Dia de Orçamento. O Primeiro-ministro José Sócrates, o Ministro de Estado Pedro Silva Pereira, o Ministro de Assuntos Parlamentares, Jorge Lacão e um executivo de televisão encontraram-se à hora do almoço no restaurante de um hotel em Lisboa. Fui o epicentro da parte mais colérica de uma conversa claramente ouvida nas mesas em redor. Sem fazerem recato, fui publicamente referenciado como sendo mentalmente débil (“um louco”) a necessitar de (“ir para o manicómio”). Fui descrito como “um profissional impreparado”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Que injustiça. Eu, que dei aulas na Independente. A defunta alma mater de tanto saber em Portugal. Definiram-me como “um problema” que teria que ter “solução”. Houve, no restaurante, quem ficasse incomodado com a conversa e me tivesse feito chegar um registo. É fidedigno. Confirmei-o. Uma das minhas fontes para o aval da legitimidade do episódio comentou (por escrito): “(…) o PM tem qualidades e defeitos, entre os quais se inclui uma certa dificuldade para conviver com o jornalismo livre (…)”. É banal um jornalista cair no desagrado do poder. Há um grau de adversariedade que é essencial para fazer funcionar o sistema de colheita, retrato e análise da informação que circula num Estado. Sem essa dialéctica só há monólogos. Sem esse confronto só há Yes-Men cabeceando em redor de líderes do momento dizendo yes-coisas, seja qual for o absurdo que sejam chamados a validar. Sem contraditório os líderes ficam sem saber quem são, no meio das realidades construídas pelos bajuladores pagos. Isto é mau para qualquer sociedade. Em sociedades saudáveis os contraditórios são tidos em conta. Executivos saudáveis procuram-nos e distanciam-se dos executores acríticos venerandos e obrigados. Nas comunidades insalubres e nas lideranças decadentes os contraditórios são considerados ofensas, ultrajes e produtos de demência. Os críticos passam a ser “um problema” que exige “solução”. Portugal, com José Sócrates, Pedro Silva Pereira, Jorge Lacão e com o executivo de TV que os ouviu sem contraditar, tornou-se numa sociedade insalubre. Em 2010 o Primeiro-ministro já não tem tantos “problemas” nos media como tinha em 2009. O “problema” Manuela Moura Guedes desapareceu. O problema José Eduardo Moniz foi “solucionado”. O Jornal de Sexta da TVI passou a ser um jornal à sexta-feira e deixou de ser “um problema”. Foi-se o “problema” que era o Director do Público. Agora, que o “problema” Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa começou a ser resolvido na RTP, o Primeiro Ministro de Portugal, o Ministro de Estado e o Ministro dos Assuntos Parlamentares que tem a tutela da comunicação social abordam com um experiente executivo de TV, em dia de Orçamento, mais “um problema que tem que ser solucionado”. Eu. Que pervertido sentido de Estado. Que perigosa palhaçada.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nota: Artigo originalmente redigido para ser publicado hoje (1/2/2010) na imprensa.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

style="color: black;"&gt;Thanks Positively present!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;You know, I have a good feeling about 2010. There's something about that nice, round number that makes me feel calm, makes me think this year is going to be a really good one. When I was searching for an image to use for this post and came across the one above, I was super excited. I have high hopes for the year and the picture I found seemed to echo them perfectly. While I really am trying to live in the moment and focus on what's happening right now, I can't help but look to the future of 2010 and have hope that it's going to be an amazing year. Of course, the reason I think it's going to be an amazing year is because I plan to make it an amazing year. In 2009 I learned one thing for certain: your life is what you make it. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;Prior to last year, it was so easy for me to fall into routines and patterns, thinking that everything just happened because that's the way it went. Though of course the thought had crossed my mind, I didn't realize just how powerful my own abilities were. I didn't realize that I really could take control of my life and spend my time in ways that were productive and healthy. It was a really hard year, but it was a really great year. I learned more about myself in those 12 months than in all the 26 years that had come before them. The other day I read this quote by Charles Richards: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;"Don't be fooled by the calendar. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;There are only as many days in the year as you make use of."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;When I read that, I thought to myself, "Wow. That's really true." I thought back on the years before, all of the days I'd wasted, and then I thought of last year and how I'd done my best to make every day worthwhile. Sure, they weren't all great days and they weren't all filled with productive, positive activities, but, for the most part, I can say that I made the most of my days in 2009. Having spent a year that way, I cannot imagine going back to the way it was before, to those days I spent lying on the couch, watching TV or thinking negative thoughts. After the year I've had, I just cannot imagine going back. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;What I can imagine, however, is going forward to an awesome year in 2010. Part of me, admittedly, is a little nervous about my hopes for the year. What if 2010 isn't as great as 2009? What if I don't change and grow and learn so much, the way I did last year? What if I'm setting my expectations too high and I reach the end of the year feeling let down? This post is all about putting those "what-ifs" aside and developing a plan to make 2010 even better than 2009. With a plan in place, I just know 2010 can be -- will be -- amazing. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;How To Make 2010 Your Best Year Yet&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;Get excited. Stop and think right now about what gets you excited. If you had a day to do anything you wanted to do, what would it be? What is that thing that, when it crosses your mind, leaves you feeling so overjoyed or pumped up that you can barely sit still? Keep that thought in your mind, keep doing whatever it is that makes you that happy, and keep surrounding yourself with people who support those things that make you oh-so-excited. You need to support yourself. You need to do the things that make you the happiest. And you need to have people in your life that support your happiness. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;Get involved. Now is the time to get involved in what it is that excites you. No, not next month or later in the year. NOW. Think back to the things or activities or people that get you excited and ask yourself, "How can I become more involved? How can I get into that, and experience those feelings, even more often than I already do?" You need to be doing whatever it is that you love most in the world. You need to be figuring out a way to be involved with what you love most and to be involved with it as often as you can.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;Get going. Now that you've identified what you want to do and how you can become more involved in it, it's time to get going. 2010 may have just begun, but it will be over before you know it. Don't put off the things you want to do. The year will be shorter than you imagine it to be. You will find yourself at the end of it, thinking,"What did I do this year?" Don't let yourself get to the end of the year without doing what it is that you really, truly want to do. It's a new year, a new decade, and it's time to get going! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;For me, last year was a good one and it's inspired me to make this one even better. But if you didn't feel like 2009 was everything you wanted it to be, now is your chance to change things. I believe you can start change at any time, but why not embrace it now when everyone else is so into it? If you want your life to be different, make it different.

