11	História organizacional da ENAP : uma análise dos papéis desempenhados e das competências desenvolvidas / Organizational history of ENAP : roles and competences developed Silva, Manuela Ramos da January 2017 (has links) Essa tese versa sobre escolas de governo e, particularmente, sobre a Escola Nacional de Administração Pública (ENAP). A questão central é: Como a ENAP é escola de governo? O objetivo geral é compreender a ENAP como escola de governo; e os objetivos específicos são i) descrever a história organizacional da ENAP como escola de governo, de sua criação até a atualidade; ii) analisar os papéis desempenhados pela ENAP como escola de governo e iii) analisar as competências organizacionais da ENAP como escola de governo. Trata-se de uma abordagem histórica, dinâmica e processual da organização, dos papéis e das competências organizacionais em uma escola de governo. Trata-se de uma abordagem com base interpretativista. Como opção metodológica, esta tese utiliza predominantemente métodos históricos, os quais guiaram a decisão operacional quanto ao uso das técnicas de coleta de dados: entrevista com recurso da história oral temática, pesquisa documental e observação nãoparticipante. Privilegiam-se as narrativas das experiências de 17 atores, que participaram ou participam da história da ENAP. O processo analítico e interpretativo é desenvolvido com base nos princípios da Análise Temática, nas seguintes fases: primeiro a descrição do contexto da ENAP, seguida da análise dos papéis da ENAP e da identificação dos marcos históricos; em terceiro, a análise das competências organizacionais a partir de temas emergentes da narrativa dos atores, e no quarto momento, desenvolve-se um diálogo empírico teórico com o conceito de escola de governo e com as competências organizacionais da ENAP. Como principal resultado, afirma-se que a história dos papéis da ENAP e da formação de suas competências organizacionais foram marcadas por processos adaptativos, emergentes, incrementais, principalmente quando se entende que as práticas são padrões reconhecidos, ainda que variem de acordo com o cenário em que são desempenhados, são reconhecíveis, e pela sua própria execução, se disseminam e se modificam constantemente, recursivamente._________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT: This thesis is about schools of government and, particularly, about the National School of Public Administration (ENAP). The central question is: how is ENAP a government school? The main objective is to understand ENAP as a government school; and the specific objectives are i) to describe the organizational history of ENAP as a government school, from the day of its creation to the current day; ii) analyze the roles played by ENAP as a government school; and iii) analyze the organizational competences of ENAP as a government school. It is a historical, dynamic and procedural approach of the organization, the roles and the organizational competences in a government school. It is an interpretativist approach. As a methodological option, this thesis uses predominantly the historical methods, which guided the operational decision on the use of the data collection methods: interview with resources from the thematic oral history, documental research and nonparticipative observation. There is a focus on the narratives of the experiences of 17 actors, which participated or participate in the history of ENAP, the analytical and interpretative process being developed with basis on the principles of Thematic Analysis, in the following phases: first, the description of the context of ENAP, followed by the analysis of the description of the roles played by ENAP and the identification of the historical marks; third, the analysis of the organizational competences starting from themes that emerge from the actors' narratives, and, in the fourth moment, there is the narration of a theoretical empirical dialogue with the concept of government school and the organizational competences of ENAP. As a main result it is stated that the history of ENAP's roles and the formation of its organizational competences were marked by adaptive, emergent, incremental processes, especially when it is understood that practices are recognized standards, although they vary greatly according to the scenario in which they are performed, are recognizable, and by their own execution, are constantly disseminated and modified, recursively.

12	An investigation into the awareness and preparedness of the Inkandla and Mbazwana school clusters concerning sharing of information resources. Nzimande, Sibongile. January 2006 (has links) The purpose of this study was to investigate the awareness and preparedness of the Inkandla and Mbazwana school clusters concerning the sharing of information resources. This investigation needs to be viewed bearing in mind the contexts of developing countries. These countries are poor but experience varying degrees of poverty, and there is always a shortage of funds to support quality assuring programmes, for example libraries. Access to amenities like laboratories and libraries is generally viewed as a luxury, more so by people who went through their education deprived of these facilities but who managed nevertheless to obtain high qualifications. The argument tends to be "some of us made it without libraries, therefore they are not important". Unfortunately many policymakers think like this. There have always been sectors pushing for the development of school libraries, coupled with resource based learning as this approach is regarded as likely to produce independent, lifelong learners. A resource based curriculum requires an abundance of resources, however the issue of lack of funding referred to above, may prevent any individual school from having all the resources required to support a resource based curriculum. Creative ways of ensuring the availability of resources to all schools have been conceived and clustering schools in order to encourage them to share resources and expertise is one of them. The KwaZulu-Natal Department of Education has used the clustering of schools for resource sharing. The evolution of the clustering project however, took different forms and subsequent events showed that the form taken either allowed for further growth and development, or subjected the project to failure and decay. The Inkandla and Mbazwana scenarios, presented two different models and different evolutionary histories that present interesting topics for research, and both scenarios had different stories to tell. Issues of acceptance, that is awareness and preparedness, accessibility, and community dynamics play a major role in ensuring the success or failure of a project; and this is very evident in Mbazwana and Inkandla. This study attempted to measure the levels of awareness and preparedness concerning the sharing of information resources. Preparatory ground work among communities was necessary to ensure the people were willing to embrace the concept of resource sharing and its values. Three methods were selected as appropriate to the study that is reviewing the relevant literature and data collection by questionnaire and interview schedule. Two nodal points were studied, one at Inkandla and another at Mbazwana. Stratified sampling with ten respondents from each cluster was used to make the sample representative. Since the study needed to establish the levels of awareness and preparedness by these cluster members as well as nodal schools of the clustering concept, it emerged from the study that there are two types of awareness, that is, awareness of the vision, and awareness of the centres or nodal points and their resources. Responses concerning awareness of the vision yielded a variety of results because the levels of awareness differed from individual to individual, and it is the levels of awareness that eventually determine levels of preparedness to embrace the concepts, ultimately affecting the use and non-use of the centres. The study revealed that even though the concept has numerous challenges, the population studied was not generally averse to the concept, however, a lot of preparatory work needs to be done prior to setting up such projects. Once set up careful monitoring and a timely response to problems is important for the sustainability of these centres. / Thesis (MIS)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, [2006].

