Resumo: | This essay aims at an objective and critical characterization of management. It is objective because it is based on the barriers that the organizational situation puts up against the manager’s actions, which seek to achieve measurable results demanded by the stakeholders. It is critical because, without forgetting human subjectivity, it does not require the ideas of formalism or rationality in the construction of the concept of management. It is also critical because it reformulates the definition problem to one of characterization, overcomes limitations of previous good attempts, and leaves room for new contributions. The adopted method was the critical concept analysis. This means to examine the extant literature and then compare it to other relevant literature. Illustrative hypothetical situations also help to clarify issues in concept construction. The main contribution is to put together the managers’ responsibilities and his power over resources and stakeholders as means to achieve results essential to the very constitution and reproduction of the organization. From this network of social responsibilities would then come out the manager’s power and its limitations. |

Objetiva, porque baseada na resistência que a situação organizacional opõe à atuação do administrador na busca dos resultados mensuráveis, cobrados pelos interlocutores da organização. Crítica, porque, sem desprezar a subjetividade humana, não recorre ao formalismo, nem à noção de racionalidade na construção do conceito de administração. Crítica, também, porque reformula o problema de definição para um de caracterização, supera limitações de boas tentativas anteriores e deixa uma concepção aberta a novas contribuições. O método adotado foi o da análise crítica de conceitos a partir do confronto da literatura dedicada ao tema e desta com outras relevantes e seu exame via situações hipotéticas ilustrativas. A principal contribuição é conjugar as responsabilidades do administrador e seu poder sobre os recursos e interlocução como meios para alcançar resultados vitais à própria constituição e reprodução da organização. Da rede de responsabilidades sociais viriam então o poder do administrador e suas limitações.Escola Brasileira de Administração Pública e de Empresas da Fundação Getulio Vargas2014-06-12info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/8865Cadernos EBAPE.BR; Vol. 12 No. 2 (2014); 206 a 220Cadernos EBAPE.BR; Vol. 12 Núm. 2 (2014); 206 a 220Cadernos EBAPE.BR; v. 12 n. 2 (2014); 206 a 2201679-3951reponame:Cadernos EBAPE.BRinstname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/8865/23793Nascimento, Paulo Tromboni de Souzainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2016-10-10T17:37:38Zoai:ojs.periodicos.fgv.br:article/8865Revistahttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebapehttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/oaicadernosebape@fgv.br||cadernosebape@fgv.br1679-39511679-3951opendoar:2024-05-13T09:59:46.128368Cadernos EBAPE.BR - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)true |
