Social entrepreneurship initiatives have drawn attention due to the presence of structures and institutional arrangements of hybrid characteristics, sometimes closer to the business sector (business), sometimes closer to non-profit organizations (social). This work demonstrates the historical incursion that allowed us to understand the genesis of social business as a current practice in business-society relations. It seeks to foster the debate about the social and business in order to advance in the discussions of these relationships that occur in the organizational practices of impact business (NI). In this sense, the research presented here is part of the field of critical cultural studies, presenting a part of research based on the Grounded Theory (Glaser; Strauss, 1967). An internet search was carried out, following daily for 36 months, news, articles and new utterances on the terms “negócio social”, “social business” and “negócios de impacto”. The results critically discuss the processes of rationalization and modernization generated from the social production of hybrid organizational identities. The historical panorama of the impact sector that was outlined in the research, evidenced the socioeconomic trajectory of “social business” and, serving as a methodological resource, allowed us to envision the imbrication (social-business) as a historical change. The imbrication between social and business is shown as innovation in business practice and evidences a cultural paradigm that has been built over the last 75 years. It should be highlighted that such changes are directly influenced by Global Development Governance (GGD). The new business practices, based on social business, are the ultimate expression of this paradigm and this cultural change results in new types of business. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Based on the biography of Katherine Johnson, a space scientist linked to the American Space Agency, this article seeks to analyze the form of inclusion/exclusion in organizations, based on Niklas Luhmann's Systems Theory, raising discussions about the intersectional feminist perspective as a possible way of understanding the fragility of the theory that does not explain why, even though they have the means of inclusion, and even as members of the organization, women, especially black women, are excluded. We opted for intersectional feminist critical theory because it allows us to abandon simplistic analyses and break away from the discourse of the "universal woman", which disregards the intersecting oppressions of race, class and gender. To this end, as the research is part of the theoretical field, we adopted the approach of feminist critical theory with the literary review technique, using the theorist Kimberlé Crenshaw as a reference. The results show that intersectional feminist theory is a possible way of understanding the fragility of systems theory, as it fails to take into account the complexity and contingency of intersectionality, transforming the idea of women into a universal figure.

The social and work context in contemporary organizations is permeated by psychological domination and affective management mechanisms, which can be observed in human resources practices that emphasize a way of working with emotions that become a source of control and dominance. These relationships end up compromising the individual’s well-being and causing suffering. In the control of affections, joy tends to be instrumentalized. The individual is encouraged to develop an enthusiastic love for the organization and stimulated by organizational discourse, make it the reason for his life. This study aims to undertake, based on the approach between philosophy and organizational studies, a psychosocial critique of work relations in contemporary organizations, having as its guiding thread the affection of joy, as understood by Espinosa, which serves as our inspiration to better understand this affection. Methodologically, it consists of a theoretical essay, where interdisciplinary discussions from the organizational studies, psychosociology, and philosophy fields, particularly involving Spinoza’s contributions, are intertwined to awaken a critical look at the instrumentalization and manipulation of joy in the organizational context. Joy is seen as a source of intelligent combat, which opposes destructiveness, a source of increasing the individual’s power of action. Such reflections problematized joy both as a power of resistance, capable of helping to confront psychological domination in the world of work and as an object of instrumentalization and control. Furthermore, it was possible to understand joy as a potentializing affection for those who intend to expand their capacity for action and live their lives intensely despite the social determinisms and psychic records that constitute us. New critical research can contribute to giving way to joy not as a manipulation mechanism but as the potential for the possibilities of freedom in hypermodern management. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In Chile, transparency has become a prevalent topic in social and organizational discussions during a period of diminished institutional trust. This article identifies the meaning it carries for Chilean organizations through semi-structured interviews with 11 directors from public and private organizations. There are concentrated efforts to instrumentalize the concept from a legal perspective, as reflected in their communication strategies. However, this study suggests adding the relational dimension to contribute to the conceptualization of transparency from a communicational standpoint. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This essay aims to analyze the historical context of the forms of organization of production as a fundamental and structuring element of all the dynamics of organizations and society, as well as a factor that influenced organizational relationships, with social repercussions in people's lifestyle. This construct analyzes the forms of organization of production from the pre-industrial, through the massification of industrial society until reaching the diversified possibilities, called post-industrial in this essay -, understanding the contradictions of each historical macroperiod, without any pretension to define these periods as closed "boxes".

