to identify the reasons for a subsidiary of foreign laboratory does not achieve the leadership of this market. The literature is based on international political economy and international business concepts that means, relations between subsidiary and head office, domestic and foreign companies and government. Four propositions are presented and tested through multiple sources of evidences. The empirical research was mainly grounded in interviews with key persons and participant observation that allowed access to information, which would be not available for scientific investigation. The results indicate that the relationships considered in this study affect the subsidiary performance in generic medicament market in regard to its ability to make decisions, price competitiveness and wide portfolio creation. The respondents considered those three aspects as success critical factors. The results can be used for future research, aiming to wide the focus of the study about domestic laboratory dominance in generic medicament markets. Another suggestion is to follow this market evolution regarding to the internationalization process of domestic laboratories.

The Internet has taken the world by storm. It has eliminated the barriers of technology, and unlocked the doors to electronic commerce and the 'Virtual Economy'. It has given us a glimpse into the future of 'Business' itself, and it has created a bewildering variety of choices in our personal and professional lives. It has taken on a life of its own, and we are all frantically trying to keep up. Many overwhelmed companies are asking questions like: 'What should our Internet Strategy be?' Or 'How do we put our business on the Internet like everybody else is doing?' or 'How do we use this thing to make money without spending any?'. These questions may seem reasonable on the surface, but they miss the point because they focus on the technologies rather than the core issues of conducting day-to-day business. The Internet can indeed offer fast returns in marketing reach, speed, director consumer sales and so on, and many companies are using it to good advantage, but the highest and best use of any such technology is to support, enhance and even re-invent the fundamentals of general business practice. When the initial excitement is over, and companies gain experience and confidence with the new business models, this larger view will begin to assert itself. Companies will then start to position their 'Internet Strategies' in context of where the business world itself is going over time, and how they can prepare for what is to come. Until now, the business world has been very fragmented, its collective progress limited (in part) by the inability to communicate within and between companies. Now that the technical remedy seems to be at hand and standards are beginning to emerge, we are starting to see a trend toward consolidation, cooperation, and economic synergy. Companies are improving their internal business processes with Intranets, and Electronic Commerce initiatives have sprung up using EDI, the World Wide Web, E-Mail, secure credit card payments and other tools. Companies are using the Internet to talk to each other and to sell their goods and services to the end consumer. Like Berlin, the walls are coming down because they have to. Electronic 'Communities of Common Interest' are beginning to surface, with the goal of supporting and aligning similar industries (such as Government, Insurance, Transportation and Health care) or similar business functions (such as Purchasing, Payments, and Human Resources). As these communities grow and mature, their initial scope will broaden and their spheres of influence will expand. They will begin to overlap into other communities, creating a synergistic effect and reshaping the conduct of business. The business world will undergo a gradual evolution toward globalization, driven by economic imperatives and natural selection in the marketplace, and facilitated by Electronic Commerce and Internet technologies. The business world 'beyond 2000' will have a substantially different look and feel than that which we see today.

o presente trabalho averigua os modelos estratégicos atuais e, sua aplicabilidade nas pequenas empresas no que tange à viabilidade financeira de projetos dirigidos a esse assunto. Procurou-se desenvolver a pesquisa com o objetivo de investigar a influência e a operacionalidade dos modelos correntes de estratégia, na liquidez das pequenas empresas, de modo a transformar os dados destas analises financeiras básicas em ferramentas estratégicas de minimização de risco. O método utilizado para o estudo foi o da exploração de literatura de planejamento estratégico e análise financeira de tomada de decisão. Aplicação da teoria foi verificada em uma amostra não generalística e préestabelecida pelo autor, através de um questionário objetivo. As perguntas constantes neste questionário contemplaram a verificação do nível dos conceitos estratégicos presentes nas empresas, suas condições atuais perante a perspectiva financeira e a disponibilidade da aplicação dos conceitos em projetos de planejamento estratégico. Os resultados revelaram a presença de vários conceitos e diretrizes teóricas; porém na averiguação da condição financeira, as empresas pesquisadas apresentaram, através de notas, estado de li qui dez enxuto e com pouca margem de folga para investimentos na área estratégica. O contraponto da pesquisa foi dado pelo modo que como as empresas estão sendo obrigadas a esta análise, por mais que haja conhecimento do assunto, estes critérios não estão sendo utilizados, fato observado na terceira seção do questionário. As conclusões demonstraram que as pequenas empresas pesquisadas oferecem condições de desenvolvimentos estratégicos na forma de adaptações. A teoria informou que isto também constitui um procedimento válido. Porém os conceitos dessas adaptações devem ser avaliados perante a perspectiva da viabilidade financeira e de composição dos custos de capital a ser aplicado. Isto estabelece, além da implantação do início da adaptação estratégica, o uso de ferramentas financeiras básicas e de critérios de análise de risco, sendo esses fatos extremamente compatíveis com o tamanho das empresas e com os preceitos estratégicos. Assim, a hipótese estipula pelo trabalho apresentou compatibilidade com a pesquisa visto que, a teoria corrente demonstrou não ser viável para os gestores, ou ainda, ser aplicada para os casos em estudo. O texto e a pesquisa demonstram isto de modo que, para o caso das pequenas empresas a solução é a adaptação estratégica com estudo de viabilidade e, não a aceitação completa dos modelos propostos normalmente.

