Caros colegas,

 

Na próxima semana realizar-se-á o próximo Seminário em Engenharia e Gestão do CEG-IST com a seguinte referência:

 

Data: 27 de Fevereiro de 2008, 14.00-15.00
Localização, sala: Campus IST Taguspark, Anfiteatro A5
Apresentador: Rodrigo Magalhães (Kuwait-Maastricht Business School, Kuwait) 
Título do seminário: "Engenharia e Desenho Organizacional: o nexo do impacto das TI, dos novos desenhos organizacionais e do design science"

Resumo: This presentation is aimed at proposing Organizational Design and Engineering, a new research/intervention programme inspired on design science, as the way forward in achieving the levels of agility and change that organizations require in the Knowledge Economy. Organizational engineering as a concept and a field of study has already been proposed before (Tribolet & Sousa, 2004; Braun et al, 2005), mainly inspired by the fields of computer science and systems engineering. It is a third wave of the attempts to bring the technique and methods of engineering to the realm of organizations (the first being Taylor's scientific management and the second Hammer's business reengineering). However, the notion of organizational design has been left out of this third wave. In this presentation it is suggested that this omission might drive organizational engineering to the same unsuccessful fate as previous attempts. Organizational design brings the strategic and behavioural dimensions which are lacking in the current formulations of organizational engineering. Building on these premises, it is proposed that ODE should concern itself with supporting the imperatives of the new organizational designs: integration, agility and change. Inspired by the tenets of design science, it is suggested that ODE should make use of the combined knowledge of computer engineering and organization science. While engineering can offer rigour in organizational modelling, human-centered organizational design can offer relevance in implementation.

 

Os seminários do CEG-IST são de acesso livre.

 

Melhores cumprimentos
