- Boas práticas de gestão de recursos humanos na hotelaria: um estudo exploratório no contexto portuguêsPublication . Martins, Dora; Silva, SusanaEste estudo caracteriza as práticas de gestão de recursos humanos que são mais comummente promovidas procurando, também, conhecer o grau de intervenção que o gestor de recursos humanos tem na disseminação dessas práticas. Os dados foram recolhidos a partir de inquéritos por questionários realizados a uma amostra de 33 unidades hoteleiras localizadas em Portugal. Os resultados mostram que as práticas de Gestão de Recursos Humanos mais comuns são: contratação; comunicação e partilha da informação; formação profissional; higiene e segurança no trabalho; integração e acolhimento; e recrutamento e seleção. Estes resultados sugerem que as unidades hoteleiras portuguesas estão a utilizar práticas de gestão de recursos humanos congruentes com as que a literatura designa como boas práticas de gestão de recursos humanos. Baseado nos resultados, este artigo discute as principais implicações teóricas e práticas. Sugestões para futura pesquisa são também apresentadas.

- A competing values framework approach on growth and performance in micro firmsPublication . Rodrigues, Ana C.; Caetano, AntónioThis study aims to analyze and compare four micro-firms' organizational culture, evaluated through the Competing Values Framework (Quinn & Rohbaugh, 1983). Data was collected in 2011 and 2013 in firms selling the same type of software and providing the same kind of services, focusing on the years between 2008-2011. Findings point to somewhat different results of micro-firms, when comparing to other samples in the literature. Suggestions for future research are given.
- Contributions for best practices in social recruitment: pilot study in the Northern Region of PortugalPublication . Silva, Marlene; Gomes, RuiRecruitment is based on a conglomerate of techniques and procedures put in place to attract qualified. The recruitment process has suffered changes, becoming even more sophisticated, involving a whole organisation and a whole community. A new source of recruitment has emerged with the use of online social networks using facilitators in its development and usage, allowing the search for candidates to be fast, cheap and "global". In Portugal, the information available and studies conducted into this phenomenon are still irrelevant, with little reported on the importance of online social recruitment. The purpose of this article is to contribute to what is understood by the professional process of recruitment through online social media by recruitment companies in the Northern Region of Portugal, analysing the use of online media by recruitment professionals, facilitator support tools and the associated best practices.
- Determinant factors of turnover versus permanence of portuguese repatriates: an exploratory studyPublication . Martins, Dora; Rego, Arménio; Proença, TeresaThe study seeks to identify the determinant factors of the repatriate’s decision to remain or leave the company after repatriation, in a convenience sample of 40 Portuguese returnees working in companies based in Portugal. The main results were as follows: (1) there are seven factor categories: (a) salaries and benefits; (b) possibility of promotion, development, professional development; (c) organizational support (during and after the international mission) recognition of work; (d) economic and social atmosphere of the company, (e) good relationship with leadership; (f) convenience and/or personal / family well-being and; (g) external alternatives; (2) the main factors leading to permanence are (a) possibility of promotion, development and professional development and; (b) the existence of personal and family well-being / convenience; (3) the main factors leading to abandonment are (a) lack of organizational support and recognition of work performed; (b) lack of possibility of promotion, development and professional development and; (c) lack of personal / family well-being / convenience. Globally, the study suggests that the factors leading to permanence are very similar to those that lead to abandonment, although in reverse.
- El cambio del perfil del profesional de recursos humanos en PortugalPublication . Martins, Dora; Silva, Susana; Costa, ElgaEl presente estudio pretende caracterizar el perfil de los profesionales responsables por la gestión de recursos humanos, en concreto su perfil académico, las funciones que ocupan y los requisitos demandados por las empresas portuguesas que pretenden admitir a nuevos profesionales para asumir funciones en el ámbito de la gestión de personas. Este estudio está basado en una encuesta por cuestionario realizado a una muestra de 261 responsables de recursos humanos de empresas ubicadas en Portugal (133 fueron encuestados en 2004, 128 fueron encuestados en 2013). En paralelo, fueron analizados 78 anuncios publicados en 2014 para identificar el perfil requerido en la actualidad. Los resultados muestran que, durante los últimos 10 años, la gran parte de los profesionales responsables por la gestión de recursos humanos asumen papeles específicos relacionados con los recursos humanos (RH). La calificación superior en RH empieza logrando más importancia en 2013, cuando se compara con otras áreas de calificación superior (ej. Gestión, Derecho e Ingeniería) prevalecientes en 2004. Las vacantes disponibles en anuncios relacionados con la función de RH buscan, sobretodo, candidatos (1) para asumir el cargo de técnico de RH, (2) que posean calificación superior en las áreas de RH o Ciencias Sociales y (3) que detengan competencias personales e interpersonales, así como competencias lingüísticas e informáticas. Basado en estos resultados, el artículo discute en detalle las principales implicaciones teóricas y prácticas. Sugestiones de investigación futura son, de igual modo, presentadas.
