Previous issue date: 2014-03-17 / Nenhuma / O objetivo principal desta tese é compreender como o capital social organizacional é desenvolvido em um projeto interorganizacional realizado no Terceiro Setor. O Terceiro Setor se desenvolveu a partir da necessidade social, uma vez que o setor público não atende as necessidades da população. Assim, as organizações que compõem este setor surgiram com o propósito de buscar alternativas aos mais diversos problemas sociais. Por apresentar uma lógica distinta, uma vez que são organizações privadas que prestam serviços públicos, este setor apresenta peculiaridades, principalmente no que tange à gestão. A fim de colaborar para a compreensão deste setor, foi investigado um projeto interorganizacional composto por 100 atores oriundos dos três setores, e gerenciado por uma organização não governamental. Esta pesquisa utilizou o capital social organizacional (CSO) como lente teórica e o terceiro setor como contexto. Nesse sentido, este estudo compreende o CSO como um beneficiador, tanto no acesso ao recurso externo como no desenvolvimento de processos internos, sendo considerado um importante componente na formação, contratação e gestão de organizações públicas, privadas e sem fins lucrativos. Para a realização deste estudo de caso único foram adotados como procedimentos metodológicos uma pesquisa de métodos mistos, a qual apresentou 3 etapas: qualitativa exploratória, quantitativa exploratória e qualitativa descritiva. As etapas qualitativas utilizaram a análise de conteúdo como técnica de análise de dados, enquanto a etapa quantitativa realizou a análise de conglomerados, seguidas pelos testes nãoparamétricos de Kruskal-Wallis e Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney. Esta tese contribui para o avanço no estudo do capital social, por meio da sugestão de uma quarta dimensão para a compreensão do desenvolvimento do capital social organizacional no Terceiro Setor, ou seja, para a compreensão do CSO no contexto do Terceiro Setor devem ser utilizadas quatro dimensões (estrutural, cognitiva, relacional e mobilizadora), sendo a última proposta por este estudo. A par da importância dos recursos e capacidades para as organizações do Terceiro Setor, a dimensão mobilizadora surge como uma forma alternativa de perceber o CSO. Nesse sentido, é vista como capacidade, atuando na mobilização e compartilhamento dos recursos que são capacidades fundamentais para as organizações desse setor. Os resultados sugerem que: (i) o desenvolvimento do CSO está alicerçado nas relações e nos seus níveis de maturidade, assim percebeu-se que o desenvolvimento de CSO em projetos interorganizacionais desenvolvidos no Terceiro Setor perpassa por quatro níveis de maturidade das relações, que são: Laços, Interações, Confiança e Compartilhamento de Recursos; (ii) a compreensão e as práticas desenvolvidas pelas organizações em relação ao compartilhamento de recursos dependem do nível de CSO apresentado pela organização social; (iii) Dimensão Mobilizadora pode ser vista como uma capacidade organizacional das organizações sociais, desenvolvida durante a trajetória organizacional e apresentando-se fortemente vinculada às peculiaridades das organizações que integram este setor; (iv) a compreensão do desenvolvimento do CSO no contexto do Terceiro Setor se dá a partir do framework proposto por este estudo, contendo a inclusão da Dimensão Mobilizadora. / The main objective of this dissertation is to understand how organizational capital is developed in an inter-organizational project undertaken in the Third Sector. Third Sector has developed from social needs, since the public sector does not meet the requests of the population. Thus, organizations that comprise this sector have emerged with the purpose of seeking alternatives to several social issues. For presenting a distinct logic, since they are private organizations that provide public services, this sector presents peculiarities, especially regarding management. In order to contribute to the understanding of this sector, we investigated an inter-organizational project comprised of 100 actors coming from the three sectors, and managed by a nongovernmental organization as well. This research used the organizational social capital (OSC) as the theoretical lens and the third sector as context. Therefore, this study recognize the OSC as a benefactor, both in access to external resources as in the development of internal processes, being considered an a central component in training, hiring and management of public, private and nonprofit organizations . For the accomplishment of this single case study, it was adopted mixed research methods aproach, which showed three stages: exploratory qualitative, exploratory quantitative, and descriptive qualitative. Qualitative stage have used content analysis technique, while quantitative stage have performed cluster analysis, followed by non - parametric Kruskal- Wallis and Wilcoxon - Mann – Whitney tests . This dissertation contributes to the improvement in the study of social capital through the suggestion of a fourth dimension to understanding the development of organizational social capital in the Third Sector, in other words, for the understanding of the OSC in the context of the Third Sector should be employed four dimensions (structural, cognitive, relational and mobilizing), being the latter proposed by this study. Combined with the role of resources and capabilities to organizations of the Third Sector, the mobilizing dimension emerges as an alternative way for perceiving the OSC. Consequently, it is seen as capability, acting in the mobilization and resource sharing, which are critical capabilities to the organizations from third sector. The results suggest that : ( i ) the development of the OSC is grounded in relationships and in their levels of maturity, thus it was realized that the development of OSC in interorganizational projects developed in the Third Sector permeates through four levels of maturity of relations, which are : Ties , Interactions , Trust and Resource Sharing; (ii) the understanding and the practices developed by organizations regarding resource sharing depends on the level of OSC presented by a social organization , (iii) The mobilizing dimension can be seen as an social organization capability , developed throughout the organizational path and being strongly linked to the peculiarities of the organizations that comprise the third sector, (iv) the understanding OSC development in the context of the third sector is given from the framework proposed by this study, encompassing the mobilizing the dimension .

