Uma análise do estágio do processo de gestão do conhecimento em um ambiente organizacional

O presente projeto desenvolve a ideia de que a gestão do conhecimento será eficiente se contemplar o conhecimento em suas duas principais modalidades: tácito, presente na mente das pessoas, e explícito, presente nos registros da organização, nos manuais e nos procedimentos. A conversão do primeiro para o segundo é a essência da criação do conhecimento. Seguindo esse princípio, a gestão organizacional deverá criar condições para trocas de experiências entre as pessoas, para que a conversão e consequente compartilhamento do conhecimento fluam de forma dinâmica na estrutura organizacional. Por um lado, a tecnologia é um meio de acesso para facilitar a disseminação da informação, por outro, a cultura organizacional deverá contribuir com elementos incentivadores à criação de novas ideias. Considerando esses preceitos, o projeto discutirá o relacionamento entre os conhecimentos tácito e explícito em quatro tipos de conversão: socialização, externalização, combinação e internalização.

Relatório de estágio: uma experiência de gestão do desporto na Associação de Basquetebol da Madeira

Estamos perante um mundo laboral em constante mutação, mais exigente e selecionador e a realidade desportiva não é exceção. Neste contexto, é indispensável ao profissional de desporto a obtenção de conhecimentos multidisciplinares e de relacionamento interpessoal, imperativos ao nível do desenvolvimento sustentável e continuado das organizações desportivas. Assim, para intervir no mundo do desporto, é necessário deter conhecimentos e competências específicas, que permitam, uma adequada intervenção nas mais diversas situações. Desta forma, surgiu a necessidade e motivação para a realização de um Estágio. Este foi efetivado na Associação de Basquetebol da Madeira, doravante designada (ABM), com a duração de 420 horas que decorreu no período de 1 de novembro de 2013 a 4 de julho 2014. A principal área de intervenção foi o planeamento e organização de eventos desportivos, sob a égide da associação. Tivemos igualmente oportunidade de intervir nas áreas do marketing, da pedagogia e da gestão de recursos. O estágio proporcionou-nos ainda a realização de um estudo, com o desígnio de identificar as possíveis causas e fatores do decréscimo do número de praticantes da modalidade, verificado nas últimas épocas desportivas, recorrendo a uma metodologia de análise qualitativa. Esta consistiu em entrevistar quinze dirigentes com responsabilidades técnicas e diretivas no basquetebol da Madeira e na Federação Portuguesa de Basquetebol. As principais conclusões deste estudo apontou para: (i) a redução sistemática dos apoios públicos, que dificultou e muito o normal funcionamento, quer dos clubes, como das Associações, (ii) uma atitude passiva dos clubes no sentido de adotarem estratégias tendencialmente autossustentáveis. As medidas mais referidas para melhorar a modalidade, visam uma melhor e mais exigente formação de técnicos e dirigentes. Relativamente às perspetivas futuras sobre a modalidade a médio prazo, os resultados são díspares: (i) indicam o risco da falta de clubes suficientes para haver competição, (ii) outros perspetivam que será uma modalidade com um crescimento sustentado.

Gestão da cadeia de suprimento e vantagem competitiva: uma análise em setores industriais a partir da visão relacional

This work has as its main purpose to investigate the contribution of supply chain management in order to obtain competitive advantage by companies from the textile industry and from Ceará footwear industry, focusing its analysis mainly in the interorganizational relations (dyadic). For this, the theoretical referential contemplates different explanatory streams of the competitive advantage, detaching the relational perception of the resources theory, as well as, the main presuppositions of the supply chain management which culminates with the development of an analysis sample that runs the empirical study; the one which considers an expanded purpose of the supply chain which includes the government and the abetment institutions as institutional environment representatives. Besides supply chain management consideration as a competitive advantage source, the work also tried to identify other possible competitive advantage sources for the companies of the investigated sectors. It represents a study of multiple interpretive cases, having four cases as a total; meaning two cases in each one of the sectors, which used as a primary data collecting instrument a semi-structured interview schedule. Different methods were used for the data analysis, the content analysis and the constant comparison methods, the analytical procedure originated from the grounded theory research strategy, which were applied the Atlas/ti software recourse. Considering the theoretical referential and the used analysis sample, four basic categories of the work were defined, including its respective proprieties and dimensions: (1) characteristics concerning to the relationship with the supplier; (2) the company relations with the government; (3) the company relations with the abetment institutions and; (4) obtaining sources of competitive advantage. In general, the applied research in the footwear sector revealed that in the relationships of the researched companies related to its suppliers, there is a predominance of the partnership system and the main presuppositions of the supply chain management are applied which contributes for the acquisition of the relational competitive advantage; while in the textile sector, only some of these presuppositions are applied, with little contribution for the relational competitive advantage. The main resource which was accessed by the companies in both sectors through its relationships with the government and the abetment institutions are the tax incentives which, for the footwear companies, contribute for the acquisition of the temporary competitive advantage in relation to the contestants who do not own productive installations in the Northeast region, it also conducts to a competitive parity situation in relation to the contestants who own productive installations in the Northeast region and to the external market contestants; while for the companies of the textile sector, the tax incentives run the companies to a competitive parity situation in relation to its contestants. Furthermore, the investigated companies from the two sectors possess acquisition sources of the competitive advantage which collimate with different explanatory streams (industrial analysis, resources theory, Austrian school and the dynamic capabilities theory), although there is a predominance of the product innovation as a competitive advantage source in both sectors, due to the bond of these with the fashion tendencies