Outro exemplo, citado pela BBC news, é que 12% dos homens e 7% das mulheres simplesmente precisavam de ligar a ficha ou premir o botão de "on" dos aparelhos. As mulheres passaram 32% mais tempo ao telefone com os assistentes do que os homens.

We’re so excited, we’d love to spend most of our time doing whatever it is we enjoy so much. And then, one day, the gloss is off. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;Suddenly the ‘best thing ever’ has turns into a chore.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;Has that ever happened to you? I bet it has. It’s as if we fall out of love with something. Maybe your got a fantastic job, but after a year or two it becomes a drag. Or maybe you started a consuming new hobby – and then suddenly lose interest. It can be distressing when you suddenly notice that you’re not enjoying your special job or special activity anymore.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;Here’s what happened to me:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;When I did my Masters in Religious Studies a few years ago, I was totally fired up to begin with. I loved researching and writing papers, finding out new things – especially about Zen history, and really tuning up my brain. The first of the three years was great! The second got harder and harder, and the last year was a grind. However, I managed to throw the switch towards the end and got happily absorbed with writing my thesis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The good news is that there are ways of firing up a fading passion. It’s like being in a long relationship. After the honeymoon period comes a kind of disenchantment. And then the real work of building a happy and lasting relationship begins.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;There are five simple ways to fire up your enthusiasm.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Keep a gratitude diary.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;Remember how it was when you first started? You could see what a wonderful opportunity it was for you. And how it would make you grow and develop. A gratitude journal can bring back that initial passion back to life again. A good way to use it is to write in your journal for 10 minutes each day. Focus on the area in which you want to rekindle your passion and write down everything about the activity that you can be grateful for.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;2. Find out what irks you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;If you look carefully at what it is about the activity that triggers negative thoughts, you can set some changes into motion. Are you stressed out? Do you need people to help you? Is there somebody you are in conflict with? All these things can erode passion.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;3. Ask for help. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;Do you feel that burdened with too much responsibility? If that gets you down, ask for help. Maybe you can share a task with a colleague, or spread the load of responsibility so that others share it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;4. Let go of negative thoughts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;Negative self-talk can erode passion. Whenever you notice that you’re indulging in negative thoughts, pull yourself up. Say to yourself, “I let go.” You’ll notice that this becomes easier, the more you practice letting go of negative thoughts. I find it useful to think of difficulties as ‘challenges’.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;5. Talk with a friend.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;The temptation when talking with a friend is to complain. A better way is to start of with all the things that you cherish about the activity, and everything about it that you are grateful for. After you’ve done that, list the challenges.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. Remember the 90/10 rule.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;When I was struggling to complete my Masters in Religious Studies a couple of years ago, my Head Tutor said to me:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;” Mary, try to be one of the 10% that finish. In my experience, 90% do the first 10% of any given task. But when it gets to the last 10% of a task, only 10% actually complete it.” Afterwards I was determined to be one of the few who finish.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;7. Become absorbed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;The way I managed to rekindle my passion for my Masters program was by allowing myself to become absorbed. Try doing the reverse from what you’re doing at the moment. The more you distance yourself from your activity, the more it will feel like a chore. The more energy you put into it, the more energized and passionate you will feel.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #660000;"&gt;Most importantly – don’t beat yourself up when you feel your passion waning. It’s entirely natural. All natural systems ebb and flow. Nothing stays constant. When our first burst of passion wanes, we have the chance of developing a deeper and more fulfilling way of relating&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8276188193958680084-7492318144066503925?l=go-global-marketing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/feeds/7492318144066503925/comments/default' title='Enviar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8276188193958680084&amp;postID=7492318144066503925' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/7492318144066503925'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/7492318144066503925'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/2009/12/how-to-fire-up-fading-passion-e.html' title='Dissertações e How to fire up a fading passion!!'/><author><name>Ana Maria Soares</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09628862730469977738</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SNR_M98jX1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/5fBX9RFju3s/S220/Ana_pagina.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276188193958680084.post-4883495277152004775</id><published>2009-12-14T01:18:00.001Z</published><updated>2009-12-14T02:30:27.444Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tendências'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Oportunidades'/><title type='text'>Dar para receber!</title><content type='html'>Como sabem, é bem melhor dar do que receber.