This study aimed to analyze the moderating role of Resilience (R) in the relationship between Organizational Spirituality (OS) and Burnout Syndrome (BOS) in call center operators. The quantitative methodology of the research type included a sample of 512, and the data were collected and analyzed from the Structural Equation Modeling. The results showed a negative relationship between OS and BOS. It was also shown that the perception of perseverance and self-confidence (dimensions of resilience) significantly moderated the association between the two constructs, reducing their effects. The present study contributes to science by improving the Burnout measurement tool, including the Optimism dimension in the validated scale, and reinforcing the moderating role of resilience.

This research aims to empirically reveal practices of violence in its various types: physical, psychological, and sexual in companies in Medellín, Colombia. The originality of the work lies in contrasting perceptions of operational and management personnel in sectors little studied. The research design was mixed, using a questionnaire and interviews applied to a sample of 858 workers, using descriptive statistics and discourse analysis. The main findings were that: the working conditions are generally good; 25% of the cases experienced violence at work, and in some cases, there was a lack of respect for human dignity and continuation of tasks at home. A high percentage of the population experienced side effects such as physical exhaustion, mental saturation, and muscular tension. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The goal of this study was to add evidence of validity for the Creative Potential at Work Scale, by investigating the influences of variables related to the subject (sex, age, level of education) and the organizational environment (length of time in the company) on test results. The reliability of the instrument was also examined using the test and retest method. Participants in the study were 371 employees employed in small to large companies with a mean age of 33.1 years. There was no significant relationship between any of the variables and the two factors of the instrument (blocks and barriers to creativity; attributes and characteristics that promote creativity). There were only three significant interactions in the study (sex x age for Factor 1; education x age for Factor 1; age x time for Factor 2). In this study, reliability was found to be adequate (r=.650 for Factor 1 and r=.729 for Factor 2). The instrument should be investigated further to determine its other psychometric properties.

Organizations have shown an interest in socio-emotional competencies due to the current knowledge that they are as important as technical competencies for the best personal and professional development. However, there is no consensus in the literature regarding the conceptual definition of these competencies. Accordingly, this narrative review aimed at characterizing the concept of socio-emotional competencies and the instruments used in Brazilian and international studies in the context of organizations and work. The Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar and Biblioteca Brasileira de Teses e Dissertações databases were consulted, resulting in 26 articles composing the sample. The results show that there is a myriad of concepts about socioemotional competencies, and that the instruments used evaluate mainly emotional intelligence, personality and other more consolidated constructs in the literature. The impacts of the multiple possibilities of conceptualizing and measuring socioemotional competences are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The objective of this review article was to address the different advances in gender equality practices in organizations in three Latin American countries. It highlights the value of gender equality programs or initiatives that position the commitment of organizations to human rights, decent work and social justice. However, there are challenges within organizational culture in the implementation, monitoring and evaluation of those programs. This article emphasizes the importance of making a multidimensional understanding and anchoring between individual processes, organizational practices and organizational culture in order to eliminate discriminatory norms and exclusion practices generated by the various biases and gender stereotypes that are reproduced within organizations on issues such as work-family reconciliation, exercise of leadership, workload, remuneration and lack of knowledge about gender.