Construção das capacidades organizacionais de tecnologia da informação no contexto dos sistemas institucionais integrados de gestão da UFRN

The IT capability is a organizational ability to perform activities of this role more effectively and an important mechanism in creating value. Its building process (stages of creation and development) occurs through management initiatives for improvement in the performance of their activities, using human resources and IT assets complementary responsible for the evolution of their organizational routines. This research deals with the IT capabilities related to SIG (integrated institutional management systems), built and deployed in UFRN (Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte) to realization and control of administrative, academic and human resources activities. Since 2009, through cooperative agreements with federal and educational institutions of direct administration, UFRN has supported the implementation of these systems, currently involving more than 30 institutions. The present study aims to understand how IT capabilities, relevant in the design, implementation and dissemination of SIG, were built over time. This is a single case study of qualitative and longitudinal nature, performed by capturing, coding and analysis from secondary data and from semi-structured interviews conducted primarily with members of Superintenência de Informática, organizational unit responsible for SIG systems in UFRN. As a result, the technical, of internal relationship and external cooperation capabilities were identified as relevant in the successful trajectory of SIG systems, which have evolved in different ways. The technical capacity, initiated in 2004, toured the stages of creation and development until it reached the stage of stability in 2013, due to technological limits. Regarding the internal relationship capability, begun in 2006, it toured the stages of creation and development, having extended its scope of activities in 2009, being in development since then. Unlike the standard life cycle observed in the literature, the external cooperation capability was initiated by an intensity of initiatives and developments in the routines in 2009, which were decreasing to cease in 2013 in order to stabilize the technological infrastructure already created for cooperative institutions. It was still identified the start of cooperation in 2009 as an important event selection, responsible for changing or creating trajectories of evolution in all three capacities. The most frequent improvements initiatives were of organizational nature and the internal planning activity has been transformed over the routines of the three capabilities. Important resources and complementary assets have been identified as important for the realization of initiatives, such as human resources technical knowledge to the technical capabilities and external cooperation, and business knowledge, for all of them, as well as IT assets: the iproject application for control of development processes, and the document repository wiki. All these resources and complementary assets grew along the capacities, demonstrating its strategic value to SINFO/UFRN

Marketing de relacionamento em um provedor de internet: um estudo comparativo que considera a visão gerencial e a percepção dos clientes

The current paper aims at analyzing customer retention in Internet provider services. For this study, we sought to understand what are the client's expectations regarding the services available and compare them with management perception in relation to the use of those services. Identifying the coherence level between the two points of view, management and client, it is possible to pinpoint how service is assessed in real conditions. Then, from this point on, a new vision can be implemented on available services, and new customer service strategies aiming at best serving to their expectation and need, can be rethought. The exploratory research was utilized. It was based on case study, and quantitative and qualitative methods were used. The quantitative method was done by applying the cluster technique with six variables of control derived from the six main services, whose definition was done through qualitative survey of the internal management team. Then, an structured interview with 443 clients, from a probabilistic sample of 800 costumers. The total number of active clients of the internet provider is of 10.677. Client perception in relation to services varied, if compared with the four services that were under the managerial metric method, this comparison showed a more positive evaluation than the real use of the service. Thus, it was observed that the value of each service available for the client depends on his/her perception of it, regardless of using or not the offered service. As a result, it is possible to understand which services offered by the company under study effectively contribute to a good client-company relationship, and the upkeep of those clients

Was note that managers understand the importance of the participation about whole community in the democratic management, however only one school highlighted means of attracting the parents against to the difficulty of representing these. The lack of knowledge about the democratic management is evident mainly in the pair of schools with lower IDEB. That schools with a lower IDEB adhere to this management as a way to meet rules. So unanimous, the broad role of director hampers knowledge about the legislation. About relationship of the Government department with managers, there are some contradictions between the understanding of the role of the coordinator by managers and representatives of the Government department. It was perceptible the no uniformity about a good relationship between managers and Government department. It was notable features of democratic management in all school units, well as the efforts of the Government department in this scope. However there are also undemocratic features that deserve further study
