Comunicação pública e acesso à informação: análise da atuação da SABESP em plataformas virtuais

This undergraduate research final paper analyzed the communication process carried out by the São Paulo State Water and Sanitation Company - Sabesp from the perspective of public communication, social capital and right to information theories. By monitoring Sabesp's institutional fanpage and website from 24 to 30 August 2015, it sought to assess the performance of Sabesp in disclosing public information on the context of the water supply crisis in São Paulo, concerning the fulfillment of requirements of the Right to Information Law (12.527/2011) and the need for interaction and dialogue between the institution and its stakeholders, taken as principles of public communication. The results suggest that digital media can enhance information flow and contribute to foster public relations and civic participation, but there are opportunities for Sabesp to improve communication and reach greater transparency

Reforma del estado como mecanismo de control en democracia delegativa: caso reforma judicial Ecuador 2007-2014

The object of this doctoral thesis is the analysis of the political and administrative purpose that is given to the reform process of a vital sector of State powers within the framework of delegate democracy, such as the administration of Justice. The object is also to analyze if State reform in a diminished or non-liberal surrounding increase or improve conditions of democracy in a given situation, based on the constitutional “what should be”, or if what occurs is a process of “seizure” of the functions of State, which becomes an institutional risk. Finally, we will examine the real and effective existence of a horizontal accountability process through the use of institutional resources, which would evidence the existence of an incomplete model of democracy. This analysis implies the relationship between two institutions within public administration: State Reform, as an act of change in State structure in order to improve qualitatively the outcomes and outputs of public policies, and in sum, to make the system work better. This, as it will be examined later, is the case of Latin America as a response of the State to three processes in crisis: fiscal, as in government intervention or in the form of bureaucratic administration. In that scheme of things, this thesis examines the present state of the art in public administration science of this process to prove that in delegate democracy, this type of instruments disregard the constitutive elements of democracy and serve, especially in critical areas of the administration, allowing for Power to dismiss Law. This research seeks to contribute towards an area seldom analyzed regarding public administration doctrine under the light of the theory of law, which is the connection between previous conditions or principal inputs of an execution process of a democracy and, on the other hand, regarding the effects of introducing a reform within models of a changing democracy and new concepts of the rule of law. While reviewing writings regarding State reform, it is clear that no approximations have been previously made in reference to prior conditions of the political system in order to begin operating a reform which respects fundamental rights as an object of this procedure. Furthermore, no analysis has been found regarding structural change of strategic areas in State services as to the effect caused on democratic exercise and the outcome in an open society...

The task itself is not new, identification and authentication was necessary always in public administration and business life. Information Society offers new services for citizens, which dramatically change the way of administration and results additional risks and opportunities. The goal of the demonstrated research was to formulate a common basis for the identity management domain in order to support the management of the surrounding multidimensional environment. There is a need for capturing, mapping, processing knowledge concerning identity management in order to support reusability, interoperability; to help common sharing and understanding the domain and to avoid inconsistency. The paper summarizes research activities for the identification, conceptualisation and representation of domain knowledge related to identity management, using the results of knowledge management, artificial intelligence and information technology. I utilized the experiences of Guide project, in which I participate. The paper demonstrates, that domain ontologies could offer a proper solution for identity management domain conceptualisation.

Projeto de intervenção adaptando o Balanced Scorecard ao sistema de compras da Base Aérea de Natal

