Entrepreneurship education in Portugal: 2004/2005 national survey

Education in entrepreneurship is a relatively new addition to the curriculum of institutions of higher education in Portugal. Forty-one percent of the current courses were first offered in 2003 or 2004. This recent awakening to the importance of entrepreneurship education is both reactive to the needs of the market as well as pro-active through the interests of professors. As the developing phenomenon of entrepreneurship education grows there is an urgent need to better understand and develop this area through academic research. Pedagogy, course content, the use of technology as well as other parallel initiatives related to entrepreneurship education in Portugal are the primary focus of this national survey of academic year 2004/2005. The majority (76.5%) of professors surveyed stated that their university has plans to create an entrepreneurship/innovation center. However, it is believed that roles and activities that a “center” must have to be effective are, as of yet, not well-defined in the Portuguese context. In developing future initiatives, Portugal could benefit by looking at models from other countries that have well-developed entrepreneurship educational offerings and support structures. Findings indicate that current course pedagogy in Portugal relies heavily on business plan creation and theoretical lectures and seldom makes use of computer business simulations, role-playing or internships. In addition, greater use of the Internet as a method for disseminating information to students and entrepreneurs could help “market” entrepreneurship education better and improve the perception of those students not currently taking an entrepreneurship course.

Recursos humanos no futebol : o perfil do diretor desportivo nas organizações desportivas de futebol : proposta de modelo de formação

As competências necessárias para dirigir as actuais organizações do futebol são cada vez mais exigentes, mais abrangentes e mais complexas, sendo assim menos compatíveis com o tradicional amadorismo em que se desenvolveu todo o associativismo desportivo. Neste sentido, urgia o aparecimento de um gestor capaz de assumir como principal responsabilidade a direção executiva do futebol e funcionar como elo de ligação entre a administração e o treinador da equipa profissional. Essa função é atualmente denominada de Diretor Desportivo (DD). O DD, enquanto profissional, assume uma importância decisiva na gestão destas organizações. As suas competências e conhecimentos são um ativo que pode ser aproveitado dentro do grupo de trabalho, beneficiando as instituições de capital humano com potencial inovador e estratégico. Assim, um dos objetivos deste estudo prende-se com a determinação do perfil do Diretor Desportivo presente nas organizações de futebol, assim como a análise das funções que desempenha nas organizações, fazendo uma caracterização das mesmas. Em termos metodológicos, optámos pela realização de inquéritos aos diretores desportivos dos clubes de futebol em Portugal, presentes em vários níveis de competição (1ª Liga, 2ª Liga e Campeonato Nacional de Séniores) na época 2014/2015, obtendo um total de 30 inquéritos válidos. Como resultado desta investigação, e verificando as lacunas existentes ao nível da formação especializada para o cargo, propusemos um modelo de formação para diretores desportivos das organizações de futebol.
