Tecnologias bancárias na era da flexibilidade: discursos e práticas da organização do trabalho nos bancosMachado, André Castelo Branco 29 February 2012 (has links)
Esta pesquisa explicita o caráter ideológico do discurso e das praticas flexíveis de gestão nos bancos brasileiros, através do confronto com o discurso de trabalhadores bancários e com os dados empíricos a respeito das condições concretas de trabalho nesta empresas. As mudanças de gestão são entendidas como tecnologias, bem como as transformações físicas ocorridas nos bancos - a automação bancaria - ambas integradas no processo produtivo como instrumento para consolidar o modelo de "acumulação flexível". Ao passo que essas novas tecnologias são travestidas de uma maior integração do trabalhador no processo produtivo, marcando o seu caráter corporativista, observamos uma intensificação do processo de exploração do trabalho, evidenciando que esta flexibilidade caracteriza um estágio de espoliação da força de trabalho no capitalismo. A estratégia dos bancos combina tanto a extrema exploração dos trabalhadores que prestam serviços em empresas terceirizadas e correspondentes como a intensificação do trabalho do trabalhador bancário. Os discursos dos bancários nos permitem compreender as contradições desse modelo flexível de organização do trabalho e os conflitos vivenciados no cotidiano das agências bancárias, gerando grande sofrimento aos trabalhadores. Analisamos os dados levantados e cruzados dentro de uma perspectiva histórico-social, a partir das contribuições de Marx e de autores marxistas, na qual as mudanças organizacionais são resultantes do desenvolvimento da luta de classes em sua dinâmica histórica. / This research explicits the ideological character of the speeches and pratices on brazilian's banks, confronting the bank workers' speech with empirical datas about the real conditions of work in these business. The management changes are understood as technologies, and the physical transformations that happened on banks - known as banking automation - as well, both serving as instrument to consolidate the model of "flexible accumulation". While these new technologies seems to create a bigger integration of the workers on the production process, with its corporatist character, we observe a intensification on work's exploration process, evidencing that this flexibility features a stage of despoilment of capitalism's workforce. The banks strategy combines the extreme exploration of workers from outsourced business who provide services for the banks with the intensification of the banks worker's labor. These workers' speeches allow us to comprehend the contradictions of this flexible model of work's organization and the daily conflicts experienced in banks, creating huge suffering to the workers. The collected and crossed datas were analyzed in a social-historical perspective, using Marx's contribution and other Marxists authors, who says that the organizational's changes results from the class struggle in its historical dynamic.

Tranferência de tecnologia entre universidades e empresas : os casos UNICAMP-SP e UNISINOS-RSChais, Cassiane 27 June 2014 (has links)
A universidade possui um histórico pautado na contribuição para avanço do conhecimento e da tecnologia no contexto econômico e social de um país, através do ensino, da pesquisa e da extensão. O conhecimento gerado por meio destas pesquisas entre alunos e pesquisadores pode ocasionar a interação com diferentes atores, entre eles governo e empresas, acarretando a transferência da tecnologia gerada na universidade para o mercado. A transferência de tecnologia pode ser considerada um processo que tem seu início na revelação da invenção, e sequência o registro da patente, o licenciamento, o uso comercial da tecnologia licenciada, e por fim os royalties recebidos pela universidade. Esta dissertação de mestrado pesquisou como ocorre a transferência de tecnologia, a partir de uma abordagem Schumpeteriana da trilogia da inovação e com um recorte na abordagem teórica da Tríplice Hélice de Etzkowitz, focando a interação universidade - empresa. A metodologia utilizada para este estudo foi a análise de dois casos com caráter exploratório e abordagem qualitativa. Os objetos de estudo da dissertação são as Instituições de Ensino Superior Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP) e a Universidade do Vale do Rio dos Sinos (UNISINOS). A técnica utilizada para a coleta dos dados foi a entrevista semiestruturada, e a técnica de análise dos dados foi a análise de conteúdo. Os principais resultados apontam que se faz necessário, principalmente que empresas e universidades compreendam que é preciso atuar conjuntamente na pesquisa tecnológica colaborativa, para que os recursos financeiros investidos pelo governo ou iniciativa privada não sejam aceitos somente como artigos publicados em revistas científicas, mas sim, que se transformem em inovações tecnológicas aceitas pelo mercado. / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior, CAPES. / The university has a history grounded in contribution to the advancement of knowledge and technology in economic and social context of a country through education and research and extension. The knowledge generated through these surveys among students and researchers can lead to interaction with different stakeholders, including government and business, resulting in the transfer of technology generated in the university to market. Technology transfer can be regarded as a process that begins in the disclosure of the invention, following the registration of the patent, licensing, the commercial use of the licensed technology, and finally the royalties received by the university. This dissertation investigated the transfer of technology from a Schumpeterian approach to innovation trilogy and a cutout in the theoretical approach of the Triple Helix of Etzkowitz occurs, focusing on the interaction university - enterprise. The methodology used for this study was the analysis of two cases with exploratory and qualitative approach. The objects of study of the thesis are the Institutions of Higher Education State University of Campinas (UNICAMP) and the University of Vale do Rio dos Sinos (UNISINOS). The technique used for data collection was a semi-structured interview technique and the data analysis was content analysis. This research concluded that it is necessary , especially to businesses and universities understand that you need to walk together in collaborative technology research , so that financial resources invested by the government or private companies are not only accepted as eligible articles published in magazines , but that transformed into technological innovations accepted by the market.

