Tesis para optar al grado de Magíster en Control de Gestión / Autor autoriza el acceso a texto completo de su documento a partir del 2020 (Octubre) / El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo entregar una propuesta de un sistema de control de gestión para Los Héroes CCAF, hasta la fecha la organización se ha administrado con un sistema de control presupuestario, lo que le permitía funcionar de buena manera hasta el año 2010, fecha en que tanto la organización como la industria en la que se encuentra inserta cambian drásticamente como se verá a continuación, se ahí la necesidad de cambiar a un sistema de control de gestión. Los Héroes CCAF, es una organización sin fines de lucro que nace en 1955 por iniciativa de la Asociación de Industrias Metalúrgicas y Metalmecánicas (Asimet) con la finalidad de administrar el beneficio otorgado por el estado para fomentar el crecimiento de la familia, la asignación familiar, cerca de 20 años después, en 1978 a través del decreto 911, el estado le permite otorgar créditos sociales a los afiliados, este suceso es crucial ya que gatilla el crecimiento de la organización de la mano de crecimiento exponenciales en los ingresos. La entrada en el negocio de la colocación de crédito social genera que la organización crezca pasando de 20 empresas y 6.000 afiliados en sus orígenes a 62 sucursales, 7.133 empresas adheridas, 993.070 afiliados y 1.165 colaboradores en el 2010. Ese mismo años, Los Héroes marca un hito relevante dentro de su historia al adjudicarse la licitación para el pago de pensiones del Instituto de Previsión Social (IPS) lo que le significa aumentar a 229 sucursales, a 1.724 colaboradores, 1.511 puntos de pagos rurales, realizar 2.300.000 pagos presenciales mensuales, pero le significa disminuir a 5.551 empresas adheridas y 941.070 afiliados, sin embargo se mantiene como líder indiscutido dentro del segmento pensionado. Adicionalmente, la industria de las cajas de compensación ve como el ente regulador implementa una serie de restricciones al crédito social disminuyendo los plazos máximos de colocación en meses y disminuyendo los topes como % de la renta o pensión mensual a las cuotas. En resumen, el escenario cambia drásticamente lo que obliga a realizar un cambio en la menara como se controla la organización para poder cumplir con los objetivos que se plantearon en la planificación estratégica.

Como auxílio para esta compreensão e análise, utilizou-se de instrumentos da Antropologia, com base em referenciais da etnografia, entre eles a entrevista intensiva e a análise de documentos. Foram entrevistadas onze (11) pessoas que compõem o cenário futebolístico, sendo nove jogadores profissionais e dois ex-jogadores profissionais. O referencial teórico foi traçado de modo a compreender a importância do futebol na vida do brasileiro, da sua chegada como uma atividade de lazer e como rapidamente transformou-se em um ¿habitus¿ local. Entendendo o futebol como um jogo absorvente, procurou-se definir mito e imaginário para entender algumas questões recorrentes ao futebol brasileiro. As questões discutidas foram: a figura de Charles Miller como o introdutor do futebol no Brasil, o ópio do povo, futebol como identidade nacional, o dom no futebol, o debate sobre o estilo de jogo, conhecido como futebol-arte e futebol-força, e as questões relativas ao sonho de ser jogador profissional (início, tentativa e concretização do sonho). Todos os tópicos são apresentados como um suporte para a discussão central da dissertação, sendo que mito e imaginário servem de base para a investigação sobre os ídolos e heróis no futebol, a importância deles no processo, as diferenças conceituais e a influência dessas figuras na construção do sonho de ser jogador profissional / Abstract: This study tries to delineate a broad view of the idol and hero importance and complexity in football, in order to comprehend its influence of transforming childhood dreams in profession. For its understanding and analysis, we used anthropology instruments based on ethnography referential, which were the intensive interview and the document analysis. Eleven (11) people who compose the football view were interviewed, nine professional players and two ex professional players. The theoretical referential sought to understand the football importance in Brazilian lives, from its arrival as a leisure activity, until it became a local ¿habitus¿. Considering football as an absorbent game, we tried to define myth and imaginary to comprehend the several questions about Brazilian football. The discussed issues were: the Charles Miller character as the football introducer in Brazil, the people¿s opium, football as a national identity, the gift in football, the debate about game style, known as art football and strength football, and the matters related to the dream of being a professional player (beginning, attempt, and dream coming true). All the topics are presented as a support for the central discussion of the study, considering myth and imaginary as the basis for this investigation about idols and heroes in Brazilian football, their importance in the process, the conceptual differences and the influences of these characters on the creation of the dream of being a professional player / Mestrado / Educação Fisica e Sociedade / Mestre em Educação Física

This thesis examines and argues that superhero narratives, beginning with their comic book origins in the early twentieth century, exhibit many of the qualities found in folklore. Furthermore, these narratives not only demonstrate a folkloric evolution across multi-media formats, including printed work, television, and film, but that they fit within classic hero narrative structures posited by various folklore theorists. The hero theories presented by Lord Raglan, Vladimir Propp, and Joseph Campbell, along with traditional folklore patterns of dynamism and conservatism discussed by Barre Toelken, Alan Dundes, and others, support the assertion that folklore can, and does, exist and propagate in the mass media popular culture sphere. What follows is an academic analysis of core folklore elements, as well as a presentation of how these core qualities can be found in superhero narratives, and how the discipline of folklore may benefit from a study of these narratives.

The phenomenon of modern fantasy is the result of a tradition that originated with romance. It is a tradition that has experienced continual redefinement and utilization over the years. This is evidenced by the rediscovery of certain characteristics of the Medieval Romance and the development of others by the Romantics, William Blake, William Wordsworth, and Samuel Taylor Coleridge. These characteristics are identifiable in the works of such later writers as Charles Dickens, William Morris, H.G. Wells, G.B. Shaw, C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkein. The concern of these succeeding authors is the same as that of the Romantics, i.e., the nature and condition of man in modern technological society. The study of the works of these authors reveals two distinct approaches to the relationship of man and his society, and these approaches produce two different types of hero.

Lord Byron was very much concerned with the problems of immortality and fame. Perhaps his greatest single theme in poetry is human greatness. An especial aspect of human greatness, namely of heroes in spirit and in action, is, of course, one of the most permanent and best known features of Byron's poetry, the creation of the Byronic hero" being one of the poet's most outstanding contribu- tions to world literature. This study is concerned with all of the heroes Lord Byron created. It is to be a study of their origin, development, and meaning in the poetry of Byron. Lord Byron published his first poetry, Hours of Idleness, which included some thirty-nine poems of varying length and quality, mostly written in the style of Alexander Pope and many of them employing the heroic couplet, in 1807. Byron was nineteen.