- O empreendedorismo como opção de (re)inserção profissionalPublication . Martins, DoraEste artigo procura evidenciar o empreendedorismo enquanto mecanismo de resposta à (re)inserção social, entendido enquanto necessidade ou oportunidade. Para além da apresentação do empreendedorsimo enquanto opção individual, destaca-se o papel que as universidades e institutos politécnicos devem assumir no desenvolvimento do espírito empreendedor no cluster dos recém-licenciados.
- Expatriate assignments and career outcomes: career development of portuguese repatriatesPublication . Martins, Dora; Carvalho, Susana; Silva, SusanaThis paper aims to study the expatriation, specifically the career management of Portuguese repatriates. The purpose of this research is to examine how the expatriate assignments may influence the professional career development upon return. This research was carried out using the quantitative methodology. The data collection was done through the application of a questionnaire to 75 repatriates belonging to organizations located in Portugal. The data collected in this study show that repatriates enhance the expatriation experience, regardless of a career progression or not, because they acquire and develop new skills, achieve a richer and more extensive functional content and assume positions with more responsibility and autonomy. The fact that repatriates plan the international assignment as part of a development career process confirms the theoretical perspectives of the new psychological contract, protean career, boundaryless career and intelligent careers. The results show that the completion of international assignments doesn’t have a direct impact on the repatriates’ career development. These findings will be discussed in detail and implications and suggestions for future research will be proposed as well.
- Expatriates’ influence on knowledge sharing: an empirical study with International portuguese companiesPublication . Martins, DoraDespite the abundant literature in knowledge management, few empirical studies have explored knowledge management in connection with international assignees. This phenomenon has a special relevance in the Portuguese context, since (a) there are no empirical studies concerning this issue that involves international Portuguese companies; (b) the national business reality is incipient as far as internationalisation is concerned, and; (c) the organisational and national culture presents characteristics that are distinctive from the most highly studied contexts (e.g., Asia, USA, Scandinavian countries, Spain, France, The Netherlands, Germany, England and Russia). We examine the role of expatriates in transfer and knowledge sharing within the Portuguese companies with operations abroad. We focus specifically on expatriates’ role on knowledge sharing connected to international Portuguese companies and our findings take into account organizational representatives’ and expatriates’ perspectives. Using a comparative case study approach, we examine how three main dimensions influence the role of expatriates in knowledge sharing among headquarters and their subsidiaries (types of international assignment, reasons for using expatriation and international assignment characteristics). Data were collected using semi‐structured interviews to 30 Portuguese repatriates and 14 organizational representatives from seven Portuguese companies. The findings suggest that the reasons that lead Portuguese companies to expatriating employees are connected to: (1) business expansion needs; (2) control of international operations and; (3) transfer and knowledge sharing. Our study also shows that Portuguese companies use international assignments in order to positively respond to the increasingly decaying domestic market in the economic areas in which they operate. Evidence also reveals that expatriation is seen as a strategy to fulfill main organizational objectives through their expatriates (e.g., business internationalization, improvement of the coordination and control level of the units/subsidiaries abroad, replication of aspects of the home base, development and incorporation of new organizational techniques and processes). We also conclude that Portuguese companies have developed an International Human Resources Management strategy, based on an ethnocentric approach, typically associated with companies in early stages of internationalization, i.e., the authority and decision making are centered in the home base. Expatriates have a central role in transmitting culture and technical knowledge from company’s headquarters to the company’s branches. Based on the findings, the article will discuss in detail the main theoretical and managerial implications. Suggestions for further research will also be presented.
- Exploring why portuguese companies expatriate, and portuguese expatriates accept international assignmentsPublication . Martins, Dora; Rego, Arménio; Proença, TeresaThis study explores (1) the reasons that lead Portuguese companies to use expatriates and (2) the motivations that led the repatriates to accepting an international assignment. Semistructured interviews were carried out on 44 individuals (14 responsible for organizational management of the expatriates and 30 repatriates), in seven international companies based in Portugal, and analysis of the thematic content was conducted for data processing. Results suggest that the reasons that lead Portuguese companies to expatriating employees are connected to business needs and the control of international operations, while individual motivations are linked to personal and professional ambition, the will to serve the company and organizational pressure. We concluded that Portuguese companies, like most European companies, seem to develop a strategy of International Human Resources Management (IHRM) according to an ethnocentric approach, characteristic to companies in early stages of internationalization. Similarly, the main motivations of Portuguese repatriates are identical to those of other expatriates, though the will to serve the company seems to be more valued by Portuguese repatriates than by expatriates from other countries.
