Controle de desempenho estratégico no Banco do Brasil : um estudo de caso
Get PDFO presente trabalho aborda uma importante fronteira do conhecimento da administração moderna que é cada vez mais utilizada pelos grandes conglomerados nacionais e internacionais no processo de estabelecimento e acompanhamento das estratégias corporativas de curto, médio e longo prazo: a ferramenta Balance Scorecard. No país, dentre outras companhias, o Balanced Scorecard é utilizado pelo Banco do Brasil, empresa líder do mercado financeiro nacional, na qual o trabalho foi realizado. Ao longo do desenvolvimento do texto, apresentam-se os principais conceitos, exploram-se as novas teorias administrativas relacionadas ao tema e foca-se na teoria desenvolvida por Kaplan e Norton, principalmente as vinculadas à Administração e ao Controle Estratégico. Além de discorrer sobre esse fascinante tema da administração, o estudo avança nas práticas administrativas utilizadas pelo Banco do Brasil no controle do seu planejamento estratégico, contribuindo para melhor entendimento da teoria e da prática administrativa. Através do desenvolvimento do trabalho, percebe-se o envolvimento dos colaboradores nos processos estratégicos e o acerto do Banco do Brasil (BB) em utilizar essa ferramenta, pois desde a sua implantação, o BB vem obtendo lucros crescentes e recorrentes, mantendo a condição de principal instituição financeira da América Latina, sem deixar de promover o desenvolvimento do país
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
Políticas públicas brasileiras e a promoção da equidade e inclusão de gênero: uma análise do ODS 5 da Agenda 2030 sob a ótica da teoria de Nancy Fraser
No full textThe equity of gender is a fundamental pillar for the sustainable development and the strengthening of Democratic Rule of Law. Based on 2030 agenda of UN, especially of the SDG 5, this research seeks to answer: what public policies the has adopted to reduce gender inequalities? With a deductive approach and bibliographic-documentary method, based on theoretical assumptions about gender justice, sustainable development and the Nancy Fraser's theory of justice to critically analyze the normative and institutional actions implemented in the country. The study reveals that, despite legal and programmatic advances, structural obstacles persist, such as the absence of a budget with a gender perspective, institutional fragmentation, failures in inspection and the resistance to the incorporation of the gender agenda as a transversal axis. It is concluded that the implementation of SDG 5 requires the institutionalization of gender transversality in all phases of the public policy cycle, combined with solid intersectoral governance and coordinated engagement between the State, private sector and civil society. To overcome structural inequalities, it is essential to promote lasting changes based on substantive social justice, which guarantee the full and equal participation of women in the formulation, implementation and evaluation of public policies.A equidade de gênero constitui um pilar fundamental para o desenvolvimento sustentável e o fortalecimento do Estado Democrático de Direito. Com base na Agenda 2030 da ONU, especialmente do ODS 5, esta pesquisa busca responder: quais políticas públicas o Brasil tem adotado para a redução das desigualdades de gênero? Com abordagem dedutiva e método bibliográfico-documental, parte-se de pressupostos teóricos sobre justiça de gênero, desenvolvimento sustentável e a teoria da justiça de Nancy Fraser para analisar criticamente as ações normativas e institucionais implementadas no país. O estudo revela que, apesar de avanços legais e programáticos, persistem entraves estruturais como a ausência de orçamento com recorte de gênero, fragmentação institucional, falhas na fiscalização e resistência à incorporação da pauta de gênero como eixo transversal. Conclui-se que a efetivação do ODS 5 exige a institucionalização da transversalidade de gênero em todas as fases do ciclo das políticas públicas, aliada a uma governança intersetorial sólida e ao engajamento coordenado entre Estado, setor privado e sociedade civil. Para superar as desigualdades estruturais, é indispensável promover mudanças duradouras baseadas na justiça social substantiva, que garantam a participação plena e igualitária das mulheres na formulação, implementação e avaliação das políticas públicas
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