Na semana passada escrevi sobre ela e sobre o Sporting dela e nunca tive tantas reacções. Por uma só coluna recebi mais comentários e citações do que por todas as crónicas que aqui escrevi desde o primeiro número da J.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #783f04;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #783f04;"&gt;Quero agradecer, sobretudo ao magnífico site que é o superbraga.com. É um site de fanáticos do Sporting de Braga, que está em número 1 e, por conseguinte, numa posição de mandar fazer amor à concorrência. Mas não.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #783f04;"&gt;Eles sabem que eu sou um lisboeta e benfiquista genético e incurável e que, ainda por cima, tenho uma panca severa pelo Porto e uma admiração-quase-orgulho pelo FCP.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #783f04;"&gt;Sabem que eu queria que o Benfica ganhasse o campeonato, graças ao treinador que roubamos ao Braga. E, no entanto, tiveram a generosidade e a superioridade civilizacional de agradecer o meu elogio e de entendê-lo no espírito em que foi feito.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #783f04;"&gt;Desde quando é que um benfiquista, portista ou sportinguista faria isto? Nunca. Os bracarenses são diferentes. São aristocratas. Aceitam amavelmente a admiração do povo enganado e distante.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #783f04;"&gt;Se calhar, são juntamente com os alentejanos litorais, os únicos portugueses que não tratam como estrangeiros os portugueses que tem o azar de não ser de lá.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #783f04;"&gt;Mal se chega a Braga, vem logo o abraço do "bem-vindo ao clube!" Não é o clube de Braga. É o clube dos portugueses.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #783f04;"&gt;Uma pessoa diz, quase como se pedisse desculpa, que é do Benfica. Eles respondem: "Não te preocupes, que não levamos a mal. Se calhar, nasceste lá, em Lisboa? E a escolha era seres do Sporting ou do Benfica? Imagino a pressão! Fizeste bem em escolher o Benfica! E o Sporting também é um clube porreiro, apesar de queque. É pena não seres do porto: o Porto é mesmo bom."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #783f04;"&gt;O Sporting de Braga vendeu o treinador genial e faz questão de ficar à frente do clube cem mil vezes mais rico que o comprou. Dirão que é uma questão de tempo. Pois sim, porque o dinheiro significa jogadores muito melhores. Mas, à partida, quando mais interessa, o Sporting de Braga já ganhou este campeonato. As respostas no Superbraga.com - no qual me registei, com o meu e-mail verdadeiro, para poder agradecer - são um exemplo para os outros adeptos dos outros grandes clubes do mundo. Mostram que se pode ser incondicional e fanático sem se ser malcriado ou cego ou agressivo. Mostram que a superioridade genuína não é rejeitar nem desconfiar dos elogios alheios - mas agradecê-los com generosa condescendência, do género "Olha, este pobre desgraçado, preso a outro clube por razões meramente geográficas ou genéticas, ainda tem a clarividência de reconhecer que o Sporting de Braga é um grande clube e a inteligência de compreender que tal se deve a Braga ser uma grande cidade."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #783f04;"&gt;Como benfiquista, há muito que me magoa nesta atitude. Pensave que éramos nós os mais inclusivos. Se fosse Sportinguista, também me magoaria, pensando que éramos os maiores snobs. Se fosse portista, já sabia (com mesmo o medo e respeito) que Braga e o Sporting de Braga são mesmo assim.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #783f04;"&gt;Superiores. Gentis. Bem-educados. Sinceros. Como português, tiro-lhes o chapéu. E, com toda a sinceridade, rendo-me a eles.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #783f04;"&gt;Mais do que isto, não posso dizer. Mas já disse. Exijo que o Benfica nomeie uma equipa de investigadores que descubra (inutilmente, de certeza) o que eles tem e nós nunca teremos. Serem bracarenses. É uma das poucas coisas que não se podem fingir: ou se é ou não se é. Eles são. Nós não.