The present proposal for intervention examines the issue of public procurements carried out by a military organization on a Federal Public Administration. The main objective of this paper is to propose a model of strategic planning based on the Balanced Scorecard for the public procurement system, which contributes to increased efficiency, efficacy and effectiveness of acquisitions made in the Air Base of Natal city. Therefore, Structured interviews were used in order to make a diagnosis of the current reality of the procurement system along with the main requirement sectors of BANT, as well as the adaptation of the prospects of the BSC based on literature review. The technique used for the analysis of the interviews was the analysis of content whose results contributed to the preparation of the conceptual Strategic Map which was submitted to validation through a Focal Group. It was concluded through the analysis of the interviews, that the system of purchases of BANT is in a tactical profile because of low interaction between the system of purchases and the requirement sectors, aiming only at the “economicity” of acquisition in opposition of the effectiveness of material acquired, the lack of training of the elements which build the system and the absence of a proper planning. It is intended with thecreation of this proposal to contribute to the improvement of management with a focus on results in public administration as well as increasing efficiency, efficacy and effectiveness of public procurements. Whereas for the particular case the measurement of the results can only be performed after at least a year of its implementation, the present research constitutes a proposal of intervention.

The Interaction Between Monetary and Fiscal Policies (Working Paper 30)

One can view the period since 1970 as one in which the authorities struggled to establish appropriate medium-term anchors for both monetary and fiscal policies. During this time, they learned about the appropriate interaction between those two policies in the context of economic stabilization and growth under a flexible exchange rate regime. This lecture deals with four interrelated topics: the appropriate goals for fiscal and monetary policy, building policy credibility, the appropriate stabilization role for the two policies, and policy cooperation. The transparent medium term frameworks that have been established by the authorities will be extremely helpful in meeting the challenges that the future is sure to bring. These frameworks mean that the required adjustments in the economy will take place against a relatively stable background. Thank you for the invitation to give the Gow Lecture for 2002. Donald Gow had a great interest in public administration and in budgetary reform in the federal government (Gow 1973). He was one in a long line of

