Gestão compartilhada de P&D em petróleo:a interação entre a Petrobrás e a Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte

This work addresses the relationship between University-Firm aims to understand the model of shared management of R&D in petroleum of Petrobras with UFRN. This is a case study which sought to investigate whether the model of cooperation established by the two institutions brings innovation to generate technical-scientific knowledge and contribute to the coordination with other actors in the promotion of technological innovation. In addition to desk research the necessary data for analysis were obtained by sending questionnaires to the coordinators of projects in R&D at the company and university. Also, interviews were conducted with subjects who participated in the study since its inception to the present day. This case study were analysed through the Resource-Based View and Interorganizational Networks theory. The sample data also stands that: searches were aligned to the strategic planning and that 29% of R&D projects have been successful on the scope of the proposed objectives (of which 11% were incorporated into business processes); which was produced technical and scientific knowledge caracterized by hundreds of national and international publications; thesis, dissertations, eleven patents, and radical and incremental innovations; the partnership has also brought benefits to the academic processes induced by the improved infrastructure UFRN and changing the "attitude" of the university (currently with national prominence in research and staff training for the oil sector). As for the model, the technical point of view, although it has some problems, it follows that it is appropriate. From the viewpoint of the management model is criticized for containing an excess of bureaucracy. From the standpoint of strategic allocation of resources from the legal framework needs to be reassessed, because it is focused only on the college level and it is understood that should also reach the high school given the new reality of the oil sector in Brazil. For this it is desirable to add the local government to this partnership. The set of information leads to the conclusion that the model is identified and named as a innovation of organizational arrangement here known as Shared Management of R&D in petroleum of Petrobras with UFRN. It is said that the shared management model it is possible to exist, which is a simple and effective way to manage partnerships between firms and Science and Technology Institutions. It was created by contingencies arising from regulatory stand points and resource dependence. The partnership is the result of a process of Convergence, Construction and Evaluation supported by the tripod Simplicity, Systematization and Continuity, important factors for its consolidation. In practice an organizational arrangement was built to manage innovative university-industry partnership that is defined by a dyadic relationship on two levels (institutional and technical, therefore governance is hybrid), by measuring the quarterly meetings of systematic and standardized financial contribution proportional to the advancement of research. These details have led to the establishment of a point of interaction between the scientific and technological-business dimension, demystifying they are two worlds apart

Gestão por Competências em Organizações Públicas: O Processo de Transformação Organizacional e seus Impactos Junto aos Servidores na Secretaria Estadual de Administração e Recursos Humanos (SEARH/RN)

The state has changed over time in order to meet a society with increasingly stringent demands. Techniques of private means begin to be employed in an attempt to overcome the dysfunctions entrenched bureaucracy, making the machine faster. By federal law by the People Management Skills was established as a reference for the administration of Human Resources of the public sector in an attempt to develop professionally servers, based mainly on the three pillars of the model: the knowledge, skills and attitudes. This thesis aims at understanding, in the view of employees, the perceived impacts on the organizational changes occurring in the Department of Administration and Human Resources of the State of Rio Grande do Norte in order to implement a People Management Skills-based. It is a simple case study, characterized by the research during a certain period of time, collecting data in a real environment of an organization, in this case SEARH/RN. The procedures used in collecting data were the literature review, documental research and field research. We used a qualitative approach with exploratory and descriptive approach. Every reform was implemented in the institution and reported from there analyzed the impacts observed by the servers. As a result we observed a considerable advance in institutional activities, mainly relating to physical structure / organizational and human resource policies, with minor advances on labor policies, in much the result of the guiding focus of the reform on SEARH/RN. The impacts in total were more positive than negative and direct paths to improvement in public organizations. Making a general analysis of the modernization program implemented in SEARH/RN, we can conclude that there was a distinct change in all dimensions studied, mostly pointing out positive aspects, and contrary to the opinion of some authors, who claim to be very difficult to implement reforms in public organizations, since they are highly institutionalized environments. What was found was a big organization, with gaps and weaknesses, but with a much larger number of hits and recognition from institutional actors

Governança global na Amazônia: o programa piloto para a Proteção das Florestas Tropicais do Brasil

A Amazônia deixou de ser apenas uma questão regional e nacional, tornandose decisivamente uma questão global. Envolta nas contradições do capitalismo global, tornou-se, ainda alvo de interesses e pressões externas, notadamente pelos recursos estratégicos e vitais que dispõe para a segurança planetária. O Programa Piloto para a Proteção das Florestas Tropicais do Brasil (PPG-7) surge como caso emblemático de inserção da Amazônia num esforço de governança global, processo esse orientado por uma multiplicidade de atores, coalizões e estratégias. Neste sentido, oriundo das lutas socioambientalistas, no plano da sociedade civil brasileira e dos movimentos transnacionais, o PPG-7 foi um componente importante de redefinição das políticas ambientais no Brasil, alargando a esfera pública e contribuindo para a germinação de uma sociedade civil global conectada por redes na Amazônia.

Do global ao nacional: a gênese da governança e das políticas públicas sobre mudança do clima no Brasil (1992-2012)

O presente trabalho tem como objetivo identificar a forma como foi gerado o paradigma das políticas públicas sobre mudança climáticas no Brasil. Para alcançar este objetivo faz-se necessário um percurso analítico do que de mais relevante foi produzido nesse período, partindo da realidade Global em direção à realidade nacional. Considera-se que tais políticas públicas assentam-se em duas categorias básicas: globalização e governança. Os estudos sobre a globalização abordado neste trabalho, e sua dimensão ambiental, a partir do momento em que têm influenciado a agenda política dos Estados nacionais, resulta na contribuição da construção de uma governança contemporânea, especialmente o conceito de governança global climática, baseada na intersecção da governança global com as questões ambientais que dizem respeito aos efeitos negativos gerados pela mudança do clima. Entre as características dessa categoria estão a presença de novos atores, novos temas e nova correlação de forças, o que exige uma nova reorientação dos Estados nacionais, para o entendimento e o reconhecimento de novos padrões, inclusive os informais, não captados pelas instituições governamentais, ou seja, um sistema de governança exigido pela nova realidade impactada pela globalização, que apresenta desafios à ordem constituída, como a problemática das mudanças climáticas, evidenciado na instituição da Convenção Quadro sobre Mudança Climática e no Protocolo de Quioto das Nações Unidas. Finalizamos, mostrando como esse paradigma influenciou a construção das políticas nacionais e subnacionais sobre mudanças climáticas no Brasil.