Há uns bons meses abri uma conta. A minha filha, na altura com 12 anos, não me deixava ver a página dela no hi5 e eu estava preocupada com questões de segurança (que fotos lá tem, com quem se relaciona...)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tem sido um ano complicado e acabou por passar muito tempo. Na verdade, ultimamente ela não passa lá muito tempo e deixei de me preocupar... Às vezes chegava um pedido de alguém que realmente gostaria de voltar a encontrar e os 33 pedidos de amizade não respondidos que tinha um destes dias levaram-me a voltar a entrar...  Lembrei-me que não tinha conseguido ainda ver o hi5 da I., voltei a tentar e, inadvertidamente, despoletei um pedido de amizade para todos os meus contactos.... Até para mim própria...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Assim, agora tenho muitos amigos (incluindo o Dartacão Português!) A boa notícia é que isto me deu uma ideia fantástica para um trabalho de investigação numa área cada vez mais importante também do ponto de vista de marketing. E é giro ver os ex-alunos aceitarem o meu pedido de amizade!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8276188193958680084-4959185844071020725?l=go-global-marketing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/feeds/4959185844071020725/comments/default' title='Enviar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8276188193958680084&amp;postID=4959185844071020725' title='1 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/4959185844071020725'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/4959185844071020725'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/2009/11/mais-redes-sociais.html' title='Mais redes sociais'/><author><name>Ana Maria Soares</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09628862730469977738</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SNR_M98jX1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/5fBX9RFju3s/S220/Ana_pagina.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276188193958680084.post-1581982554147012911</id><published>2009-11-07T01:47:00.000Z</published><updated>2009-11-07T07:28:51.280Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tendências'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Oportunidades'/><title type='text'>Facebook</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.mediapost.com/publications/?fa=Articles.showArticle&amp;amp;art_aid=116890"&gt;Think Global. Act Local. Go Social&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;Reggie Bradford&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;The undisputed marketing hero of 2009 is Facebook. There are countless stats to illustrate the growing size and strength of its unmatched audience, from 300 million global users to the recently released 94 million number of U.S. users. Time spent on Facebook continues to soar, with 2009 surely marking the tipping point, where Facebook became the "identity platform." With Facebook Connect and its portability making huge strides, our identity will be evolved and defined on Facebook. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;There is no longer doubt that marketers need to embrace Facebook as a key channel and ultimately make it the fulcrum of their marketing communications. With the traditional media, it is difficult to socialize the brand. Facebook has become an epicenter for the "wisdom of friends" that helps facilitate and solidify our purchasing decisions. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;Teens flock to Facebook for peer interaction and sense of belonging. So what does this mean to marketers? Get in and get social -- or get left behind. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;Getting social is the first step, which most savvy marketers have embraced with robust presences. So what should marketers who want to reach teens through social media be thinking about it in 2010? Simply put, think global, act local, go social. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;Facebook reports the average consumer has 130 friends on Facebook and a Vitrue study shows the average consumer has roughly 50% of his/her friends in the same metropolitan area.&lt;br /&gt;What is particularly powerful for marketers who want to reach teens and build brand affinity for life is the percentage of friends who are local. The number of local friends is undoubtedly higher for people who are younger. I would even venture to say 13-to 18-year-olds tend to have a friend base that is 90%+ local. No doubt the percentage of our local peers will decrease over time, as people go off to college and live in different places, but there is no doubt that youth marketing and making "social local" needs to be a strategic course of action for marketers. After all, isn't this demo key for all marketers to reach to build affinity for life? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;Couple this with the fact that, according to Nielsen, 78% of consumers buy products from a peer or friend, and you have a strategic bull's-eye for providing users with locally relevant social media to drive and influence purchases. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;Today I bet the high school Friday night hang-out is a local restaurant or store such as a Starbucks, McDonald's, Subway or Bruster's. These global brands have a massive presence but need to reach out and engage users where they live. With a local presence, these brands can offer coupons to encourage new product trial, run polls to see what is resonating and provide a local community bulletin board where people can share and collaborate. They can also recruit great talent and showcase their local philanthropic initiatives. By giving teens utility and engagement where they are gravitating, these brands will build bonds for life. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;Powerhouse brands need to give control to local markets while maintaining the ability to dynamically manage thousands of locations. Giving a brand a local presence helps humanize and offer utility to its presence.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8276188193958680084-1581982554147012911?l=go-global-marketing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/feeds/1581982554147012911/comments/default' title='Enviar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8276188193958680084&amp;postID=1581982554147012911' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/1581982554147012911'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/1581982554147012911'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/2009/10/facebook.html' title='Facebook'/><author><name>Ana Maria Soares</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09628862730469977738</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SNR_M98jX1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/5fBX9RFju3s/S220/Ana_pagina.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276188193958680084.post-9076398096317084269</id><published>2009-11-05T01:47:00.000Z</published><updated>2009-11-12T04:58:17.574Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Stresses'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Viagens'/><title type='text'>Preocupações globais</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SvuVYB8ZmII/AAAAAAAAAiE/eT18inUvEuQ/s1600-h/Turquia_2009+079.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