Satisfação/motivação dos enfermeiros profissão, serviço e hierarquia

Apesar de décadas de estudos, as opiniões são controversas. Não existe uma opinião comum entre os pesquisadores sobre o que é e como ocorre a motivação, a satisfação e a insatisfação no trabalho. As condições físicas dos serviços são um factor primordial para a motivação, satisfação ou insatisfação do trabalhador, assim como o tipo de liderança existente no mesmo. Ao longo da nossa história tem-se assistido a muitos exemplos de liderança, uns mais, outros menos eficazes. A satisfação no trabalho é um estado afectivo resultante da apreciação das características percebidas do trabalho e da organização. Neste contexto de mudanças na administração pública em geral e na área da saúde em particular, surge este estudo em contexto hospitalar, motivado pela necessidade de conhecer a satisfação dos enfermeiros de um Centro Hospitalar de Lisboa e a relação com algumas variáveis sócio demográficas. Optou-se pelo paradigma quantitativo, numa amostra de 122 inquiridos pertencentes a um grupo de profissionais de enfermagem de um Hospital Central de Lisboa. Para a elaboração da parte empírica utilizou-se o método por questionário de escolha múltipla. Os objectivos definidos: Objectivo Geral: perceber o nível de motivação/ satisfação dos enfermeiros relativamente à profissão ao serviço e à hierarquia. Objectivos específicos: Identificar o nível de satisfação/motivação dos enfermeiros dos serviços estudados relativamente à profissão, em função das variáveis sociodemográficas. - Caracterizar os aspectos com os quais os enfermeiros têm maior e menor satisfação relacionados com a profissão, serviço e hierarquia. - Identificar se existe relação entre o nível de motivação/satisfação e os sintomas físicos sentidos. Os participantes da amostra são, maioritariamente do sexo feminino, a média de idades é de 32 anos, grande percentagem já tem como habilitações profissionais a licenciatura, têm entre 1 e 28 anos de profissão e 1 e 28 anos no serviço actual, 17,2% exercem funções de chefia. Grande percentagem da amostra tem como horário semanal de trabalho 35 horas e trabalham em horário rotativo. Os enfermeiros são profissionais que mostram insatisfação relativamente à profissão e hierarquia e moderada satisfação relativamente aos serviços. A satisfação dos enfermeiros quanto à profissão altera-se de acordo com o horário de trabalho, vínculo à instituição e os sentimentos que os mesmos têm relativamente ao trabalho. A satisfação dos enfermeiros relativamente ao serviço altera-se consoante o tempo de profissão e com os sentimentos que os profissionais apresentam relativamente ao trabalho. Quanto à satisfação dos enfermeiros relativamente à hierarquia altera-se dependendo da idade dos profissionais, do tempo de profissão e do serviço onde desempenham. Relativamente à satisfação geral com o trabalho, esta pode alterar dependendo da idade, do tempo de profissão, do serviço onde desempenham funções e dos sentimentos dos profissionais relativamente ao trabalho. De salientar que ao analisarmos os serviços estudados separadamente concluímos que os enfermeiros do serviço de urgência são profissionais muito insatisfeitos com a hierarquia e os enfermeiros da Unidade de Urgência Médica são profissionais pouco satisfeitos, mas apesar de tudo satisfeitos com a hierarquia. ABSTRACT; Behind decades of studies, the opinions are controversial. There is a common opinion among researchers about what is and how is the motivation, satisfaction and dissatisfaction at work. The physical conditions of services are a major factor in motivation, satisfaction or dissatisfaction of the worker and the type of leadership exists in it. Throughout our history have seen many examples of leadership, some more, some less effective. Job satisfaction is an affective state resulting from the assessment of the perceived characteristics of work and organization. ln this context of changes in public administration in general and in health in particular, this study appears in the hospital setting, motivated by the need to know the satisfaction of nurses in a Hospital in Lisbon and the relationship with sociodemographic variables. We chose the quantitative paradigm in a sample of 122 respondents belonging to a group of nursing professionals in a central hospital in Lisbon. ln developing the empirical part we used the method for multiple-choice test. The objectives: General Objective: To understand the level of motivation I satisfaction of nurses for the profession and the service hierarchy. Specific objectives: To identify the level of satisfaction I motivation of nursing service studied for the profession, according to the socio-demographic variables. - Characterize the points with which nurses have the highest and lowest satisfaction related to the profession, service and hierarchy. - To identify if there is a relationship between the level of motivation I satisfaction and physical symptoms felt. The sample participants are mostly female, average age is 32 years, a large percentage already has the professional qualifications of the degree, are between and 28 years of occupation and 1 and 28 in the current service, 17.2 % hold positions of leadership. A great percentage of the sample has the working week and working 35 hours on rotating schedule. Nurses are professionals who show dissatisfaction with the profession and the hierarchy and moderately satisfied for the services, the latter fact can be justified by what is possible when the organization professionals are available and perform functions in service to their liking and they like to work. The satisfaction of nurses as the profession changes according to working hours, commitment to the institution and the feelings they have for the work. The satisfaction of nurses for the service changes depending on the length of service and with the feelings that professionals are on the job. The satisfaction of nurses from the hierarchy will change depending on the age of professionals, time and professional service where they play. For the overall satisfaction with the work, this may change depending on age, length of employment, where the service functions and the feelings of the professionals for the job. Note that when analyzing the services studied separately concluded that the nurses in the emergency department professionals are very unhappy with the hierarchy and the nurses of the Unit of Emergency Medical professionals are somewhat satisfied but still happy

Controle social e transparência : avaliação do modelo de acesso à informação no Brasil

O objetivo principal deste estudo é avaliar se as medidas e ações implementadas pelos governantes para aperfeiçoar o modelo de governança pública brasileiro estão contribuindo para elevar o nível de controle social e de transparência na administração pública. Pressupomos que a promoção da transparência e do acesso à informação é uma medida essencial para o fortalecimento do controle social e da democracia, e por decorrência, para a melhoria da qualidade da gestão pública. Trata-se de um artigo teóricoempírico e bibliográfico, apoiado nas abordagens das teorias da governança, neoinstitucional e da agência. A partir da literatura, relatórios e das normas legais, buscamos identificar inicialmente as motivações que levaram à adaptação e transferência das experiências da governança corporativa para o setor público. Realizou-se, ainda, uma pesquisa de campo para avaliar a qualidades das informações das despesas públicas disponibilizadas pelos portais de transparência dos 200 municípios mais populosos do país. Conclui-se, por fim, que ainda existem inúmeros desafios e obstáculos a serem superados nos âmbitos sociocultural e institucional. Essas dificuldades são agravadas por deficiências de competência e de valores éticos e morais dos governantes e políticos, essenciais para viabilizar uma boa governança pública, elevar a transparência e aumentar o controle social no Brasil. _______________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT

