O propósito da presente dissertação de mestrado é o de investigar o trabalho e a cultura em agências de publicidade brasileiras, a partir da perspectiva da sustentabilidade organizacional. Tal perspectiva preconiza que as empresas considerem seus colaboradores como um importante público, com o qual devem manter relações éticas, justas e transparentes. Por sua vez, as agências de publicidade, que são o corpus da presente pesquisa, apresentam vícios organizacionais e profissionais, que foram observados durante vivência de nove anos da pesquisadora como publicitária do mercado brasileiro. Os principais questionamentos advindos dessa prévia observação participante, giram em torno dos fatores que originam, influenciam, mantém ou legitimam tais vícios. Mais especificamente, enfoca-se as grandes agências de publicidade, pois, tidas como \"cristais\" do mercado publicitário - em faturamento, clientes, prêmios etc. - infere-se que sirvam de exemplo às demais agências - pequenas e médias -, bem como a empresas de outros setores da indústria da publicidade brasileira, como produtoras e fornecedores. Diante da variedade influências que tecem a realidade social do trabalho em grandes agências, recorre-se à abordagem interdisciplinar para composição do referencial teórico que considera os aportes do campo de estudos da comunicação, cultura e sustentabilidade organizacionais; como os da sociologia histórica, da antropologia, da psicologia do trabalho e da gestão antropológica. Dessa forma, faz-se presente o paradigma complexo nesta obra. Para cumprir o objetivo de pesquisa, recorre-se ao inventário e análise de nuances culturais e de práticas organizacionais e profissionais em agências de publicidade, a partir de pesquisa social exploratória, realizada na cidade de São Paulo entre maio de 2012 e maio de 2014, com visitas a seis grandes agências, ao Sindicato dos Publicitários de São Paulo e conta 36 participantes, de diferentes perfis e cargos. A pluralidade da amostragem é composta por dois critérios: inclusão progressiva e aleatoriedade. Os participantes contribuem em entrevistas em profundidade não estruturadas e semiestruturadas e no preenchimento de questionário em escalas Likert, técnica e instrumento selecionados para atingir o objetivo da pesquisa. A partir da correlação entre aspectos inventariados da cultura e do trabalho em grandes agências, é possível realizar análises que desvelam como se dá o trabalho no ethos da produção publicitária nacional. Muitos aspectos analisados divergem da noção da sustentabilidade organizacional. Neste contexto, o papel primordial da comunicação organizacional é debatido: o de captar e interpretar aspectos dissonantes dos preceitos sustentáveis, para possibilitar aos gestores tomadas de decisões direcionadas a um (re)tecer cultural que considere o trabalho como um valor sustentável. / The purpose of this master thesis is to investigate the work and culture in Brazilian advertising agencies, from the perspective of organizational sustainability. This perspective recommends that companies consider their employees as an important public with which they must maintain ethical, fair and transparent relations. Besides, advertising agencies, which are the corpus of this research, present organizational and labor vices, which were observed during nine years of experience as a researcher in the Brazilian advertising market. The main questions arising from this previous participant observation revolve around the factors that lead, influence, maintain or legitimize such vices. More specifically, it focuses on is the big advertising agencies known as \"crystals\" of the advertising market - in sales, customers, awards etc. - It appears that they serve as an example to other agencies - small and medium - as well as companies in other sectors of the Brazilian advertising industry, as producers and suppliers. Regardless of the variety influences that weave the social reality of working in large agencies, refers to the interdisciplinary approach to get the composition of the theoretical framework that considers the contributions of the communication studies, organizational culture and sustainability; as the historical sociology, anthropology, psychology of work and anthropological management. Thus, there is the complex paradigm shown in this scientific study. To fulfill the objective of research, it is through the identification and analysis of cultural nuances and organizational practices and professionals in advertising agencies, from exploratory social survey conducted in São Paulo between May 2012 and May 2014, with visits to six major agencies, to the Advertisers Union of São Paulo and has 36 participants from different profiles and positions. The plurality of sampling consists of two criteria: progressive inclusion and randomness. Participants contribute in-depth interviews unstructured and semi-structured questionnaire and fill in Likert scales, technical and selected instrument to achieve the objective of the research. From the correlation between inventory aspects of culture and work in large agencies, it is possible to perform analyzes that reveal how is the work ethos of the national advertising production. Many aspects analyzed diverge from the notion of organizational sustainability. In this context, the primary role of organizational communication is discussed: how to capture and to interpret dissonant aspects of sustainable principles, to enable managers making decisions directed to a cultural (re)weave that considers work as a sustainable value