This study addresses the historical origin and development of third-sector organizations; the areas and types of social activities performed by social organizations making a contextualization of public policies that address this issue; and the social and economic importance of the third sector. The objective is to analyze the social and economic contributions of the third sector in the execution of projects with public resources and to show that the third sector has consolidated itself as an alternative and response to the crisis of the social welfare state, constituting itself in the provision of services fulfilling its social role before civil society. The methodology used was documental and descriptive analysis, with data collection obtained from documents from bodies such as IBGE and IPEA, through the qualitative method. For this, an approach was carried out by weaving concepts, informing the areas of greatest performance, and showing that the third sector has played a strategic role in acting in areas of public policy in Brazil. The study indicates that the publicprivate partnership made through the execution of public policies by the organizations of the third sector reflected positively on social indicators, showing improvements in the areas of education, health, and social assistance, and reflecting on the growth of the economy, as evidenced by the growth of the Gross Domestic Product, and with the projection of good results and efficiency.

The objective of this article is to analyze the conceptions on Quality of Work Life (QWL) in organizations through the review of different studies found in specialized databases during the last 10 years. The study is a descriptive systematic review (SR) of literature, following the guidelines of the PRISMA statement. In total, 63 articles from the ScienceDirect, SciELO, Dialnet and Redalyc databases were reviewed and analyzed, addressing the conceptions about QWL in organizations. It can be concluded that the QWL is considered a relatively new category of analysis that presents a variety of operational definitions, which are by themselves insufficient to articulate theoretical models under a single perspective. Thus, it is paramount to continue doing research on QWL, to expand and support a clearer understanding of the topic through empirical study, since this category can lead to the humanization of jobs and to improve the dignity of employees.

We present a theoretical essay on the relationship between accounting goodwill and the premises of appreciative inquiry (AI). We also adopt a new approach to goodwill, characterizing it as a state of potential wealth that will be converted into real wealth in the future. This essay introduces analyses and inquiries that will help deepen reflections on this very controversial topic in accounting literature. We ask if the interactions recommended in what some authors call the "positive revolution" might be responsible for generating superior earnings in organizations. Considering people's best experiences, can the environment provided by AI be directly related to the goodwill we postulate? The lack of consensus on the nature of goodwill and the recent debates that have returned to the agenda of standard-setters create the opportunity for new critical reflections and epistemological debate on the topic.

The objective text is to understand the work experiences of public servants in the context of changes in managerial models, in the light of psychodynamic work (PDT). Developed a qualitative study of the Secretary of the Government of the State of Ceará. Two foram servers interviewed. Foi used the technique to analyze two nuclei of meaning (ANS) for understanding narratives. As a result, the themes and sub-themes identified and analyzed foram: i) changes in the PDT context dimensions: work conditions, work organization and social relations of work; ii) changes in content dimensions: work and subjectivity; prazer-sofrimento; defense strategies; reconhecimento. In an outstanding way, I perceive that a work-subjectivity relationship emerges in an intense way from two little subjects singularities; where the subjectivities are transformed in relation to work and have space, including, for possible leaks, by means of work, of doors originated outside the work environment, such as not mourning, for example.

In this article, we present an excerpt of research on freedom of expression carried out with workers from seven organizations. Based on the theoretical contributions of the binomial Communication and Work, Ergology and Sociology of work, we seek to understand how workers experience individual expression. Data were collected through a questionnaire that covered topics such as personal presentation, free speech, right to criticism, moral harassment, discrimination, artistic and religious expression. The results indicate that there is a significant lack of knowledge about the rules established for individual expression. Furthermore, individual expression is modulated by the need for communication in contemporary management practices and by the limits established by organizations, incorporated by workers.

The present study analyses the relationship between engagement and quality of life in educational establishment officials in the regions of Maule and Ñuble in Chile. The study used two instruments: an adaptation of the Quality of Work Life Questionnaire, and the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES 17), which measures people’s levels of engagement with work activities. 241 Chilean officials from 8 educational establishments participated in the study. The questionnaires were completed virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The results show a tendency to positively value the quality of work life and engagement indicators, as well as a high correlation between the two variables. In conclusion, the relationship between these variables is important for furthering organisational development within educational institutions. It could also lead to the development of human resources management policies focused on a balance between personal and organisational needs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