A Administração pública do século XXI: Aprendizagem organizacional, mudança comportamental e reforma administrativa

Este artigo pretende salientar a importância da Aprendizagem Organizacional, e consequentemente da mudança comportamental, no contexto da reforma da Administração Pública no século XXI. Para tal começamos por fazer uma breve resenha sobre a evolução dos mais proeminentes paradigmas da Ciência Administrativa da segunda metade do século XX. De seguida apresentamos o conceito de Aprendizagem Organizacional na perspectiva mais tradicionalista, mas sobretudo enquanto elemento dependente versus potenciador de novos tipos de relacionamento e de comportamento organizacional. Por fim, explorase a questão da importância da mudança dos comportamentos no contexto da reforma administrativa. Para tal desenvolvemos os conceitos de: 1) mudança dos comportamentos; 2) resistência à mudança na Administração Pública; 3) associação “inovação/rotina” como força motriz das organizações públicas; 4) recurso à “ciência da complexidade” como tónico para a mudança comportamental na Administração Pública.

As ferramentas de gestão estratégica na avaliação de desempenho organizacional das Forças Armadas

As organizações em geral procuram alcançar objetivos, adotando estratégias que lhes permitam cumprir aquele desiderato com a máxima eficiência e eficácia. Os ramos das Forças Armadas procuram implementar a estratégia ao longo de um período que, face ao impacto das alterações entretanto verificadas, exige a capacidade para fazer ajustamentos àquela estratégia inicial. Nesse sentido, recorrem a ferramentas para avaliar o desempenho organizacional, que lhes permita saber qual o desempenho real e quais os ajustamentos necessários a fazer para alcançar esses objetivos. O objeto de estudo são as ferramentas de gestão estratégica utilizadas pelos ramos das Forças Armadas com o objetivo de analisar a sua pertinência, a sua eficiência na avaliação do desempenho organizacional e as diferenças relativamente ao Sistema Integrado de Gestão e Avaliação do Desempenho na Administração Pública (SIADAP). Seguiu-se uma estratégia de investigação qualitativa e um desenho de pesquisa comparativo, verificando-se que as ferramentas de gestão estratégica são pertinentes para a formulação e implementação da estratégia, são eficientes na avaliação do desempenho organizacional e diferenciam-se do SIADAP por integrarem a formulação, a implementação e a avaliação da estratégia segundo quatro perspetivas relevantes para o cumprimento da missão dos ramos das Forças Armadas. Abstract: The general organizations seek to achieve goals, adopting strategies that will enable them to fulfil that desideratum with maximum efficiency and effectiveness. The branches of the armed forces seek to implement the strategy over a period that address the impact of changes however checked, and it requires the ability to make adjustments to that initial strategy. In that sense, they use tools to assess organizational performance, enabling them to know what the actual performance and what adjustments needed to do to achieve those goals. The object of study are the strategic management tools used in the branches of the armed forces, with the aim of analysing their relevance, their effectiveness in assessing organizational performance and the differences from the Integrated Management and Performance Evaluation System in Public Administration (SIADAP). There was a qualitative research strategy and a comparative research design, verifying that the strategic management tools are relevant to the formulation and implementation of strategy, are effective in assessing organizational performance and differentiate SIADAP by integrating the formulation, implementation and evaluation of the strategy in four relevant perspectives to fulfil the mission of the branches of the armed forces.
