As Competências e o Plano Estratégico 2040: a concepção de um Sistema de Competências para mapeamento do perfil profissional dos Oficiais do Corpo da Armada da Marinha do Brasil egressos da Escola Naval

Abstract

ABSTRACT Considering that one of the strategic programs of the Navy’s 2040 Strategic Plan (PEM 2040) calls for personnel development by competencies, the aim of this thesis was to propose a Competency System to determine the professional profile of Brazilian Navy officers graduating from the Naval Academy. The concept of a competency system is part of the theoretical framework of Competency-Based Management, which has not yet been introduced in the organizational structure of the Brazilian Navy. The hypothesis adopted throughout the study was based on the need for a competency system which allows mapping the profile of officers graduating from the Naval Academy to fulfill the strategic objective established in 2040 PEM. It is argued that to incorporate a competency-based system, as established in the 2040 PEM, a competency system must be created to map the profile of Naval Academy graduates. The methodology used to investigate the hypothesis was of a qualitative nature, starting with the bibliographic reference, moving on to documentary analysis, and content analysis of the testimony collected from interviews. The designing of a Competency System, with synergy between the various departments of the Brazilian Navy, is expected to generate a recognized and validated competency profile of Navy officers, reflecting the complex demands of the work involved.
