Abstract(s)
Este projeto tem por base um problema identificado num mega
agrupamento de um concelho do grande porto, criado em junho de 2012, e
que se centra nas dificuldades de gestão e liderança de uma organização
resultante da agregação de duas unidades com culturas organizacionais
distintas.
Na perspetiva de conhecermos e compreendermos o problema e
respondermos ao nosso questionamento, optamos por uma metodologia
qualitativa seguindo o método de um estudo de caso.
No estudo empírico, cuja técnica de recolha foi um focus group,
recolheram-se as perceções dos professores das unidades agregadas sobre a
criação da nova organização, sobre o impacto nas identidades e culturas
organizacionais, sobre a forma da procura de uma coesão no respeito pela
diversidade e identificaram-se os quadros de referência das escolas que se
agregaram. O estudo realizado permite reconhecer que as dificuldades ao
nível da gestão e liderança se confinam mais na escola que perdeu a
centralidade e que se sente numa posição periférica.
Na elaboração do plano de ação recuperámos e valorizámos a ideia de que
um modelo de liderança baseado em valores poderia ser um caminho para a
unidade. Neste sentido o plano de ação, com base em alguns princípios de
atuação e definição de estratégias tenta dar resposta à questão de partida e
em congruência com um modelo de liderança por valores.
This project is based on a problem which was identified in a mega cluster in a county of Oporto that was built in June 2012, and is focused on the difficulties of management and leadership of an organization which was the aftermath of an aggregation of two units with distinct organizational cultures. In the perspective of knowing and understanding the problem, and responding to our own questioning, we decided on a qualitative methodology, following the technique of a case study. In the empirical study, whose process of collecting data was a focus group, the perceptions were taken from the teachers coming from the two aggregated units about the creation of the new organization, about the impact caused in the identities and organizational cultures, about the way of seeking cohesion in the respect for diversity, and the reference charts of the aggregated schools were also identified. The study done allows us to recognize that the difficulties concerning the management and leadership level are more confined to the school that lost its centrality and that feels itself in a peripheral position. When preparing the action plan, we recovered and valued the idea that a model of leadership based on values could lead to unity. In this way the action plan, based on some principles of performance, tries to give an answer to the initial question and agreeing with a model of leadership through values.