Organizational Social Capital And Perceived Performance Of Drug Law Enforcement Departments: A Case Study In TurkeySahin, Ismail 01 January 2010 (has links)
Supply reduction efforts by drug law enforcement departments are a significant factor in improving the effectiveness of drug control policies. As with other public organizations, the performance of drug law enforcement departments is one of the most important concerns for policy makers. Therefore, improving the performance of these departments is crucial in order for governments to constrict illegal drug markets and prevent illegal drug distribution. The literature suggests that social capital may have significant implications for policy makers and practitioners in terms of enhancing organizational performance.Social capital has recently been examined at the organizational level. It may contribute to organizational effectiveness by increasing motivation, solving coordination problems, facilitating information flow between individuals and organizations, and developing knowledge within organizations. Because of the nature of the work, drug law enforcement departments or agencies require information sharing, cooperation, and motivation, all possible derivatives of social capital.Using a measurement model of organizational social capital, this study examines relationships among three dimensions of organizational social capital. The influence of social capital on the perceived performance of drug law enforcement departments is investigated using structural equation modeling. Possible correlations among these dimensions or domains of organizational social capital are also empirically tested.Using survey data from 12 city law enforcement departments in Turkey, this study examines three social capital dimensions: (1) the structural dimension, concerning the extent to which officers within a department informally interact with each other; (2) the relational dimension, referring to the normative qualities of relationships among officers, such as trust and reciprocity; and (3) the cognitive dimension, reflected by shared language, shared interpretation, and shared vision.Four research hypotheses were tested and supported by the statistical results. The study's findings indicate that the relational and cognitive social capital variables have a direct and positive relationship with the perceived performance of drug law enforcement departments. Relational and cognitive social capital, as latent constructs, were shown to have a strong relationship with organizational performance. Structural social capital, however, does not have a direct relationship with but may indirectly influence performance. This result indicates that structural social capital may influence organizational performance only indirectly, through its joint influence with two other social capital domains. On the other hand, strong and positive intercorrelations were found among the three dimensions. The results suggest that social capital is essential for drug law enforcement departments because police officers who know, understand, and trust each other are more likely to work together efficiently and effectively towards achieving organizational performance.According to the findings, informal structures shaped by informal relations among officers within the departments may also be an important factor for organizational performance. Investing in the development of social interactions and networks and building trust within organizations is important in order for administrators to improve organizational performance. The results of this conceptually grounded and empirical study suggest that drug law enforcement departments or agencies should pay close attention to promoting social capital among officers in order to fight effectively against drug trafficking.

Organizational Social Capital and Performance Information Use: Analyzing the Link and Its Implications for Public ManagementTantardini, Michele 20 June 2016 (has links)
The use of performance information is the backbone of performance management. Performance information use refers to the willingness of public managers or other relevant stakeholders to incorporate quantitative or qualitative data in their decision-making. Both routine and nonroutine performance information is considered essential in managers’ decision making. Understanding the organizational factors that motivate public managers to use performance information is an important topic in the literature and practice of performance management.
Although the number of studies on information use is growing, little is known about the impact of Organizational Social Capital (OSC). OSC is composed of the sub-dimensions of social interaction, trust, and shared goals. The main argument of this study is that OSC fosters performance information use in public administrations. It is expected that departments with high levels of organizational social capital are more likely to use both routine and nonroutine performance information.
To test the hypothesized effect, department heads, middle managers, and other individuals with a supervisory role from 513 Florida County Government departments were surveyed. Furthermore, interviews, focus groups, and analysis of secondary data were performed to provide the context and the narrative surrounding the hypothesized effect. Analysis of the survey data reveals evidence in support of the hypothesized effects. Furthermore, the comparative case study analysis shows the existence of substantial differences in the history, background, organizational culture, and management between the two counties. The main findings show how reorganization processes as well as a lack of leadership may have detrimental effects to organizational social capital.
Organizational social capital could be considered a relevant predictor of performance information use and thus deserves further attention from both researchers and practitioners.
