O desperdício de conhecimento no centro das discussões em instituições de ensino superior: uma análise quantitativa
Conteúdo do artigo principal
Resumo
O objetivo deste artigo é avaliar o nível de desperdício de conhecimento nas instituições de ensino superior. O delineamento teórico deste trabalho foi orientado essencialmente pela escala de desperdício de conhecimento validada por Klein et al. (2023), divididos em quatro categorias: desperdício de conhecimento explícito, retenção de conhecimento tácito, superespecialização e talento subutilizado. Uma pesquisa quantitativa do tipo survey foi realizada por meio da aplicação de questionário. A população-alvo deste estudo são os funcionários das instituições de ensino superior. Obteve-se uma amostra de 837 respostas. Os dados foram analisados por meio de estatística descritiva e multivariada, aplicando-se testes t e análise de variância. Dentre os principais resultados desta pesquisa, pode-se destacar que nas instituições de ensino superior públicas há médias mais elevadas para as quatro categorias de desperdício de conhecimento estudadas. Quanto aos cargos ocupados nas instituições de ensino superior, constatou-se que os técnicos administrativos apresentaram médias mais elevadas em termos de desperdício de superespecialização e talentos subutilizados.