Todas as áreas de uma organização dependem em grande medida da ação das pessoas. Logo, se o intuito é ser sustentável, a organização deve proporcionar o alinhamento entre as diretrizes da sustentabilidade e suas iniciativas. Um dos desafios da gestão de pessoas está em gerir as organizações em relação aos seus recursos humanos-sociais, naturais e econômicos, envolvendo a sustentabilidade organizacional à sua área de atuação. O setor bancário brasileiro por apresentar um grande poder econômico e financeiro, tem capacidade de investir em ações abrangendo os âmbitos social e ambiental. Equilibrar os investimentos para os três aspectos do tripé da sustentabilidade é parte das transformações sugeridas pela GSP (Gestão Sustentável de Pessoas). A fim de identificar se a gestão de pessoas do setor bancário brasileiro está alinhada às estratégias de sustentabilidade organizacional, analisando suas iniciativas da GSP, foi desenvolvida uma análise descritiva, qualitativa-quantitativa, baseada em análise de conteúdo e análises das informações da triangulação de dados envolvendo: os relatórios anuais ou de sustentabilidade dos bancos, acórdãos trabalhistas finalizados no ano de 2014 do Tribunal Regional do Trabalho da 2a Região de São Paulo, e informações da Federação Brasileira de Bancos e do Sindicato dos Bancários e Financiários de São Paulo, Osasco e Região. Dentre os subsistemas de Gestão de pessoas analisados, a área de Recrutamento e Seleção, Sistema de Pagamento e Recompensa e Gestão de Desempenho e Avaliação, são os que precisam de maior detalhamento no reporte dos bancos. Dos acórdãos analisados, os índices mais recorrentes foram queixas relativas às horas extras, e em seguida, indenizações por assédio moral. As solicitações de doenças profissionais tiveram índices baixos, apresentando melhoria no setor frente à essas questões. Os bancos em geral não atingiram o nível de integrar e embutir extremamente as diretrizes em cada um dos aspectos do tripé da sustentabilidade, sendo o Itaú Unibanco o banco que apresentou mais detalhadamente suas ações. Embora o interesse na GSP, que agrega a sustentabilidade organizacional aos subsistemas de gestão de pessoas, tem sido recorrente, mais pesquisas são necessárias para dar forma e desenvolver um guia de implicações práticas, com clareza e objetividade para serem seguidas pelas organizações. Por meio da metodologia sistêmica (SSM), um quadro de ações foi desenvolvido, com intuito de proporcionar apoio, tanto estratégico quanto operacional, ao setor bancário brasileiro, para que a sustentabilidade organizacional seja implantada em suas ações. Nesse sentido, esta pesquisa agregou valor por avançar na exploração desta lacuna na literatura, bem como no delineamento das categorias dos subsistemas de Gestão de Pessoas. Por fim, a pesquisa proporcionou reflexões teóricas quanto a GSP e, a análise das ações e iniciativas do setor bancário brasileiro permitiu identificar o atual panorama do setor no que tange à sustentabilidade organizacional. / All areas of organization depends largely on the action of the people. Therefore, if the organization\'s purpose is to be sustainable, it must provide the alignment between the guidelines of sustainability and its initiatives. One of the challenges of people management is to manage organizations in relation to their human and social, natural and economic resources, involving organizational sustainability to their area of expertise. The Brazilian banking industry presents a great economic and financial power, so it has the capacity to invest in actions covering the social and environmental spheres. Balance investments for the three aspects of sustainability tripod is part of the changes suggested by the Sustainable HRM (Human Resources Management). In order to identify if the people management of the Brazilian banking sector is aligned with organizational sustainability strategies, analyzing their Sustainable HSM initiatives, it was developed a descriptive analysis, qualitative and quantitative, based on content analysis and analysis of the data triangulation information involving: the annual reports or sustainability of banks, labor judgments finalized in 2014 of the Regional Labor Court of the 2nd Region of São Paulo, and information of the Brazilian Federation of Banks and the Union of Banking and Financiários of São Paulo, Osasco and Region. Among the Management subsystems analyzed people, the area of Recruitment and Selection, System Pay and Reward and Performance Management and Evaluation, are in need of more detailed reporting of the banks. Among the judgments analyzed, the most recurrent rates were complaints relating to overtime, and then compensation for bullying. Requests for occupational diseases had low rates, with improvements in the sector ahead to these issues. Banks in general have not reached the level to integrate and extremely embed the guidelines in each of the aspects of the triple bottom line, with Itaú Unibanco the bank presented in more detail their actions. Although interest in Sustainable HSM, which aggregates organizational sustainability to people management subsystems, have been recurrent, more research was needed to shape and develop a guide of practical implications, clearly and objectively to be followed by organizations. Through the soft systemic methodology (SSM), an action framework was developed, aiming to provide both strategic and operational support to the Brazilian banking sector, so that organizational sustainability is deployed in their actions. In this sense, this research has added value for advancing the exploration of this gap in the literature as well as in the design category of the subsystems of Personnel Management. Finally, the research provided theoretical reflections as the Sustainable HSM and the analysis of the actions and initiatives of the Brazilian banking industry has identified the current situation of the sector with regard to organizational sustainability.