Participaram no concurso sete equipas constituídas por seis elementos: quatro estudantes de universidades portuguesas, um estudante de doutoramento do programa MIT e um investigador do MIT. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;O primeiro prémio foi ganho pela equipa em que estava integrada a aluna Goreti Faria da Costa e Silva da licenciatura em Economia da Universidade do Minho. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;Deixamos aqui ficar o testemunho da Goreti:“O desafio tinha sido lançado: escolher uma aplicação para uma tecnologia capaz de gravar imagens reais a três dimensões, preparar uma estratégia de entrada no mercado e fazer uma apresentação de sete minutos que convencesse potenciais investidores a financiarem a nossa ideia. Eu e os outros quatro estudantes que integravam a minha equipa, acompanhados por Richard Myrick, Senior Advisor and Research Fellow no AgeLab do MIT, apressámo-nos para uma sala da Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia da Universidade Nova de Lisboa e, durante uma hora, sugestões, críticas, conselhos e afins foram continuamente lançados e ouvidos. Apesar dos ponteiros do relógio terem sido demasiado rápidos a darem uma volta completa, era necessário regressarmos ao auditório de modo a que se iniciassem as apresentações das diferentes equipas. Entre aplicações para facilitar compras de roupa on-line e headphones especialmente construídos para não insistirem em cair dos nossos ouvidos, o júri optou pelo Robot de Salvamento apresentado pela nossa equipa, que, através da tecnologia anteriormente referida, seria capaz de melhorar a situação que actualmente se verifica aquando de um desabamento de um prédio, de um incêndio, de um terramoto e de outras situações em que um bom conhecimento da extensão dos danos é imperativo.” &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;Mais informações sobre o evento podem ser consultadas na página de internet:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.fct.unl.pt/meetmit"&gt;http://www.fct.unl.pt/meetmit&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8276188193958680084-4962506173347806723?l=go-global-marketing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/feeds/4962506173347806723/comments/default' title='Enviar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8276188193958680084&amp;postID=4962506173347806723' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/4962506173347806723'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/4962506173347806723'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/2009/10/aluna-da-licenciatura-em-economia-da.html' title='Aluna da Licenciatura em Economia da Universidade do Minho ganha 1º prémio do Concurso de Empreendedorismo no evento Meet MIT'/><author><name>Ana Maria Soares</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09628862730469977738</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SNR_M98jX1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/5fBX9RFju3s/S220/Ana_pagina.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276188193958680084.post-5934007695559860269</id><published>2009-10-23T01:47:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2009-11-07T07:30:55.784Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tendências'/><title type='text'>Entrevista</title><content type='html'>O Carlos M. chama a minha atenção para a entrevista de H.

Aposto que o Tiago, que me enviou este texto, também gostou da comparação!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;“Braga é fantástico. Às vezes, fica-se com a impressão que é Braga que deveria mandar neste país. Veio do Sporting de Braga o treinador que está a salvar o Benfica. Mas, mesmo sem esse treinador, o Sporting de Braga está em primeiro lugar&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;.Acho que o Sporting de Braga é o único clube de que todos os portugueses gostam secretamente. Os benfiquistas acham que eles são do Benfica; os do Sporting apontam para o nome e os portistas, por muito que lhes custe, são nortenhos e não se pode ser nortenho sem gostar de Braga.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;Toda a gente tem medo - e com razão - do Sporting de Braga. Há a mania de engraçar com a Académica de Coimbra ou com o Belenenses, mas são amores fáceis, que não fazem medo nem potenciam tragédias.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;O Sporting de Braga não se presta a essas condescendências simpáticas. É por ser temido que o admiramos. Mais do que genica, tem brio. É uma atitude com que se nasce; não se pode ensinar nem aprender.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;A primeira vez que fui a Braga já estava à espera de encontrar uma cidade grande e diferente de todas as outras. Mas fiquei siderado. Acho que Braga se dá a conhecer a quem lá entra, sem receios ou desejos de impressionar.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;A primeira impressão foi a modernidade de Braga - pareceu-me Portugal, mas no futuro. E num futuro feliz. O Porto e Lisboa são mais provincianos do que Braga; tem mais complexos; tem mais manias; tem mais questiúnculas por resolver e mais coisas para provar.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;Braga fez-me lembrar Milão. É verdade. Eu adoro Milão mas Milão é (mais ou menos) Italiano, enquanto Braga é descaradamente português. Havia muitas motas; muitas luzes; muita alegria; muito à-vontade.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;Lisboa e Porto digladiam-se; confrontam-se; definem-se por oposição uma à outra. Braga está-se nas tintas. E Coimbra - que é outra cidade feliz de Portugal - também é muito gira, mas não tem o poderio e a prosperidade de Braga.