A relação entre aprendizagem organizacional e centros de excelência: um estudo no Brasil e nos Estados Unidos / The relationship between organizational learning and centers of excellence: a case study in an American company with subsidiary in Brazil

Larissa de Paiva Almeida 13 November 2018 (has links)
Este estudo visa analisar a relação entre Aprendizagem Organizacional (AO) e Centro de Excelência (CoE), através de um estudo de caso em uma multinacional do setor de Tecnologia da Informação nos Estados Unidos (matriz) e no Brasil (filial), para validar as seguintes hipóteses: a) AO afeta positivamente CoE; e b) a condição de matriz ou subsidiária afeta a relação entre a AO e CoE. Para a formação de um Centro de Excelência é fundamental ter uma estrutura de Aprendizagem Organizacional efetiva, que promova troca de competências que possam agregar valor para a empresa, e que possibilite que elas sejam compartilhadas entre as unidades da organização. Apesar da importância estratégica desses temas para alavancar a vantagem competitiva das empresas, ainda há poucos estudos na literatura acadêmica que os relacionam, havendo uma lacuna ainda maior quanto à metodologia quantitativa. Sendo assim, foi feito um estudo de caso quantitativo, com o uso de Survey, em que foram analisadas as respostas de 91 funcionários através de equações estruturais, usando o software SmartPLS. Os resultados evidenciam a influência positiva de Aprendizagem Organizacional em Centro de Excelência, sendo que há alguns subprocessos de AO que apresentaram uma alta significância nessa influência. Não foram encontradas evidências que confirmem a moderação da condição de matriz ou subsidiária nessa relação / This study aims to analyze the relationship between Organizational Learning (OL) and Center of Excellence (CoE), through a case study in an information technology multinational in the United States (headquarters) and in Brazil (subsidiary), to validate the following hypotheses: a) OL positively affects CoE; and b) the matrix or subsidiary condition affects the relationship between OL and CoE. In order to form a Center of Excellence, it is essential to have an effective Organizational Learning structure that promotes the exchange of competences that can add value to the company and that allow them to be shared among the units of the organization. Despite the strategic importance of these themes to leverage the competitive advantage of companies, there are still few studies in the academic literature that relate them, and there is an even larger gap regarding quantitative methodology. Thus, a quantitative case study was done using Survey, in which the responses of 91 employees were analyzed through structural equations using the SmartPLS software. The results evidenced the positive influence of Organizational Learning in a Center of Excellence, and there are some subprocesses of OL that presented a high significance in this influence. No evidence was found to confirm the moderation of the condition of matrix or subsidiary in this relation

[en] CENTERS OF EXCELLENCE ANALISYS AS BOTH ORGANIZATIONAL LEARNING AND LEARNING ORGANIZATION TOLL IN PETROBRAS / [pt] ANÁLISE DOS CENTROS DE EXCELÊNCIA COMO FERRAMENTA DE ORGANIZAÇÃO DE APRENDIZAGEM E APRENDIZAGEM ORGANIZACIONAL NA PETROBRAS

FELIPE TOKAR DUBUS 21 July 2008 (has links)
[pt] O ambiente atual, instável e competitivo, obriga as organizações a mudanças e adaptações constantes. Os estudos em redes, unindo recursos e conhecimentos, agregando potencial de crescimento e amadurecimento em determinado campo, são ferramentas de destaque nesse ambiente que requer gestão de informação eficiente e formação de base de conhecimento organizacional, constituída pela aprendizagem organizacional. O objetivo desta pesquisa é verificar a relação entre os conceitos de aprendizagem organizacional e organização de aprendizagem com a prática dos centros de excelência na Petrobras, empresa brasileira no setor de energia. Pretende-se entender se os centros de excelência visam, funcionando como ferramenta de aprendizagem organizacional, transformar -ou sustentar- a Petrobras como uma organização de aprendizagem. O método de pesquisa utilizado é o estudo de caso na Petrobras, com dados obtidos por meio de entrevistas semi-estruturadas e pesquisa documental. A análise de dados foi realizada de maneira descritiva-analítica, o que proporcionou uma visão dos valores e as relações existentes à luz dos referenciais da aprendizagem organizacional. Os resultados do presente estudo permitiram verificar a ligação entre esses conceitos, relacionando, portanto, esses centros às questões requeridas pelas organizações de aprendizagem e aprendizagem organizacional. Contudo, foi observado que não há o mesmo foco de aprendizado em assuntos corporativos, como acontece em temas técnicos e tecnológicos. Esta lacuna é um motivo de preocupação, visto que o intuito é de envolver todos os setores da organização, resultando na sugestão de aumentar a abrangência de implantação. / [en] The current environment, unstable and competitive, forcing the organizations to constant changes and adaptations. The network studies, linking resources and expertise, aggregate growth potential and maturity in a particular field, are highlighted tools in this environment what requires efficient information management and also organizational knowledge formation basis, made up through organizational learning. This survey aims at investigate the relation between the learning organization concept as well as the organizational learning concept with the Centers of Excellence practice in Petrobras, a Brazilian national company in the energy sector. It intend to understand whether the centers of excellence aim at, working as an organizational learning tool, turn into or keep up Petrobras as a learning organization. The research method used is the case study in Petrobras, with the recorded data gathered by means of semi-structured interviews and documental survey. The data analysis was performed in a descriptive-analitical way, which leads to a view of values and the relation present in view of the organization learning referentials. The outcomes of this current study disclosed and allowed to come to the conclusion that there is a linkage between these concepts, relating, therefore, these centers to the required issues by learning organizations and organizational learning. Nevertheless, it was realized that the focus on learning is not the same concerning on corporate issues, as it happens with technical and technological subjects. This gap is a cause for concern about, since the idea of such concepts is to involve all organization sectors, resulting on the criticism and suggestion of increasing the scope of deployment.

