Resumo: | The present study experimentally researches the characteristics of toxic cultures and the proper way to detox organizations giving special emphasis to the application of the psychological safety concept at the workplace by studying its benefits. To reach that level of empirical investigation and analysis, concepts such as organizational culture, its dynamics, as well as their different tangible and intangible levels needed to be explored. These concepts are inherently connected to toxicity lived at the workplace because to work on a company detox, it is necessary to study any company’s visible layers, as well as its most deepest layers of assumptions that form its cultural DNA. Besides, other studies where toxicity was debated as a current problem in many companies were explored with the main objective to compare what have been discovered with what the interviewees from this research reported to have lived in their organizational context. The ultimate objective of this dissertation was to compare the perspective of both employees and managers on the mentioned topics, giving contours to other related questions within the theme, as a way to contribute to the measures and strategies that can help mitigate toxicity in the corporative world. Both involved groups present similarities in many circumnstances but always with different visions in mind, whereas employees are more focused on preserving their own individuality, managers observe this same individuality as a beneficial contribution not only to the personal growth of the employee, but also for the economic growth of the company itself. |

Para atingir esse nível de investigação e análise empírica, foi necessário explorar conceitos como cultura organizacional, sua dinâmica, bem como diferentes níveis tangíveis e intangíveis. Esses conceitos estão intrisecamente ligados à toxicidade vivida no ambiente de trabalho, pois para trabalhar no detox de uma empresa é necessário estudar as camadas visíveis de qualquer empresa, bem como as suas camadas mais profundas de pressupostos que formam o seu ADN cultural. Além disso, outros estudos onde a toxicidade foi debatida como um problema atual em muitas empresas foram explorados com o objectivo principal de comparar o que foi descoberto com o que os entrevistados desta pesquisa relataram ter vivido em seu contexto organizacional. O objetivo final desta dissertação foi comparar a perspectiva de colaboradores e gestores sobre os temas mencionados, dando contornos a outras questões relacionadas com estes temas, como forma de contribuir para as medidas e estratégias que podem ajudar a mitigar a toxicidade no mundo corporativo. Ambos os grupos envolvidos apresentam semelhanças em muitas circunstâncias, mas sempre com visões diferentes em mente, em que os funcionários estão mais focados em preservar a própria individualidade, enquanto que os gestores observam essa mesma individualidade como um contributo benéfico não só para o crescimento pessoal do funcionário, mas também para o crescimento económico da própria empresa.Furtado, Marco António Cerqueira MendesRepositório Científico do Instituto Politécnico do PortoCarneiro, Sandra Daniela Brito2023-11-242033-05-01T00:00:00Z2023-11-24T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.22/25010TID:203527054porinfo:eu-repo/semantics/embargoedAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-02-14T01:46:52Zoai:recipp.ipp.pt:10400.22/25010Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T02:38:09.948856Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