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;Em Braga, ninguém está preocupado com a afirmação de Braga em Portugal ou no mundo. Braga já era e Braga continua a ser. Sem ir a Roma, só em Braga se compreende o sentido da palavra "Augusta". Em contrapartida, na Rua Augusta, em Lisboa, não há boa vontade que chegue para nos convencer que o adjectivo tenha proveniência romana. A Rua Augusta é "augusta" como a Avenida da Liberdade é da "liberdade" e a Avenida dos Aliados é dos "aliados", mas Braga é augusta no sentido original, conferido pelo próprio Augusto.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;Em Braga, a questão de se "comer bem" ou "comer mal" não existe. Come-se. E, para se comer, não pode ser mal. Pronto. Em Lisboa, por muito bem que se conheçam os poucos bons restaurantes, está-se sempre à espera de uma desilusãozinha.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;No Porto, apesar de ser difícil, ainda se consegue arranjar alguma ansiedade de se ser mal servido; de ir a um restaurante desconhecido e, por um cósmico azar, comer menos do que bem. Em Braga isso é impossível. O problema da ansiedade não existe. Braga tem tudo. Passa bem sem nós. Mas nós é que não passamos sem ela, porque os bracarenses ensinam-nos a não perder tempo a medir o comprimento das pilinhas uns dos outros ou a arranjar termómetros de portuguesismo ou de autenticidade.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;É por isso que o Sporting de Braga está à frente. Não é por se chamar Sporting. Não é por ter cedido o treinador ao Benfica. O Benfica ganhou muito com isso. Mas é o Sporting de Braga que está à frente.É por ser de Braga. É uma coisa que, infelizmente, nem todos nós podemos ser.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;Fique então apenas a gentileza de ficar aqui dito de ter pena de não ser.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8276188193958680084-8984322075695185134?l=go-global-marketing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/feeds/8984322075695185134/comments/default' title='Enviar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8276188193958680084&amp;postID=8984322075695185134' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/8984322075695185134'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/8984322075695185134'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/2009/10/braga-por-mec.html' title='Braga por MEC'/><author><name>Ana Maria Soares</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09628862730469977738</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SNR_M98jX1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/5fBX9RFju3s/S220/Ana_pagina.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276188193958680084.post-7468820664295021819</id><published>2009-10-03T17:37:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2009-10-06T17:47:30.320+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Actividade científica'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Investigação'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Oportunidades'/><title type='text'>39th EMAC</title><content type='html'>A EMAC é a mais importante conferência Europeia de Marketing. Constitui uma excelente oportunidade para apresentar trabalhos de investigação em curso. Embora nos úçltimos anos a atxa de aceitação seja na ordem dos 40% não deixa de constituir um desafio ao alcance mesmo para os mais jovens investigadores. Recordo com frequência a minha primeira EMAC, em 1998 ou 1999 (não fui apresentar nenhum paper, dessa vez...) em que percebi que investigação que fazemos cá (quer ao nível de Mestrado, quer de Doutoramento) está ao nível da investigação realizada a nível internacional.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Em 2002, coube à Universidade do Minho e ao nosso sub-grupo disciplinar de Marketing e Gestão Estratégica a honra de organizar esta conferência. A próxima edição terá lugar em Copenhaga e o Call for papers está aberto até 1 de Dezembro. Boa sorte!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;Dear EMAC members,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;We would like to draw your attention to the 39th EMAC Conference hosted by the Copenhagen Business School, Copenhagen, Denmark June 1-4, 2010.&lt;br /&gt;39th EMAC Conference – Call for PapersThe Department of Marketing has chosen “The Six Senses – The Essentials of Marketing” as motto for the conference in 2010. Marketing starts and ends with the senses. Customers express their identity, feelings, thoughts and motivations influenced by current and previous sensory experiences with products and services – and marketers communicating about their offers increasingly include appeals to all senses. The transformation of extant and new products and services from the firm to its customers rely on customers’ ability to perceive and develop favourable preferences from marketing mix input as well as cultural and social stimuli. The six senses are truly the essentials of marketing!&lt;br /&gt;The EMAC 2010 Conference invites electronic submissions of papers, which should be sent in PDF format no later than December 1, 2009. Submissions should be done on-line on the EMAC 2010 conference Website &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.emac2010.org/"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;http://www.emac2010.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;We look forward to your submission!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8276188193958680084-7468820664295021819?l=go-global-marketing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/feeds/7468820664295021819/comments/default' title='Enviar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8276188193958680084&amp;postID=7468820664295021819' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/7468820664295021819'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/7468820664295021819'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/2009/10/39th-emac.html' title='39th EMAC'/><author><name>Ana Maria Soares</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09628862730469977738</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SNR_M98jX1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/5fBX9RFju3s/S220/Ana_pagina.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276188193958680084.post-868953001188277553</id><published>2009-09-29T15:48:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2009-09-29T15:58:43.847+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Actividade pedagógica'/><title type='text'>Praxes...