A comparative study on scientific approaches for Center of Excellence in TVET sector under the scientific aspect of the demands in Thai Education System

Ode-sri, Adisorn 20 November 2020 (has links)
This research offers an essential enlightenment for a better understanding towards the significance to establish the Center of Excellence for Technical Vocational Education and Training (CoE for TVET), especially in vocational education. It analyzes and synthesizes the data from the existing academic and commercial sources based on the fact that, in most cases, “excellence” is referred to as a foundation term for competitions. Many entities being recognized as or perceived by target audiences in business conduct as “excellent”, are generally “abstract”. In practice, there are only a few entities actually worthy of a true “excellence” judging by appropriate criteria—having “concrete” evidence of activities and components. Exemplifying an existing Center of Excellence would promote a better understanding both in terms of definition and its characteristics. The researcher focuses on conducting comparative research that combines with qualitative and case studies, with an important goal of acquiring 'new definition, new knowledge and specialized practical guidelines related to the CoE for TVET', and to invent a set of practices that will lead to answering of these key questions: • What is 'CoE for TVET'? How many types are they of ? • How is it currently recognized for the 'CoE in TVET' ? • What approaches should be taken to promote a better understanding of definitions, classification, and operations of “a COE in TVET?” This is to provide in-depth research that can be beneficial to the public and visualized clearly worldwide. As per the mentioned aims, comparative case studies between different countries are required. There are neither much studies in the world which clearly proposed the definition; the identification and the demonstration of the applied practical guidelines nor in the dimension of excellence of TVET education management because all that exists are the context of excellence in business and nor in education sector that are often referred particularly to the level of Higher Education and that the basic education cannot be applied to TVET because of its being of different context. In each topic, the researcher clarified points of information including the perception, access, and maintenance of excellence. There shall be further discussion on the classification of all globally existing centers of excellence which is based on perception, presentation, and public understanding in conclusion. Once the foregoing section has been thoroughly accomplished, the next step is accessing the process and techniques of pursuing elements and characteristics that CoE in TVET at least should have by relying on techniques and principles called “Benchmarking+USP” that the researcher has developed recently based on the understanding that 'Apart from being superior to general standard and quality, that is, - no ordinary - ; having a status of excellence, the center of excellence, no matter operating or providing services in any regards, must have a unique identity and distinctiveness that should be as close as possible to -the top-notch – in that particular area.' To be an example case, the researcher had selected the 'Benching Partner' which is recognized for achieving excellence in service providing and educational management in the field of TVET: GTDEE and TGPES, as the answer of the research items that say: • How will there be techniques or processes in the pursuit of components, attributes that indicate the status of excellence of TVET CoE? • Are there any examples of centers of excellence or comparable organizations existing in Thailand? And how do those organizations have the required elements and characteristics of excellence? The final essence, therefore, is studying and striving for the needs in various dimensions regarding the establishment of the Center of excellence in TVET that is able to response to the demands of society for teaching and learning management of the Thai vocational education sector in the points of view of the sample groups --the direct stakeholders--, thus leading to answering the question in the endmost part of the research, that is: In what dimension does Thailand need TVET Center of Excellence? These will be beneficial suggestion to the relevant sectors in Thailand or those wishing to learn, study extensively on the basis of substantial findings delivered by this research.:Tabel of contents Abstract ii Acknowledgements iv Dedication vi Table of contents vii List of Figures