A aplicação de práticas da gestão do conhecimento para elaboração de um programa de formação de sucessores na Marinha do Brasil

Abstract

The departure of a person from the organization, holder of critical knowledge, can jeopardize the achievement of its main objectives, especially those considered strategic, if it does not have people prepared to assume the position left vacant, as the succession of people in organizations always will occur, planned or not. The present work has the objective of elaborating a succession plan for the Military Organizations of the Brazilian Navy, aiming at the retention of critical organizational knowledge through Knowledge Management (KM) practices. For this, a bibliographic review about KM was carried out, analysis of succession planning in organizations from different segments and also a research in Navy organizations. Based on these activities, a proposal for structuring a succession plan composed of five stages was elaborated, which sought to identify critical positions, the risk of knowledge loss and propose KM practices that facilitate the retention of critical organizational knowledge.
