Engajamento institucional: um estudo sobre o engajamento dos colaboradores da Rede Jesuíta de Educação – RJE

Abstract

People management must act as a strategic component aimed at the planned use of approaches specific to the institution's employees in order to contribute to the implementation of the organization's strategies. This study analyzes what are the determining factors in the engagement of collaborators from schools of the Jesuit Education Network (JEN), and suggests an improvement plan. Based on a study with the participation of four hundred and eighty-seven respondents, some of whom consider themselves in a leadership position, which was carried out in two stages. Using a quantitative and qualitative method, data were collected through document analysis, survey and interviews with some directors of the Jesuit Education Network (JEN). The results indicated that JEN employees feel engaged in their work. They also indicated that the feeling of belonging makes the difference to reach a greater objective, which is the mission of the Society of Jesus. Finally, this research presents recommendations, such as highlighting the area of people management, making internal communication clearer and more effective, among others.