xi List of Tables xii List of Abbreviations xiii Chapter 1: Introduction 1 1.1 Background and Importance 1 1.2 Definition of Excellence 1 1.3 Thailand's vocational education policies in the direction of excellence development 6 1.4 Research Question 11 1.5 Hypotheses 12 1.6 Purpose of research 13 1.7 Method and Scope of the Research 14 Chapter 2: Quality - Matters behind the scenes of excellence for vocational education 16 2.1 Definition and dimension of quality in the VET sector 16 2.2 “Quality” an impact factor of excellence in VET 19 2.3 Quality approaches: Strategies to improve excellence status 23 2.3.1 The Juran Quality Trilogy: Basic architect of Quality Management 24 2.3.2 Approaches to quality and quality objectives 25 Chapter 3: Centre of Vocational Excellence (CoVE) 32 3.1 How to understand the characteristics and definition of “CoVE” ? 32 3.2 Classic Excellence Approaches 36 3.3 Modern Excellence Approach and Education: EFQM – MBNQ 39 3.4 SEM &TVET Excellence Journey: The Singapore Experience 41 3.4.1 EFQM- MBNQA: The Foundation of the School Excellence Model 41 3.4.2 TVET Excellence Journey 43 Chapter 4: Conceptual Innovation: The Basic Approach to Establishing TVET-CoE Using Benchmarking+UPS 49 4.1 Level Analysis - Policy Examining: First Things to be Aware and Considered 50 4.2 Benchmarking: Learn from other sources, seek Best Practices, and adapt for excellence 53 4.2.1 Popularity and Definition 53 4.2.2 Type and scope 56 4.2.3 The benchmarking process: The Xerox way 57 4.3 Innovative concept: Establising TVET CoE based on excellence using Benchmarking+USP 61 4.3.1 Benchmarking and Vocational Development 61 4.3.2 Input, process and output/outcome: Benchmarking indicators 62 4.3.3 Outputs, outcomes and impacts: “The results chain in modern system” 64 4.3.4 Combining UPS and Benchmarking for TVET CoE under Blue Ocean 67 Chapter 5: Comparative case studies via adaptation of benchmarking technique to identify excellence based on scientific approach 70 5.1 Introduction: Principles of Case Studies Consideration 70 5.2 Analysis: Dual system, a new issue in Thailand - Why GTDEE? 72 5.2.1 Agricultural era and the advent of “Dual system” 72 5.2.2 Factory in school: Utilizing as a makeshift until deep-rooted and falling off from the ideal 74 5.2.3 Subsequent problems of practice that falls off the frame 75 5.2.4 What GTDEE show? - Pull the consciousness of the Thai vocational to look at the original “Dual system” 77 5.3 The application of Benchmarking+USP techniques to pursue unique excellence between GTDEE and TGPES 81 5.3.1 Scope and Basic norms of conducting the study 81 5.3.2 Enter the process of Benchmarking+USP 82 Chapter 6: Benchmarking+USP results conducted through information and views from executives of Benching Partner 91 6.1 Preliminary data and comments of Benching Partner about “TVET Excellence” 91 6.1.1 Personal information of the representatives of Benching Partner 91 6.1.2 Basic understanding of Excellence and Centres of Excellence 92 6.1.3 Awareness, experience, perspective and understanding of CoE for TVET 93 6.1.4 Suggestions and others 95 6.2 Results of exercising Benchmarking+USP based on the designed templates 96 6.3 SWOT analysis: a summary of the results of Benchmarking+USP to pursue excellence 105 6.3.1 Strengths 105 6.3.2 Opportunities 107 6.3.3 Weaknesses 108 6.3.4 Threats 109 Chapter 7: Understanding and demands for the CoE for TVET in Thailand: A case study from a sample group of 102 stakeholders 113 7.1 Introduction 113 7.2 The statistics used in the research and testing of the hypothesis 115 7.3 Personal information and basic information 116 7.4 Basic understanding of Excellence and Centres of Excellence 119 7.5 Awareness, experience, perspective and understanding of CoE for TVET 127 7.6 Suggestions and others 132 Chapter 8: Summary of body of knowledge and Suggestions 137 8.1 Understanding Excellence, CoE and CoE in TVET 137 8.1.1 Definition of excellence and CoE 137 8.1.2 SEM &TVET Excellence Journey: The Singapore Experience 139 8.2 Classification of definition by type and characteristics of “CoE for TVET” 140 8.3 Utilization Techniques and Guidelines for Benchmarking+USP within BOS in Identifying Distinct Excellence for CoEs in TVET 142 8.4 Examples of characteristics of excellence of the TVET CoE in Thailand 145 8.5.1 Factors making contribution to enhance journey toward organizational excellence 146 8.5.2 Perspectives on the mission of CoF for TVET 147 8.5.3 Demand for CoE of TVET in Thailand based-on the opinions of the sample groups 148 References 150 Internet sources 158 Appendix I: Benchmarking+USP templates 159 Appendix II: Questionnaire 176

