Resumo: | A study was undertaken in Mexico, Colombia, and El Salvador to determine the impact of a management training program on health managers' job performance. A quasi-experimental design was used where in the baseline study an intervention group of 85 district health managers in the three countries was compared with a control group of 71 managers who did not receive the training program. After the implementation of an 18-month training program (which included 5-day training workshops and a series of tasks to be carried out between the workshops), the outcome in terms of improved job performance (i.e. use of predefined management techniques) was measured through twelve management performance indicators. The data collection tools were two questionnaires, participant observation in managers' workplaces, focus group discussions, staff interviews, and document analysis. In Mexico, the control group showed 8.3 times weaker management performance compared to the intervention group; in Colombia the value was 3.6 and in El Salvador 2.4. Factors associated with a successful training outcome were: (a) training techniques, (b) strengthening of enabling factors, and (c) reinforcement mechanisms. |

El diseño del estudio fue quasi-experimental (no-randomizado) comparando dos grupos: el grupo de intervención con 85 gerentes en los tres países que recibieron la capacitación y, el grupo control con 71 gerentes que no recibieron la capacitación. Después de ejecutar el programa de enseñanza de 18 meses de duración (el cual incluyó talleres de cinco días de duración y compromisos), el mejoramiento en el desempeño fue medido utilizando 12 indicadores. Los resultados mostraron que, en México, el grupo control mostró 8.3 veces más debilidades en el desempeño que el grupo de intervención; en Colombia, el valor fue 3.6 y en El Salvador 2.4 veces mayor. Factores asociados con el éxito de los resultados del programa de capacitación fueron: (a) las técnicas de enseñanza utilizadas, (b) el fortalecimiento de factores asociados con el buen desempeño y, (c) mecanismos de refuerzo.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2004-08-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/2204Reports in Public Health; Vol. 20 No. 4 (2004): July/AugustCadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 20 n. 4 (2004): Julho/Agosto1678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZenghttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/2204/4397https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/2204/4398Díaz-Monsalve, Sonia Janethinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-03-06T15:26:54Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/2204Revistahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csphttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/oaicadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br||cadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br1678-44640102-311Xopendoar:2024-03-06T13:02:35.854973Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true |