Development and validation of a measure that examines attitudes towards e-HRM practicesShane, Lisa 03 1900 (has links)
The main objective of this research was to investigate, analyse and evaluate attitudes
towards electronic human resource management (e-HRM) tools within a large South
African financial institution. This was done by developing and validating an instrument to
determine e-HRM tool usage, e-HRM tool preference as well as attitudes towards e-
HRM.
Methodology: a total of 104 HR professionals and line managers completed the e-HRM
attitudinal questionnaire. The sample demographics were obtained using analysis of the
frequencies of respondents in each of the demographic categories as well as within the
tool usage section and attitudinal measurement section. To ascertain the internal
consistency of the attitudinal component of the e-HRM measurement instrument and the
six attitudinal subscales, the Cronbach’s alpha reliability coefficient was calculated for
overall scale and corresponding subscales. Due to the low reliability obtained for three
of the subscales, the structure of the e-HRM measurement instrument was assessed
using exploratory factor analysis. Differences between groups with regard to preference
for tool usage were assessed, using Pearson’s Chi-Square tests for both the
occupational and the demographic characteristics of respondents. Finally, to explore
whether there were any significant differences for biographical and occupational
demographics and attitude on the measurement instruments, an independent samples ttest
was conducted and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used.
The main finding of the study was that users of e-HRM tools had significantly more
positive attitudes towards e-HRM tools than non-users. / (M.A. (Industrial and Organisational Psychology))

An investigation into the impact of enterprise architecture decisions on the responsibilities of software developers in companies that develop softwareVan der Linde, Judith 24 July 2013 (has links)
Enterprise Architecture endeavours to resolve the complexity of increasingly distributed systems by aligning business vision with IT strategy, which in turn should reduce the overall costs of IT in the business and provide simpler, better and faster solutions to business problems. There are many Enterprise Architecture frameworks.
The main purpose of most of these frameworks is to assist with the challenges of managing the increased complexity of distributed systems, aligning business vision with IT strategy and reducing IT costs.
Many of the studies which produced the results stating Enterprise Architecture aligns business vision and reduces IT costs, were based on Zachman’s work, and most of the published Enterprise Architecture success stories focus on the benefits provided to the company with regards to IT. In contrast very little documentation could be found that addresses the impact of Enterprise Architecture implementations on the individuals and systems within a company. If the individuals as the main implementers of any strategy are impacted negatively by Enterprise Architecture management decisions, there would be a negative impact on the return on investment of the company.
Enterprise Architecture allows the use of overlapping departments’ processes and data, which translates into less development time as system components would already exist. Changes that are made to the Enterprise Architecture result in several additional changes that had to be implemented by the software developers. These changes influenced the workload, roles and responsibilities of the developers in such a way that the development team became negative about the additional work.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of Enterprise Architecture management decisions on the responsibilities, work experience and attitude towards Enterprise Architecture of the software developers in a company that develops software by exploring and describing the nature of software development. Based on the findings of this study, a list of impact of Enterprise Architecture decisions on the responsibilities of software developers in companies that develop software were identified. In this respect, the study identified impacts of Enterprise Architecture management decisions as well as possible solutions to these impacts. / Computing / M. Sc. (Information Systems)

A strategic theoretical framework to safeguard business value for information systemsGrobler, Chris Daniel January 2017 (has links)
The phenomenon of business value dissipation in mature organisations as an unintended by-product of the adoption and use of information systems has been a highly debated topic in the corporate boardroom awakening the interest of practitioners and academics alike. Much of the discourse tends to focus on the inability of organisations to unlock and realise the intended benefits to be harvested through large information systems investments. While the business case for investing in large technology programmes has been thoroughly investigated, the human agent that causes value erosion through his interaction with information systems (IS), has not received the studied attention it deserves.
This study examines the use of technology in organisations by considering the dichotomy inherent in IS where its introduction for the purposes of creating new or sustaining existing business value subsequently also inadvertently dissipates value. The study proceeds to investigate the root people-induced causes resulting in the unintentional dissipation of value and presents an empirically validated model suggesting that human agents do not only create value for organisations through their use of IS, but at the same time, deliberately or inadvertently, dissipate value.
The root people-induced causes resulting in the unintentional dissipation of value is delineated within a Theoretical Technology Value Framework that is constructed from a review of the extant literature, and delineates the overall unintentional value destroying causes and effects of IS on organisations. The Theoretical Technology Value Framework is forthwith applied as a basis for the development of a set of questions to support both qualitative and quantitative investigations from which an Archetypical Technology Value Model was derived.
Finally, an Archetypical Technology Value Model is presented as a benchmark and basis to identify, investigate, mitigate and minimise or eliminate the unintentional value destroying effects of IS on Information Technology driven organisations.
The study concludes with implications for both theory and practice and suggestions on how value erosion through the activities of the human agent may be identified, modeled and mitigated. Ultimately, recommendations are offered towards the crafting of more effective IS. / School of Computing / Ph. D. (Information Systems)