Processarbete inom den offentliga sektorn : En kvalitativ studie om implementationen av ett processtöd på en statlig myndighet

Jensen, Linn, Lundström, Ludvig January 2019 (has links)
The County Administrative Board of Västerbotten is a complex organisation with ties to both the nearby municipal offices and the Swedish government. The government put high demands on the County Administrative Boards in the country when it comes to the time of processing different cases. During October 2017, a suggestion was submitted to the parliament considering the Boards’ processing times of cases being too long and sporadic, where they proposed that continuous work regarding effectivity in their work processes would help reduce the time and irregularity. The County Administrative Board of Västerbotten, with the help of the Bitstream project, decided to implement a new unit, a type of Project Management Office (PMO), in 2018 which was tasked to offer support and tools for the other units’ work processes. Bitstream is a Swedish-Norwegian project, which includes a collaboration between Umeå University, as well as several municipalities in northern Sweden, with the purpose of creating innovations in business modelling within the public sector. The unit, called process support, contains six employees whom originated from the unit for regional growth, and their task is to help the Boards’ units determine their processes during cases to resolve which sub processes are not time efficient. They also help identify the processes that are valuable for the client, which processes are necessary but does not create value, as well as those that do neither. While the implementation and the results of the process support have been fairly successful, the enforcement of the unit proved to be ineffectual, with several complications occurring. This study aims to research the best possible prerequisites to productively implement and administer a Project Management Office in the public sector. Due to most research on PMOs being focused on businesses and not state organisations, the need for such a study is present. Through interviews with five of the County Administrative Board of Västerbotten’s employees, documents from the Board and Bitstream project, and related research on PMO, we display several proposals of change the Board should apply as well as the prerequisites needed to effectively implement and administer a PMO in a state organisation.

Proposição de um Escritório de Processos em uma Instituição de Ensino Superior / Proposition of a BPM Center of Excellence in a public Higher Education institution

Santos, Sarah de Oliveira Silva dos 25 June 2014 (has links)
Existe uma tendência entre as organizações por optarem pela abordagem de gestão por processos no lugar da abordagem funcional tradicional, porém a falta de integração dos projetos de gestão por processos leva a desperdícios de recursos e diminuição no retorno sobre o investimento. Os Escritórios de Processos podem ser uma proposta de resposta à falta de integração dos projetos de gestão por processos. Em contrapartida, as Instituições de Ensino Superior (IES) necessitam ampliar sua eficácia gerencial e a gestão por processos pode ser uma solução. A oportunidade de investigação relacionando os temas levou a seguinte pergunta de pesquisa: \"O que propor em um Escritório de Processos para uma Instituição de Ensino Superior?\". Para responder a essa pergunta o objetivo geral deste trabalho era propor um Escritório de Processos em uma Instituição de Ensino Superior. Para alcançar o objetivo principal, foram traçados dois objetivos específicos: desenvolver um framework para propor um Escritório de Processos e desenvolver uma proposta de um Escritório de Processos em uma IES. Para atender a estes objetivos, este trabalho combina a utilização de duas abordagens metodológicas: revisão bibliográfica e estudo de casos. Como resultados da pesquisa foram desenvolvidos o framework para propor um Escritório de Processos e a proposta do Escritório de Processos para um IES. A pesquisa contribuiu para o estado da arte sobre o assunto Escritório de Processos. A proposta do Escritório de Processos e framework foram inovadores do ponto de vista bibliográfico, uma vez que trouxeram um modelo de Escritório de Processos que a literatura não aborda. Esse estudo auxiliou à referida IES a iniciar a constituição de seu Escritório de Processos. Dentre os interessados no estudo, destacam-se IESs, organizações de um modo geral, responsáveis por processos de negócios, pesquisadores e consultores. / There is a tendency among organizations opt for a Business Process Management approach instead of the traditional functional approach. BPM Center of Excellence can be a proposed answer to the lack of integration of process management projects. In contrast, the Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) need to broaden their managerial effectiveness and process management can be a solution. The opportunity to research relating the themes led to the following research question: \" What proposing in a BPM Center of Excellence for an Institution of Higher Education ? \" . To answer this question the overall goal of this work was to propose an BPM Center of Excellence in a Higher Education Institution. To achieve the main objective, two specific objectives were set: to develop a framework to propose a Process Office and develop a proposal for an Center of Excellence in an HEI. To meet these objectives, this paper combines the use of two methodological approaches: literature review and case studies. The results of the research framework were developed to propose a BPM Center of Excellence and the proposal of the Office of Proceedings for IES. The research contributed to the state of the art on the subject BPM Center of Excellence. The proposal of the Office and framework were innovative from the point of view of literature as it brought a model of a BPM Center of Excellence that literature does not address. This study helped to said HEIs to start setting up BPM Center of Excellence.
