A importância da Motivação dos Recursos Humanos para a garantia de uma maior Produtividade Estudo comparativo entre as Empresas Pública, Privada e de Capital Mista

Para enfrentar os desafios com que se deparam atualmente, as empresas deverão apostar mais nos seus trabalhadores, e principalmente, preocupar-se em criar estímulos, de forma a motivá-los para que possam alcançar os seus objectivos, como também os objectivos pessoais de cada trabalhador. Pois pensar apenas em obter o lucro e a produtividade, não incrementando políticas de benefícios sociais como prática que privilegia os recursos humanos, certamente não será uma boa opção e o caminho mais indicado para o alcance das suas metas. A atribuição de benefícios sociais aos trabalhadores, esta a obter cada vez mais importância no seio das empresas. Esta a tornar-se cada vez mais crucial para qualquer empresa, a elaboração de políticas benefícios sociais dadas as melhorias verificadas no modo de entrega no trabalho e, consequentemente conduz a um aumento de produtividade. Existem diversos tipos de benefícios sociais atribuídos, tendo como objectivo, o aumento do grau de motivação dos trabalhadores, sendo que, de acordo com as pretensões, as empresas podem adoptar os benefícios sociais que mais se adequam as necessidades dos seus trabalhadores e a sua condição económica e financeira.As políticas de benefícios sociais como um instrumento de motivação dos trabalhadores é actualmente muito utilizado nas empresas, que utilizam estilos de gestão modernos e orientados para a estratégia. Neste sentido, pretende-se ilustrar os tipos de benefícios sociais existentes nas empresas e a sua relação directa na motivação dos trabalhadores, particularmente em três empresas Cabo-verdiana em estudo. Em termos metodológicos, recorreu-se ao método da pesquisa bibliográfica, ao estudo de caso nas empresas IFH, Tecnicil Industria e a Caixa Económica de Cabo Verde, à aplicação de questionário aos trabalhadores das três empresas e à entrevista feitas com os responsáveis pelo Departamento de Recurso Humano nas referidas empresas.

Cosmopolitan Capital and the Internationalization of the Field of Business Elites: Evidence from the Swiss Case

The aim of this contribution is to explore how the recent internationalization and the increasing importance of 'cosmopolitan capital' has impacted on the structure and character of the field of the Swiss business elite. For this purpose we will develop the notion of cosmopolitan capital and comparatively investigate the field of the Swiss business elite in 1980, 2000 and 2010 with multiple correspondence analysis. We can show that in this period international managers with transnational careers and networks not only grow in number, but come to conquer the apex of the biggest and highest capitalized Swiss firms. At the same time, national forms of capital decline in importance and Swiss managers themselves are differentiated increasingly into national and international fractions.
