Os fluxos de fronteira no campo da transferência de conhecimentos em consultoria de gestão

Autoria SCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

Resumo:

Numa retrospetiva histórica, embora a literatura existente apelide o setor de consultoria de gestão como um setor extraordinário e um fenómeno único no contexto empresarial, na verdade estas afirmações não vêm acompanhadas por um número de estudos académicos que realcem a importância do trabalho efetivo dos consultores de gestão. Para combater a falta de estudos nesta área emergente, este artigo visa perceber as implicações do fluxo de fronteira ao nível da transferência de informação e conhecimentos dos consultores de gestão para as suas empresas cliente. Os resultados da análise empírica sob a forma de entrevistas semiestruturadas e questionários aplicados a consultores de gestão e gestores de PME em Portugal demonstram que o fator competência deve ser alicerçado às quatro famílias de saberes da gestão empresarial – o saber-saber, o saber-empreender, o saber-fazer e o saber-ser, sendo que só a partir desta conjugação se podem desbloquear quaisquer tipos de constrangimentos (sejam estes de carácter político, físico ou cultural) que possam vir a ser encontrados pelo caminho.

Consultant 1	To assess consultant would introduce there the variable competence.	1.1	1.1.4
Consultant 6	So he separated the next. From the point of view of the practices on the one hand there is the competence aspect of the consultant personally, and good procedural practices. If we look at the variable of competencies, then there I believe an excellent power of communication.	1.1	1.1.5
Consultant 3	Then we enter the various subject areas of the company. That is why we have the quality systems, which the company usually does not have, feel this need, or through the market, or through the strategy, or through its positioning, to bring and acquire this set of skills. So you get someone who can do that work.	1.0
Manager 3	Then what is more normal, that they bring us the skills that we do not develop internally.	1.0
Manager 2	We can see if there are any flaws. And from there if we detect a fault we lose confidence. So above all in this type of projects, effectively the competence and technical capabilities for safety.	1.1	1.1.5
Manager 6	Therefore, what could improve was without doubt a better use of people's competence and focus specifically on those areas where they are experts.	1.4	1.4.1

Consultant 1	Of course there are some constraints that arise, even if you can not consider them as barriers. The way you approach a given problem with the customer or how the data is exposed may in some way create some problem, now constraints related to physical barriers do not exist. The presence of the consultant for example in the company is agreed with each client. If, for example, there are meetings. In cultural terms there have never been any problems ... That is, there is always a need to adapt to the client.	I.2	I.2.3
Consultant 3	At the level of organizational culture and knowledge culture, there may also be obstacles here. That is, I transmitted a certain message, and by the cultural level of the person and the knowledge of it is not properly understood, and therefore, we will have a skewed result. These kinds of constraints exist with some frequency ... But I would say it's all a matter of message.	I.2	I.2.3
Consultant 4	This does not know if it damages the flow of information, because it depends on the culture of the organization itself. Above all, the consultant has to be a flexible person, who knows very well who is on the other side.	I.2	I.2.3
Consultant 6	From the cultural point of view, I think it is up to the consultant to adapt himself to the local culture. Either he has this ability or there will be constraints	I.2	I.2.3
Manager 4	The result does not believe it is affected. But there are several anecdotes about the consultant. This is always seen as someone coming in from the outside, but I do not think it has any influence in terms of providing information.	I.2	I.2.3
Manager 5	Using the analogy that if people do not speak the same language is very complicated (culture).	I.2	I.2.3
Manager 1	Cultural barriers I do not think so. There is a lack of knowledge of our business. Because each client has a specificity.	I.2	I.2.3
