This study aims to achieve an approximation between the theory of French professional insertion and the Brazilian youth. The central points of analysis are life, study and work, since the French professional insertion considers the individual, institutional and socio-historical aspects of a social group, being extended to different social contexts. The narrowing of this theory with the Brazilian youth is evidenced by the scenario formed by highly qualified young people and great difficulties of insertion in the market with attention to the cases of unemployment and the provision of precarious working relations something similar to what has been happening with young people Brazilians in recent years, despite the expansion of higher education (considering the influence of public access policies and higher education funding programs).

As perspectivas teoricas no campo de estudos sobre a lideranca tem se concentrado em discutir como lideres devem ser e agir para mobilizar realizacoes coletivas. No entanto, na pratica, muitos individuos carecem desses atributos e, dadas suas limitacoes e vicios, alguns sequer deveriam estar em posicoes de lideranca. A pesquisa sobre a origem, ascensao e impactos das liderancas toxicas nas empresas e ainda incipiente, particularmente no Brasil. Contribuindo para a compreensao desse fenomeno, esta pesquisa investigou a ma lideranca no ambiente corporativo brasileiro, a partir das experiencias vivenciadas por 35 profissionais de diferentes setores e areas de atuacao. Com base nesses relatos e na aplicacao da analise de conteudo, foram derivados seis tipos de maus lideres: incompetente, omisso, inconsistente, rigido, abusivo e desleal.

Since 2010 around half a million immigrants entered Brazil. This paper aims to describe their experience facing the Portuguese language barrier in the Brazilian labor market. Language here is understood as spoken, written and body language. The South-to-South approach here proposed differs from most of the literature, based mainly on studies South-to-North oriented. During six field visits the research group observed the arrival in Brazil, the hiring process and the experience of 34 immigrants from Haiti, Bolivia, Venezuela, Angola, Nigeria, Togo, Iraq and Yemen working within ten Brazilian firms that hired them. Besides the observation technique, these immigrants, social workers, employers and Brazilian co-workers were interviewed. The employers emphasized the immigrants` enthusiasm, willingness to learn and dedication to work. The immigrants said they were well received and emphasized the use of Google Translator, mimicry and drawings to communicate. The employers said they used these same creative ways to teach the work activities to the immigrants as well as placing the immigrant next to another Brazilian worker who performed the same set of tasks so that the immigrant would learn by looking. Few complaints about lack of patience of Brazilian co-workers and lack of dedication of the immigrants to learn Portuguese were registered.

O estudo realizado tem como objetivo identificar como as Fintechs se caracterizam como oportunidades e ameacas para as grandes instituicoes financeiras no Brasil. A fim de compreender e analisar os aspectos relacionados as Fintechs, a pesquisa aborda topicos alinhados ao tema, como o contexto atual da economia, o Sistema Financeiro Nacional e o cenario de startups no Brasil. Este estudo possui carater descritivo e qualitativo, no qual os dados foram coletados a partir da realizacao de entrevistas com os responsaveis por instituicoes financeiras. A pesquisa permitiu identificar que ha a aceitacao por parte das grandes instituicoes para aplicacao desse modelo de Fintechs. Observou-se tambem que ha uma necessidade de regulamentacao do setor para que o mesmo possa crescer com mais liberdade e assim podendo acrescentar ao pais essa riqueza tecnologica, porem, analisa a necessidade de ser menos burocratico como as instituicoes financeiras atuantes no mercado. O estudo apresentou como limitacoes a apresentacao de poucos casos, em que nao foi possivel entrevistar mais gerentes em outras empresas que estao envolvidas de alguma forma com as inovacoes da organizacao. A partir desta situacao, sugere-se que outros estudos sejam realizados para cobrir outros pontos interessantes que digam respeito ao modelo de negocio Fintechs. O estudo permitiu compreender como as grandes empresas ja estabelecidas no mercado financeiro identificam as Fintechs e seus modelos de negocios. A identificacao de oportunidades e de ameacas e como se da esse entendimento permitindo que as Fintechs se preparem para um mercado competitivo e que grandes empresas entendam como este modelo pode ser caracterizado como aliado. Em relacao a originalidade, varios estudos foram desenvolvidos no âmbito do mercado financeiro. No entanto, ao pesquisar em bases de dados cientificas, o assunto sobre Fintechs e pouco explorado assim como a percepcao de seu modelo de negocios por outros players do setor.

The purpose of this study was to integrate citizen perceived value into an expectation-confirmation model (ECM) to explain their intention to use e-government services. Integrated models were shown through empirical data, after reviewing ECM and citizen perceived values. The findings of this study indicated that ECM integrated with citizen perceived value tends to provide a concerted solution to clarify the factors and its influence on citizens' intention to use e-government services. This study used online survey of 632 e-government experienced participants with the structural equation modelling approach to test the research model.

This paper identifies the factors that determine users' adoption of e-government services in the Republic of Macedonia. The research model, defines several constructs (perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, compatibility, interpersonal influence, external influence, self-efficacy, facilitating conditions, attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavioural control, demographic factors) that can influence intention to use e-government services. Relationships between constructs proved to be significant after analysis of the survey results, but the strength of influence toward intention to usage varies among constructs. Attitude towards usage is strongly and significantly influenced by the perceived usefulness and less by perceived ease of use of the e-government applications as well as by compatibility with the way of work. Subjective norms are significantly affected by interpersonal influence, and by external influence, as well. Self-efficacy is significantly influencing control over usage of e-government applications, while perceived behavioural control was not significant for our sample.

Forecasting physical achievements of welfare and developmental schemes offered by government is always a challenging assignment. Studies undertaken to address this problem using data mining techniques are not fully efficient when the number of features is more than that of samples. This paper presents a novel hybrid machine learning model based on support vector regression, which exhibits magnificent generalisation capability on small samples with proper selection of hyper-parameters using teaching-learning-based optimisation along with elastic net for feature selection. For predicting achievement, a dataset pertaining to housing scheme of Government of India is used where number of samples available is small. It is observed that the proposed hybrid model EN-TLBO-SVR has not only outperformed the use of particle swarm optimisation for hyper-parameter selection, but also kernel principal component analysis and sequential forward floating selection for dimensionality reduction with an additional advantage of identifying significant features present in the samples.
