Evaluation of the guess project results (global student entrepreneurship survey) in the context of the influence of primary career experience on graduate choice (international aspect)

The purpose of the article is to evaluate the results of the GUESSS project in the context of building career plans for students. The GUESSS project explores the entrepreneurial spirit of students globally and spans 54 countries around the world. The materials of the project are used to carry out scientific works and publications in the world’s leading journals. Entrepreneurship has become an important part of the learning process. The development of students’ entrepreneurial skills is of great importance at the present stage. OECD countries take into account and develop their youth entrepreneurship programs based on projects like GUESSS. Current labor market trends are destroying utopian models of “well-paid” jobs in a global competitive environment. Digitalization, the economy of smart cities, sustainable development and shared consumption, new trends in healthcare, retail, mass communications and tourism create new opportunities for the development of private entrepreneurship. In the study of the career preferences of students from different countries, one can consider the general tendencies characteristic of modern youth. The article assesses the career preferences of five different countries that are very different in terms of GDP, demographic and socio-cultural characteristics. The assessment of changes in the career preferences of students immediately after graduation and five years after gaining career experience is carried out.

Managers as Insiders or Outsiders to Public Organizations

The heart of public management is that the public sector context matters in ways that generic management research typically neglects. Generic management scholarship has found that the degree of match between top managers’ career experience and the characteristics of their current organizations creates managerial fit or misfit. However, public sector management adds the insight of “publicness fit” and the empirical finding that managers appointed from outside of public organizations tend to have shorter tenures, and in some contexts, weaker performance than managers with experience managing inside public organizations. This chapter reviews the current state of research on managerial publicness fit. First, the publicness fit on dimensions of public ownership, funding, and regulation is presented and a systematic review of broader studies of managerial fit for their relevance to the topic is given. Then, review evidence on publicness “insider/outsider” fit and its consequences for the public sector is offered. The third section concludes with an agenda for integrating publicness fit with the other dimensions of managerial fit identified in the review.

A influência parental na carreira de jovens atletas de Ginástica Artística (The parental influence on the career of young Artistic Gymnastics)

Uma das manifestações mais conhecidas da Ginástica Artística é a sua manifestação competitiva. Compreendendo sua iniciação, geralmente, com crianças de pouca idade, o envolvimento e apoio dos pais torna-se um dos requisitos fundamentais no desenvolvimento do potencial esportivo, permanência e, principalmente, no bem-estar psicológico.

Participaram cinco pais de atletas que competiram no Campeonato Estadual e Brasileiro de Ginástica Artística, categoria infantil, pela Federação de Ginástica do Rio Grande do Sul, na cidade de Porto Alegre, Brasil. Como instrumento de pesquisa foi utilizada uma entrevista semiestruturada e, posteriormente, os dados foram analisados a partir da análise de conteúdo de Bardin (2011).
