The relevance and impact of universities causes frequent debate in the international context. Every congress and seminar has a panel to analyze evaluation indicators. The question that arises is: do we impact society? In 2017, the University of Sao Paulo (USP) implemented changes in its evaluation of units and lecturers. A Permanent Evaluation Committee (PEC) was created, with representatives of USP lecturers in the areas of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences, along with representatives from the Biological and Health Sciences, and representatives from the Exact and Technological Sciences.

In recent years, the number of studies applying Social Network Analysis to the formation of inter-organizational networks has increased. This paper analyzed a socio-centric network composed of 32 cultural organizations in Andalusia to measure this increase. Multiple Regression Quadratic Assignment Procedure (MR-QAP) at the dyadic level, showed that perceptions of affinity (i.e., homophily) and the possibility of establishing contacts in the future, can exert influence on the establishment of informal contacts. At the internal level, an organization’s brokerage position in collaboration project networks is related to the volume of business and the old in the sector. Finally, this article discusses applications for the management of inter-organizational networks in order to strengthen the implementation of public policies.

This article aims to propose a process-based modelling of the Information Systems resistance phenomenon. Accordingly, we wrote a literature review to categorize the main points set forth by the extant scientific texts relating to the process taxonomy: input, output, players, and the resistance phenomenon. Based on the modelling, this article provides theoretical implications in terms of improving the understanding of the phenomenon among academicians as well as practical and managerial suggestions related to its mitigation.

Finance literature documents associations between a family’s financial literacy and its propensity to borrow. However, most studies focus exclusively on formal loan markets. Based on 2,023 observations about financial behavior of Brazilian families, we examined the impacts of financial literacy on informal borrowing, such as loans from friends or moneylenders. Using multinomial logit models, we compared financial literacy’s effects on the propensity to take informal loans between families that did not borrow at all and those who took bank loans. Financial literacy is measured by the investment in capitalization bonds, a financial instrument in the Brazilian market. The results suggest that financial literacy’s relevance to informal loans may exceed that for formal credit channels.

The reestablishment of the world’s economic center to Asia (China was the world’s largest economy until around 1870) has many positives. In addition to lifting hundreds of millions of people out of poverty in China and the neighboring region, growth in Asia helped mitigate the effects of the global financial crisis in 2008. Today, China and India are key drivers of the global economy with over a hundred countries listing the middle kingdom as their most important trading partner. Along with the economic revival in Asia, unprecedented global interconnectedness has also raised the level of risk exposure to virtually all businesses around the world. One example is North Korea: while an unpredictable hermit kingdom on the other side of the world would hardly have concerned Brazil’s Embraer and Vale in the early 1990s, Kim Jong Un’s current nuclear overture could have the potential to create geopolitical instability in North-east Asia, including China, an essential market to both companies. Country risk, which analyzes risk when conducting business across borders, also seems to be on the rise in developed countries. The rise of xenophobia and nationalist politics in Europe, Brexit, and the possibility of Donald Trump winning the U.S. presidential election all represent potential and important risks for investors in the global economy. Larry Summers recently wrote,
亚洲重新成为世界经济中心(直到1870年左右,中国一直是世界上最大的经济体)有许多积极因素。除了使中国及其周边地区数亿人摆脱贫困之外,亚洲的增长还帮助缓解了2008年全球金融危机的影响。今天,中国和印度是世界经济的主要推动力,一百多个国家将中国列为其最重要的贸易伙伴。随着亚洲经济的复苏,前所未有的全球互联也提高了全球几乎所有企业的风险敞口水平。一个例子是朝鲜:在上世纪90年代初,世界另一端的一个不可预测的隐士王国几乎不会让巴西航空工业公司(Embraer)和淡水河谷(Vale)感到担忧,但金正恩(Kim Jong Un)目前的核示好,可能会在东北亚(包括中国)造成地缘政治不稳定,中国是这两家公司的重要市场。在发达国家,分析跨国经营风险的国别风险似乎也在上升。欧洲排外主义和民族主义政治的兴起、英国脱欧以及唐纳德·特朗普赢得美国总统大选的可能性,都是全球经济投资者面临的潜在和重要风险。拉里·萨默斯最近写道,

Para abordar este problema, recurrimos a un estudio demografico de un centro de control ferroviario co-locado en el que se localizan bajo el mismo techo los transportadores de las mayores organizaciones ferroviarias holandesas. Aunque la intencion de la co-locacion era mejorar la colaboracion al acercar a diferentes organizaciones, nuestras conclusiones cuentan una historia diferente.

En este estudio, planteamos que las tentativas de comprender la relacion entre co-locacion y colaboracion no deberia concentrarse solamente en como dichos espacios son disenados y planificados, sino en explicar como dichos espacios donde se demanda colaboracion son experimentados y usados por los empleados. EnglishThis paper studies the design of co-located spaces and how organizational actors experience such spaces. The literature on co-location is ambiguous about how reduced physical distance increases collaboration. To address this problem, we draw on an ethnographic study of a co-located railway control center, housing the largest Dutch railway organizations under one roof. Although the intention of the co-location was to improve collaboration by bringing different organizations into closer proximity, our findings tell a different story. Railway employees developed several territorial practices (preserving existing boundaries, creating new boundaries, and the situational use of boundaries) through which they resisted the design of the control center, thereby changing the control center from co-located to “dis-located.” We argue that understanding the relationship between co-location and collaboration should not only focus on how such spaces are designed but, rather, account for how spaces where collaboration is demanded are experienced and used by employees. portuguesEste artigo estuda o desenho de espacos co-localizados e como os atores organizacionais experimentam esses espacos.