A Empresa Brasileira de Correios e Telégrafos (ECT) tem se engajado no esforço de exploração do mercado brasileiro de mensagens h íbridas mediante a prestação de serviços de correio híbrido, os quais permitem a remessa eletrônica e a entrega física de correspondências. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi analisar o posicionamento estratégico mais adequado para a ECT no mencionado mercado. Para tanto, procurou-se atingir os seguintes objetivos intermediários: i) apresentar o conceito de correio híbrido, seu processo de funcionamento, prestadores e usuários potenciais do serviço; ii) descrever a ECT e analisar seu contexto de atuação; iii) avaliar o mercado potencial de mensagens híbridas que a ECT pretende explorar através dos serviços de correio híbrido e iv) analisar a estrutura da indústria postal no Brasil. Para a elaboração do estudo, adotou-se, como referencial teórico, os seguintes modelos conceituais desenvolvidos por Michael Porter (1989): as cinco forças competitivas, a cadeia de valores e as estratégias competitivas genéricas. A partir dos resultados obtidos, concluiu-se que a estrutura da indústria postal brasileira recomenda a adoção de uma posição de baixo custo e escopo competitivo amplo no mercado de mensagens híbridas. Além disso, verificou-se que as soluções de correio híbrido constituem um tipo de inovação que pode ter um enorme efeito positivo não apenas sobre o custo, mas também sobre a diferenciação. Deste modo, recomenda-se que a ECT explore todas as oportunidades de diferenciação abertas pelo correio híbrido que não comprometam a posição de baixo custo, visto ser este o alvo estratégico primário.

Este trabalho teve como objetivo estudar um tópico pouco explorado quanto às empresas familiares que é a sucessão após a segunda geração. Procurou-se conhecer um pouco mais sobre as empresas familiares as quais se encontram na terceira geração em diante assim como entender a razão de terem conseguido este feito, pois, de acordo com vários outros estudos, apenas uma pequena minoria das empresas familiares alcança a terceira geração. Para alcançar o objetivo abordou-se no referencial teórico qual a origem das empresas familiares brasileiras, os conceitos de empresa familiar que diferem entre si conforme a ótica abordada, as suas características, assim como os pontos fortes e fracos das empresas familiares, as fases do processo de sucessão, os erros capitais que podem ocorrer na sucessão, as ações preventivas que podem servir como facilitadoras do processo sucessório, além de outros pontos de relevante importância para os empreendimentos familiares. Depois de feita a abordagem teórica, foi investigado através de pesquisa de campo em quatro empresas as quais se encontram sob o comando da terceira, quarta e quinta geração, se as indicações da literatura como condicionantes para o sucesso no processo de transição entre as gerações seriam as razões para o êxito destas empresas no quesito sucessão. A coleta de dados foi feita através de entrevistas com os diretores que fazem parte da família, das empresas selecionadas, seguindo-se um roteiro de questões fechadas abordando cinco temas principais: a sucessão e o seu planejamento; o envolvimento da família no processo sucessório; a preparação do sucessor; a profissionalização da empresa e da família e finalmente, o envolvimento com a empresa durante a infância e adolescência, sendo que este provou ser o tema de maior relevância, pois foi capaz de explicar o êxito na sucessão das empresas pesquisadas.