Em abril de 2009, foi criada a Escola de Gestão Pública do Estado do Ceará – EGP, para preencher, segundo seus mentores, uma lacuna na formação do servidor em Gestão Pública. Ao realizar a sua missão de formação do servidor público, a EGP usa a estratégia do Ensino a Distância, por meio do Núcleo de Educação a Distância Governamental - @NEDGOV. Sob tal realidade, avaliar-se-ão os resultados do Ensino a Distância da EGP como estratégia na formação do servidor público do Ceará, verificando a coerência de propósitos no âmbito onde foi criada, como também sua ação prática. No intuito de alcançarmos os nossos objetivos traçamos uma metodologia avaliativa que consistiu em uma ampla pesquisa bibliográfica sobre o tema Educação a Distância, considerando a perspectiva, das categorias maiores, diretamente envolvidas, sejam elas, Educação e Trabalho. Coletamos e sintetizamos, os dados fornecidos pelo Sistema de Capacitação gerido pela EGP, para obtermos os índices gerais de aprovação, reprovação desistência e abandono dos seis cursos, realizados no ano de 2011 na modalidade EAD, exclusivamente pelo @NEDGOV, bem como analisamos as avaliações reativas aplicadas aos alunos concludentes, verificando a resposta imediata no índice de satisfação dos alunos, logo após o fim do curso. Desenvolvemos ainda, uma pesquisa com os alunos egressos destes seis cursos, em busca de identificar se o desempenho profissional do aluno melhorou em função da participação nos referidos cursos. Em nossas considerações finais expomos o grave problema dos elevados índices de evasão nos cursos, relatamos que de acordo com os resultados apresentados na pesquisa, houve uma melhora no desempenho profissional após a participação nos cursos na modalidade à distância, realizados exclusivamente pelo núcleo governamental. Sugerimos algumas estratégias a EGP, para o enfrentamento do problema da evasão, sugerimos ainda, para futuras pesquisas um trabalho capaz de medir o impacto das ações da EGP para o cidadão, sujeito final das ações de todas as políticas públicas.

14	Disruptive Transformations in Health Care: Technological Innovation and the Acute Care General Hospital Lucas, D. Pulane 24 April 2013 (has links) Advances in medical technology have altered the need for certain types of surgery to be performed in traditional inpatient hospital settings. Less invasive surgical procedures allow a growing number of medical treatments to take place on an outpatient basis. Hospitals face growing competition from ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs). The competitive threats posed by ASCs are important, given that inpatient surgery has been the cornerstone of hospital services for over a century. Additional research is needed to understand how surgical volume shifts between and within acute care general hospitals (ACGHs) and ASCs. This study investigates how medical technology within the hospital industry is changing medical services delivery. The main purposes of this study are to (1) test Clayton M. Christensen’s theory of disruptive innovation in health care, and (2) examine the effects of disruptive innovation on appendectomy, cholecystectomy, and bariatric surgery (ACBS) utilization. Disruptive innovation theory contends that advanced technology combined with innovative business models—located outside of traditional product markets or delivery systems—will produce simplified, quality products and services at lower costs with broader accessibility. Consequently, new markets will emerge, and conventional industry leaders will experience a loss of market share to “non-traditional” new entrants into the marketplace. The underlying assumption of this work is that ASCs (innovative business models) have adopted laparoscopy (innovative technology) and their unification has initiated disruptive innovation within the hospital industry. The disruptive effects have spawned shifts in surgical volumes from open to laparoscopic procedures, from inpatient to ambulatory settings, and from hospitals to ASCs. The research hypothesizes that: (1) there will be larger increases in the percentage of laparoscopic ACBS performed than open ACBS procedures; (2) ambulatory ACBS will experience larger percent increases than inpatient ACBS procedures; and (3) ASCs will experience larger percent increases than ACGHs. The study tracks the utilization of open, laparoscopic, inpatient and ambulatory ACBS. The research questions that guide the inquiry are: 1. How has ACBS utilization changed over this time? 2. Do ACGHs and ASCs differ in the utilization of ACBS? 3. How do states differ in the utilization of ACBS? 4. Do study findings support disruptive innovation theory in the hospital industry? The quantitative study employs a panel design using hospital discharge data from 2004 and 2009. The unit of analysis is the facility. The sampling frame is comprised of ACGHs and ASCs in Florida and Wisconsin. The study employs exploratory and confirmatory data analysis. This work finds that disruptive innovation theory is an effective model for assessing the hospital industry. The model provides a useful framework for analyzing the interplay between ACGHs and ASCs. While study findings did not support the stated hypotheses, the impact of government interventions into the competitive marketplace supports the claims of disruptive innovation theory. Regulations that intervened in the hospital industry facilitated interactions between ASCs and ACGHs, reducing the number of ASCs performing ACBS and altering the trajectory of ACBS volume by shifting surgeries from ASCs to ACGHs.