本文研究了共享空间的设计,以及组织参与者如何体验这些空间。到目前为止,关于共享建筑的文献对于减少物理距离如何导致更大的合作努力是模糊的。为了解决这个问题,我们对一个位于同一地点的铁路控制中心进行了人口统计学研究,荷兰最大的铁路组织的搬运工都在同一屋檐下。虽然共同选址的目的是通过将不同的组织聚集在一起来改善合作,但我们的发现讲述了一个不同的故事。铁路员工发展了一些地区性的做法,通过这些做法抵制设计,将控制中心从共享位置转移到“搬迁”位置。在本研究中,我们提出理解共享空间和协作之间关系的尝试不应该只关注这些空间是如何设计和规划的,而应该解释这些需要协作的空间是如何被员工体验和使用的。这篇论文研究了共享空间的设计,以及组织参与者如何体验这种空间。文献》co-location is ambiguous about how比如physical distance gains协作。为了解决这个问题,我们对一个位于同一地点的铁路控制中心进行了一项民族志研究,该中心将荷兰最大的铁路组织合并在一起。虽然共同定位的目的是通过使不同的组织更紧密地联系在一起来改善合作,但我们的发现说明了一个不同的故事。铁路雇员制定了若干地域性做法(保留现有边界、创建新的边界和实际使用边界),通过这些做法,他们抵制控制中心的设计,从而将控制中心从位于同一地点改为“不位于同一地点”。我们认为,了解共同位置与协作之间的关系,不应只关注如何设计这种空间,而应考虑员工如何体验和使用需要协作的空间。本文研究了共位空间的设计,以及组织行动者如何体验这些空间。关于共位建筑的文献在解释物理距离的减少如何以及是否会导致更大的合作努力方面是模棱两可的。为了解决这个问题,我们对一个位于同一地点的铁路控制中心进行了人种学研究,荷兰最大的铁路组织都位于同一屋檐下。虽然共同本地化的目的是通过将不同的组织聚集在一起来改善协作,但我们的结果讲述了一个不同的故事。铁路工人发展了一些领土实践,通过这些实践,他们抵制了这个项目,创造了一个“非租赁”而不是共同租赁的控制中心空间。我们在这篇文章中认为,试图理解共存和协作之间的关系不应该仅仅关注这些组织空间是如何设计和规划的,相反,应该解释这些需要协作的空间是如何被其员工体验和实践的。

After summarizing key tenets of the materiality turn and the history of a workshop focused on it (the Organizations, Artifacts & Practices workshop), the article describes avenues for further research about sociomateriality and materiality grounded into societal dimensions and more political directions. It stresses in particular Latin American traditions which could be helpful to extend the debates.

This study aims to understand how institutional pressures and managers’ environmental beliefs influence the adoption of Green Information Technology (Green IT). The theoretical framework of the Belief-Action-Outcome model is used. In a qualitative research approach, data on 10 university IT managers were collected through interviews and a checklist of Green IT practices. Content analysis on the interviews was performed and the responses to the checklist were analyzed by frequency. Analysis results show that the institutional pressure most related to the adoption of Green IT for the interviewees is mimetic. Regarding environmental beliefs, while eight managers expressed concerns about environmental issues, only three reported their own initiatives. Other respondents said they faced barriers such as bureaucratic dysfunctions and lack of management support to propose actions related to Green IT.

The distinctive features of family firms, such as family influence, add complexity to organizational life-cycle models in terms of the different stages of development. This research analyzes the relationship between stages of the organizational life cycle proposed by Lester et al. (2003) and the elements of influence of the F-PEC family (power, experience, and culture). The study was developed through a sample of 117 Brazilian family companies, without the participation of companies with shares traded on the stock exchange, and employed statistical treatment of the data through a structural equation model. As a result, the elements of F-PEC were partially identified in the sample. Power indicates the control of the company by the family, experience indicates the role of the different generations, and culture indicates the values of the controllers. In particular, it should be pointed out that, at birth, power and culture play important roles; in maturity, experience and culture stand out, and in rejuvenation, power and culture have been identified as characteristic. As an exploratory analysis, the article contributes to the understanding of organizations, by indicating the development of comparative analyses and performance on the variables that provide migration planning to more desirable stages, such as growth, maturity, and rejuvenation.
家族企业的独特特征,如家族影响力,增加了组织生命周期模型在不同发展阶段的复杂性。本研究分析了Lester et al.(2003)提出的组织生命周期阶段与F-PEC家族的影响要素(权力、经验和文化)之间的关系。本研究以117家巴西家族企业为样本,没有股票在证券交易所交易的公司参与,并通过结构方程模型对数据进行统计处理。结果,F-PEC的元素在样品中被部分识别。权力表示家族对公司的控制,经验表示不同世代的角色,文化表示控制者的价值观。尤其应该指出的是,在出生时,权力和文化起着重要的作用;在成熟中,经验和文化是突出的,在复兴中,权力和文化被确定为特征。作为一种探索性分析,本文通过指出对变量的比较分析和性能的发展,从而有助于对组织的理解,这些变量为更理想的阶段(如成长、成熟和恢复)提供迁移计划。

As a result, the elements of F-PEC were partially identified in the sample. Power indicates the control of the company by the family, experience indicates the role of the different generations, and culture indicates the values of the controllers. In particular, it should be pointed out that, at birth, power and culture play important roles; in maturity, experience and culture stand out, and in rejuvenation, power and culture have been identified as characteristic. As an exploratory analysis, the article contributes to the understanding of organizations, by indicating the development of comparative analyses and performance on the variables that provide migration planning to more desirable stages, such as growth, maturity, and rejuvenation.","PeriodicalId":46558,"journal":{"name":"Rae-Revista De Administracao De Empresas","volume":"19 1","pages":"601-619"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2017-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81848117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