Background There exist an external demand forcing the manufacturing industry to increase their sustainable practice. For manufacturing companies to stay competitive it is necessary for them to transform their organization and operation to be more sustainably responsive. To meet the external demand for sustainable practice in the manufacturing industry, companies need to find new innovative solutions for their production processes.  Implementing new process innovations in production processes can be an uncertain task for companies to manage. To reduce the uncertainty, it is important to experiment with different solutions before implementation. To conduct experiments in an efficient and safe way, companies can use the tool simulation to validate process innovations before implementation.  There exist different simulation methods a company can use. Physical simulations are used when a company have production processes that cannot be simulated through a computer. Physical simulations are conducted in test facilities where companies can analyze material behavior in a laboratory scale production process.  Research questions RQ1: What need exists for test facilities in manufacturing companies?  RQ2: What benefits can be obtained using test facilities?  Aim A1: Identify stakeholder needs and based on these needs develop a conceptual test facility adapted to the case company.  Method To answer the research questions and fulfill the aim of the study, a literature review and a case study was conducted. The literature review explored the need and benefits of conducting physical simulations in test facilities when implementing new innovations in production processes to meet the demand for sustainability.  The case study was conducted at Volvo Construction Equipment in Hallsberg where the need to implement a test facility for their chemical production process was explored together with the benefits such a facility might contribute with. The case study also entailed information with stakeholder’s need for the development of a conceptual test facility to fulfill to the aim of the thesis.  Findings The findings suggest that there exists a need for implementing test facilities in manufacturing companies with chemical production processes. To transform production processes to meet external demands, companies must experiment with new innovations before implementation. A test facility could increase the efficiency when transforming and improving chemical production processes as well as strengthen the knowledge within the company for organizational development.  Furthermore, findings contributed with the development of a conceptual test facility adapted to the case company’s chemical production process. This facility was constructed increase the company’s ability for conducting quality and development test of their current state production process. / Bakgrund Det existerar ett yttre krav som tvingar tillverkningsindustrin att öka sin hållbarhet. För att tillverkande företag ska förbli konkurrenskraftiga är det nödvändigt att omvandla sin organisation och verksamhet för att bli mer hållbart lyhörd. För dem att bemöta de yttre kraven på hållbart utövande inom tillverkningsindustrin behöver företag hitta nya innovativa lösningar för sina produktionsprocesser.  Att implementera nya processinnovationer i produktionsprocesser kan vara en osäker uppgift för företag att hantera. För att minska osäkerheten är det viktigt att experimentera med olika lösningar innan implementering. För att genomföra experiment på ett effektivt och säkert sätt kan företag använda simulering för att validera processinnovationer innan implementering.  Det finns olika simuleringsmetoder som ett företag kan använda. Fysiska simuleringar används när ett företag har produktionsprocesser som inte kan simuleras via en dator. Fysiska simulering genomförs i testanläggningar där företag kan analysera materialbeteende i produktionsprocess i laboratorieskala.  Forskningsfrågor F1: Vilket behov för testanläggningar existerar i tillverkningsföretag?  F1: Vilka fördelar kan erhållas genom att använda testanläggningar?  Mål M1: Identifiera intressentbehoven och utifrån dessa behov utveckla en konceptuell testanläggning anpassad till företaget.  Metod För att svara på forskningsfrågorna och uppfylla målet med studien genomfördes en litteraturstudie och en fallstudie. Litteraturstudien undersökte behovet och fördelarna med att utföra fysiska simuleringar i testanläggningar när nya innovation i produktionsprocesser ska implementeras för att möta hållbarhetskraven.  Fallstudien genomfördes på Volvo Construction Equipment i Hallsberg där behovet av att implementera en testanläggning för deras kemiska produktionsprocess undersöktes tillsammans med vilka fördelar en sådan anläggning kan bidra med. Fallstudien medförde också information med intressenters behov vid utvecklingen av en konceptuell testanläggning för att uppfylla avhandlingens mål.  Resultat Resultaten tyder på att det finns ett behov av att implementera testanläggningar i tillverkande företag med kemiska produktionsprocesser. För att omvandla produktionsprocesser för att bemöta de yttre kraven måste företag experimentera med nya innovationer innan de implementeras. En testanläggning skulle kunna öka effektiviteten vid omvandling och förbättring av kemiska produktionsprocesser samt stärka kunskapen inom företaget för utveckling av organisationen.  Dessutom bidrog resultaten till utvecklingen av en konceptuell testanläggning anpassat till det studerade företagets kemiska produktionsprocess. Denna anläggning konstruerades för att öka företagets förmåga att genomföra kvalitets- och utvecklingstest av deras nuvarande produktionsprocess.

