Resumo: | Abstract The purpose of this article is to contribute to the building of management knowledge in higher education organizations as well as to evaluate its effectiveness in the light of the leadership approach as a catalyst element for institutional and strategic management results. The concept of management in the sphere of education is quite recent (Laranja, 2004; Souza, 2005). Such a late concern reflects the predominance of the thought on education management which claims that any person is able to manage ‘education companies’ (Catani & Giglioli, 2004). However, a need to train leaders for such a purpose is widely verified. Aiming to accomplish the purpose of this research, a literature review was undertaken using national and international works. Then an analysis and a development of the theme were conducted, under the perspective that higher education organizations need to be analyzed from the standpoint of management and in an interdisciplinary way. The leaderships of ‘education companies’ have occupied positions that involve actions not only in the sphere of teaching, but also of management, finance, interrelations, and towards the surrounding communities as well. The relevance of this study lies in the systematization of the knowledge found in the literature, and in providing a means of stimulating reflection, and further action, on the existent strategies in higher education organizations and on the manager’s role as central in the organization. Keywords: Leadership, Strategy, Higher Education Organizations, Education Management. |

The Debate on Leadership in Higher Education Organizations: throwing light on Management at “Education Companies”A Liderança em Organizações Educacionais: Jogando Luz sobre a Administração em “Empresas do Ensino”Abstract The purpose of this article is to contribute to the building of management knowledge in higher education organizations as well as to evaluate its effectiveness in the light of the leadership approach as a catalyst element for institutional and strategic management results.

A concepção da gestão no âmbito educacional é bastante recente (Laranja, 2004; Souza, 2005). Essa preocupação tardia reflete um predomínio do pensamento sobre a Administração no âmbito escolar de que qualquer pessoa poderia administrar “empresas do ensino” (Catani & Giglioli, 2004), quando o que se constata é a necessidade de capacitar as lideranças para tal fim. Para o alcance do propósito deste estudo, foi desenvolvida revisão bibliográfica em obras nacionais e internacionais e posterior análise da temática, tendo como premissa que as organizações educacionais precisam ser analisadas, do ponto de vista da gestão, de forma interdisciplinar. As lideranças de “empresas do ensino” vêm assumindo funções que envolvem ações, não apenas no âmbito pedagógico, mas também administrativo, financeiro, inter-relacional e com as comunidades do entorno. Tal estudo é relevante por sistematizar o conhecimento encontrado na literatura e por estimular a reflexão para posterior ação sobre as estratégias existentes nas instituições de ensino, como também sobre o papel da liderança. Esta é uma temática de interesse central ao ambiente acadêmico por envolver justamente quem nele transita.Universidade Federal da Paraíba2013-04-07info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por Paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufpb.br/index.php/tpa/article/view/1253510.21714/2238-104X2012v2i2-12535Theory and Practice in Administration - TPA; Vol. 2 No. 2 (2012): Jul/Dez; 1-26Teoria e Prática em Administração; v. 2 n. 2 (2012): Jul/Dez; 1-262238-104Xreponame:Teoria e Prática em Administraçãoinstname:Universidade Federal da Paraíba (UFPB)instacron:UFPBporhttps://periodicos.ufpb.br/index.php/tpa/article/view/12535/9020Takahashi, Adriana Roseli WunschSarsur, Amyra Moyzesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2020-08-24T13:59:32Zoai:periodicos.ufpb.br:article/12535Revistahttps://periodicos.ufpb.br/index.php/tpaPUBhttps://periodicos.ufpb.br/index.php/tpa/oaipjacome@sti.ufpb.br || tpa@ccsa.ufpb.br || marcelodesouzabispo@gmail.com || periodicos.ufpb@gmail.com2238-104X2238-104Xopendoar:2020-08-24T13:59:32Teoria e Prática em Administração - Universidade Federal da Paraíba (UFPB)false |