Mariano Gago repudia as "práticas de humilhação e de agressão física e psicológica" com carácter "fascista e boçal" infligidas aos caloiros no ensino superior, "identificadas ou desculpadas como ‘praxes’ académicas".&lt;br /&gt;Pela "extraordinária gravidade" de algumas destas práticas, impõe-se "uma atitude de responsabilidade colectiva" que "não permite qualquer tolerância" com "insuportáveis violações do Estado de Direito" no meio académico. "A degradação física e psicológica dos mais novos como rito de iniciação é uma afronta aos valores da própria educação e à razão de ser das instituições de ensino superior e deve ser eficazmente combatida por todos: estudantes, professores e, muito especialmente, pelos próprios responsáveis das instituições", defende o governante.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;Os responsáveis pelas instituições não devem disponibilizar, directa ou indirectamente, "recursos materiais ou outras facilidades" para a realização de praxes, mas "intervir de forma activa" junto dos novos estudantes, especialmente os deslocados, e dizer-lhes "com clareza" que podem recusar participar nas praxes sem recear perder direitos, recomenda Mariano Gago. Quanto às associações de estudantes, cabe-lhes promover "uma verdadeira integração na comunidade académica" e recusar acolhimento ou apoios a acções que "põem objectivamente em causa" a "liberdade e a dignidade humana".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;Mariano Gago recordou que a lei que rege as instituições de ensino superior estipula sanções - que podem ir da advertência à expulsão - para actos de "violência ou coacção física ou psicológica" sobre estudantes cometidos nas praxes. O ministro recebeu na semana passada os responsáveis do Movimento Anti-Tradição Académica, que no domingo divulgou que a Universidade Lusíada de Famalicão vai pagar uma indemnização de 90 mil euros à família do jovem universitário que terá morrido na sequência de uma praxe académica.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8276188193958680084-868953001188277553?l=go-global-marketing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/feeds/868953001188277553/comments/default' title='Enviar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8276188193958680084&amp;postID=868953001188277553' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/868953001188277553'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/868953001188277553'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/2009/09/praxes-sem-mais-comentarios.html' title='Praxes...

/&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;Porque a atracção e retenção de jovens de elevado potencial, com espírito de liderança e ambição de abraçar desafios, é determinante para preparar o futuro do Grupo e para a concretização dos seus objectivos, a Mota-Engil concebeu um Programa Corporativo de Trainees, denominado start@ME.O que é o Programa Corporativo de Trainees?O start@ME pretende acolher anualmente um conjunto de Trainees, promovendo o seu alinhamento com a Cultura e Valores da Mota-Engil e a sua integração nas várias unidades de negócio do Grupo, dando-lhes assim a oportunidade de integrar um dos maiores e mais diversificados grupos empresariais portugueses, com uma forte componente internacional, e de iniciar o seu percurso profissional através de um programa estruturado, que lhes permitirá simultaneamente alcançar uma visão transversal do Grupo e potenciar o seu know-how técnico e experiência. A quem se destina?Este Programa tem como objectivo atrair jovens de elevado potencial em início de carreira, com diferentes backgrounds académicos de base e com habilitações ao nível da Licenciatura, Mestrado, Pós-Graduação ou MBA.Qual a estrutura do Programa?O start@ME contempla um ramo corporativo comum e um ramo específico, englobando um conjunto de três etapas, que decorrerão num total de dez meses:1.ª Etapa: ao longo das primeiras semanas, o grupo de Trainees seleccionado passará por um conjunto de iniciativas de acolhimento corporativo e de imersão no Grupo, através de acções de (in)formação e dinamização do conhecimento da Mota-Engil. 2.ª Etapa: cada Trainee será integrado numa unidade de negócio do Grupo, onde concretizará um Plano de Integração de nove meses numa ou várias áreas funcionais, garantindo o desenvolvimento do seu conhecimento técnico e específico do negócio. 3.ª Etapa: os Trainees que tenham tido uma elevada performance ao longo do seu Plano de Integração e que venham a permanecer na Mota-Engil, integrarão um programa de formação na Universidade Corporativa do Grupo – a MOTA-ENGIL Active School, que visa não só reforçar o seu conhecimento da Mota-Engil e as relações e sinergias criadas, como também promover a partilha do know-how adquirido e o desenvolvimento de competências e conhecimento em áreas transversais.Qual o calendário do Programa?A primeira edição do Programa start@ME terá início em Outubro de 2009 e término em Julho de 2010.Queres ser um Trainee do Grupo Mota-Engil?start@ME é o teu ponto de partida para uma carreira de sucesso, desenvolvendo as tuas competências na área de negócio do Grupo Mota-Engil que mais te alicia.Procuramos os melhores talentos.