Purpose – The purpose of this research is to investigate how organizations successfully can implement sustainability strategies. To fulfill the purpose, three research questions were established: What factors are important to consider when implementing environmental sustainability strategies? How do these factors affect the implementation of an environmental sustainability strategy? How can these factors enable a successful implementation of sustainability strategies? Method – To achieve the purpose of this study, a case study has been conducted at an organization where empirical data has been collected through interviews, observations, and document analyses. Further, a literature review was carried out to establish a theoretical framework. The empirical data and theoretical framework have been compared and analyzed in order to answer the research questions and fulfill the purpose. Findings – The findings provided six important factors in the implementation of environmental sustainability strategies: organizational structure, organizational culture, internal communication, management control, leadership, and employee motivation. The factors affect the implementation by hindering and facilitating alignment, common understanding, efficient communication, employee involvement and motivation. Further, the factors can enable a successful implementation by creating a mutual understanding of the strategy's vision and goals and establishing an organizational alignment in relation to the strategy. Last, the research indicates that a holistic consideration of these factors is needed. Implications – The research did not contribute to new theories, however, it provided increased knowledge on various factors that affect and enable environmental sustainability strategy implementation. Further, the research suggests that the factors should be considered holistically and simultaneously to achieve organizational alignment and mutual understanding. Limitations – The study is a single case study where one organization has been explored and a limited number of interviews have been conducted. The credibility of the study is believed to have increased further if multiple organizations had been studied with more interviews.

Magister Commercii (Industrial Psychology) - MCom(IPS) / In the 21st century the nature of work and life has become characterized by unavoidable changes. These changes are brought about by various environmental, social and technological developments or unforeseen occurrences. It has become more challenging for economies, countries and organizations to bounce back from these volatile fluctuations in all markets and industries (Martine & Alves, 2015). Examples of the above-mentioned changes is emphasized by Wales (2013) who identified that trends such as climate change, globalization and social inequality have created a significant challenge to the traditional business model. The “credit crunch”, corporate scandals and possible corruption have led to a loss of trust in business, and companies are facing pressures from governments, consumers, employees and investors to demonstrate that they are adopting ethical and sustainable business practices (Pfeffer, 2015). Similarly, Martine and Alves (2015) question whether the economy, society and environment in the 21st century are indeed the three pillars of sustainability. These factors highlight the importance of critically discussing factors surrounding economic growth and the sustainability thereof.

Ineffective leadership impedes employee performance and threatens organizational sustainability, causing U.S. businesses to spend billions of dollars addressing such issues. Correspondingly, boxing promotion companies are challenged as some leaders lack strategies to improve employee performance. This single case study was focused on leadership strategies utilized in the boxing promotion industry to improve employee performance. Transformational and charismatic leadership theories were the conceptual framework for this study. The data consisted of semistructured interviews with 8 participants from 1 organization (4 leaders and 4 subordinates), as well as document review of company training materials. The 6-step model for thematic analysis coding procedure was used for data analysis. Five themes/strategies emerged: leading by example, inspiring/fostering teamwork, honest communication, people-driven actions, innovative/adaptive organizational change, and providing rewards were each associated with effective transactional leadership for increasing performance and sustainability. The consensus among participants was that effective leadership is a significant factor in improving employee performance, maintaining constructive leader-subordinate relationships, and increasing organizational sustainability. The social change implications include community economic enhancement. When organizational performance, as well as local economies and communities have the potential to thrive, local spending and use of community resources may also increase to stimulate local economies.

