Resumo: | In this qualitative and exploratory study, a measurement of alignment of competencies with corporate strategy was carried out in nine steel mills, using a methodology developed specifically for this purpose. Four companies (“big and aligned”), accounting for 86% of the steel produced in the country, indicate full alignment of competencies with their strategies. Two companies (“small and partially aligned”), represent 4% of the market and try to reconcile the corporate strategy of technological orientation with short-term operational performance imposed on them by the business environment. In contrast to the latter, three companies (“small and not aligned”), having 10% of the combined market share, primarily concern themselves with performance in terms of productivity, without having synergy with the corporate strategy. The major contribution of this work is the development of a specific methodology to operationalize the mapping of core competencies, in order to facilitate the mobilization of resources to support business strategies. |

A receita combinada das empresas na amostra representa quase todo o mercado siderúrgico brasileiro (97%). Quatro empresas ("grandes e alinhadas"), que representam 82% do aço produzido no país, indicam o alinhamento total das competências com suas estratégias. Duas empresas ("pequenas e parcialmente alinhadas") representam 4% do mercado e tentam conciliar a estratégia corporativa de orientação tecnológica com o desempenho operacional de curto prazo que lhes é imposto pelo ambiente empresarial. Em contraste com este último, três empresas ("pequenas e não alinhadas"), com 11% da quota de mercado combinada, se preocupam principalmente com o desempenho em termos de produtividade, sem ter sinergia com a estratégia corporativa. A principal contribuição deste trabalho é o desenvolvimento de uma metodologia específica para operacionalizar o mapeamento de competências essenciais, a fim de facilitar a mobilização de recursos para apoiar estratégias de negócios.Universidade Nove de Julho - UNINOVE2017-12-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uninove.br/riae/article/view/1577010.5585/ijsm.v16i4.2536Revista Ibero-Americana de Estratégia; Vol 16, No 4 (2017): October/December; 117-132Revista Ibero-Americana de Estratégia; Vol 16, No 4 (2017): October/December; 117-1322176-0756reponame:Revista Ibero Americana de Estratégia - RIAEinstname:Revista Ibero-Americana de Estratégia (RIAE)instacron:RIEOEIenghttps://periodicos.uninove.br/riae/article/view/15770/7717Copyright (c) 2017 Iberoamerican Journal of Strategic Managementhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPorto, Ualace Carvalho MarquesPassos, Francisco UchoaFigueiredo, Paulo Soares2020-05-19T15:00:23Zoai:https://periodicos.uninove.br:article/15770Revistahttps://periodicos.uninove.br/riaePRIhttps://periodicos.uninove.br/riae/oai||bennycosta@yahoo.com.br2176-07562176-0756opendoar:2020-05-19T15:00:23Revista Ibero Americana de Estratégia - RIAE - Revista Ibero-Americana de Estratégia (RIAE)false |
