Desafios da governança em organizações militares com atividades centralizadas

Abstract

ABSTRACT GOVERNANCE CHALLENGES IN MILITARY ORGANIZATIONS WITH CENTRALIZED ACTIVITIES The study aims to analyze the challenges and opportunities for improvement in the implementation of governance in military organizations with centralized administrative activities, in order to avoid conflicts between the centralizing and supported entities. Initially, theories on public governance and the governance model of the Brazilian Navy (MB) are addressed, with a focus on the role of operational managers. The research involved experts and analyzed the administrative centralization at the Ilha das Cobras Naval Base (BNIC), using bibliographic, documentary and field research. The results indicate that effective governance depends on the creation of clear guidelines and investment in training leaders and employees. Administrative centralization brought benefits such as standardization and streamlining of processes, but it also highlighted the need to balance centralization and decentralization to optimize organizational effectiveness. The main challenges identified were related to communication and the large volume of processes to be executed. The study concludes that, by identifying these challenges, it is possible to implement corrective actions to improve governance and management, benefiting the public interest.