Les difficultés économiques qui affectent les systèmes de protection sociale, l’évolution des politiques publiques sous l’affirmation des principes du nouveau management public, et l’évolution des savoirs médicaux et soignants font peser sur de nombreux établissements de santé des menaces importantes pour leur survie ou à tout le moins sur la continuation de leur projet originel. Cette thèse s’intéresse à la question des facteurs de pérennité des organisations de santé. Elle repose sur l’étude de cas longitudinale d’un établissement psychiatrique privé fondé en 1943 qui assure la responsabilité de la psychiatrie publique du secteur de l’Est vaudois, alors qu’il pratique une politique de soins qui se réfère à la psychanalyse, à contre-courant des références actuelles en psychiatrie qui relèvent plutôt des neurosciences et des traitements cognitivo-comportementaux (TCC). Suivant les principes de la démarche clinique, une approche globale de l'organisation est réalisée pour comprendre la dynamique de fonctionnement de cette institution et son faire-ensemble particulier. Dans cet perspective, l’analyse se focalise sur les pratiques du quotidien, tant du point de vue des soins (les pratiques cliniques) que du management (les pratiques de gestion), en prenant également en compte la dimension historique de l’institution mais aussi de l’environnement et de la psychiatrie. Il ressort de cette analyse que 3 éléments fondent la pérennité de cet établissement dans une dynamique récursive :- une philosophie des soins affirmée et ancrée sur des valeurs humanistes,- l’homologie entre pratiques cliniques et pratiques de gestion,- La gestion de l’interstitiel, c’est-à-dire les espaces de marge de manœuvre et d’autonomie des acteurs instaurés en dehors de toute structure et de regards hiérarchiques dans des relations de confiance.Ces 3 éléments constituent l’esquisse d’un modèle organisationnel de pérennité qui devra être testé à plus grande échelle. / The economic difficulties affecting social protection systems, the evolution of public policies under the affirmation of the principles of the new public management, and the evolution of medical and nursing knowledge pose major threats to the survival of many health establishments or at least to the continuation of their original project. This thesis addresses the issue of sustainability factors in health organizations. It is based on the longitudinal case study of a private psychiatric establishment founded in 1943 which is responsible for public psychiatry in the eastern sector of the Canton of Vaud, while it practices a policy of care which refers to psychoanalysis, against the current references in psychiatry which are rather neurosciences and cognitive-behavioural treatments (CBT). Following the principles of the clinical approach, a global approach of the organization is realized to understand the dynamics of the functioning of this institution and its particular make-together. In this perspective, the analysis focuses on everyday practices, both from the point of view of care (clinical practices) and management (management practices), also taking into account the historical dimension of the institution but also of the environment and psychiatry. 3 inter-related elements emerge from this analysis as the basis of the sustainability of this establishment in a recursive dynamic:- an affirmed philosophy of care rooted in humanist values,- the homology between clinical and management practices,- Interstitial management, i.e. the spaces of autonomy of the actors that are set up outside any structure and hierarchical and are based on relationships of trust.These 3 elements constitute the outline of an organizational model of sustainability that will have to be tested on a larger scale.

There is a high failure rate among local community-based nonprofit human service organizations in New York State, which may lead to service gaps in communities. Increasing sustainability may reduce these gaps and allow nonprofits to continue following the first leadership transition. Using McGregor's human resource theory as the guide, the purpose of this phenomenological study was to explore the relationship between leadership succession planning and how departure of founding leaders impacts the sustainability of nonprofits. Data were collected through interviews with 16 leaders that included departing founding leaders, successors, and 2 board members in 4 local community-based nonprofit human service organizations in New York State, regarding the impact of the founder's departure on (a) leadership, (b) motivation, (c) teamwork, (d) power balance, (e) work environment, and (f) organizational change. Interview data were inductively coded and analyzed using a thematic analysis procedure. The results yielded 4 thematic elements that contributed to successful outcomes: (a) strengthening accountability to balance power, (b) individual versus collaborative leadership to increase shared governance, (c) assessing and developing competencies to efficiently use human resources, and (d) ability to conceptualize change and plan for the future. The results of this research study may help to contribute to positive social change by offering the leaders of local community-based nonprofit human service organizations strategies to sustain their organizational culture during and following their first leadership transition, involving the departure of the founder, allowing the organizations to continue to contribute positively to the community.