How will well-established research findings from the offline world transfer toCMEs?&lt;br /&gt;That's where Virtual Social Identity and Consumer Behavior comes in.Written by two of the leading experts in the field, it presentscutting-edge academic research on virtual social identity, exploresconsumer behavior in virtual worlds, and offers important implications formarketers interested in working in these environments. The book providesspecial insight into the largest and fastest growing group of users--kidsand teens. There is no better source for understanding the impact ofvirtual social identities on consumers, consumer behavior, and electroniccommerce.&lt;br /&gt;"There is no more important issue confronting scholars of consumer behavior than the opportunities and pitfalls of the digital world. Social Identity, as expressed via social networking websites, digitalphotographs, and three-dimensional avatars, will change the way we think of relationships among consumers, advertisers, and brands.

Trata-se de um tema extremamente interessante, quer do ponto de vista prático, quer enquanto tema de investigação. No entanto, não deve ser esta a única perspectiva para  aferir da importância do Marketing para asa empresas, pois "o Marketing é demasiado importante para ser deixado a cargo do departamento de Marketing"(David Packard) e, ou existe em toda a organização ou não passa de uma palavra vã no lexico das empresas...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;The March 2009 issue of Journal of Marketing includes a study by Peter Verhoef and Peter Leeflang (“&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.atypon-link.com/AMA/doi/pdfplus/10.1509/jmkg.73.2.14"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;Understanding the Marketing Department’s Influence Within the Firm&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;”) whose findings are likely to appeal to both practitioners and academics in the marketing discipline. Motivated by recent declarations about the diminished influence of marketing and that marketing’s role has become less strategic and more tactical in character, the authors attempt to “determine and explain the level and determinants of the marketing department’s influence within the firm.”&lt;br /&gt;Their conceptual model posits that two broad antecedent constructs—marketing department capabilities (e.g., accountability, innovativeness) and control variables (e.g., firm and environmental characteristics)—shape marketing’s influence within the firm (e.g., perceived influence, top management respect, decision influence). In turn, the latter positively influence business performance both directly and indirectly through marketing orientation. Finally, business performance is controlled for firm size and innovativeness.&lt;br /&gt;With respect to marketing’s influence within the firm, Verhoef and Leeflang’s empirical results indicate that accountability and innovativeness of the marketing department are important determinants for all three measures of influence considered. For market orientation, the findings show that both perceived influence and top management respect are statistically significant predictors. Finally, their model results indicate that market orientation mediates the relationship between marketing influence and business performance. Overall, the authors conclude that their research affirms a weakened position of the marketing department in the firm. They suggest two possible approaches for marketing departments to regain their influence within firms: (1) They should become more accountable for the link between marketing actions and financial results, and (2) they should become more innovative by contributing to the firm’s organic growth. The former reflects the spirit of recent research in the marketing literature that explicitly links strategic marketing actions to widely recognized measures of financial performance.&lt;br /&gt;I welcome the authors’ empirical contributions on this new research topic. I request JM readers to take a moment now to comment on their insights.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.marketingpower2.com/blog/journalofmarketing/2009/03/"&gt;http://www.marketingpower2.com/blog/journalofmarketing/2009/03/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8276188193958680084-5367054664966158857?l=go-global-marketing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/feeds/5367054664966158857/comments/default' title='Enviar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8276188193958680084&amp;postID=5367054664966158857' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/5367054664966158857'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/5367054664966158857'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/2009/03/marketings-influence-within-firm.html' title='Marketing’s Influence Within the Firm'/><author><name>Ana Maria Soares</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09628862730469977738</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SNR_M98jX1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/5fBX9RFju3s/S220/Ana_pagina.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276188193958680084.post-7520953291154175782</id><published>2009-03-05T09:44:00.003Z</published><updated>2009-03-19T19:48:07.888Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Actividade pedagógica'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Marketing cultural'/><title type='text'>Current issues in cultural marketing</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Autora e consultora em Marketing Cultural, Joanne Scheff Bernstein destaca um conjunto de preocupações dos gestores na área das artes e da cultura, que se transcrevem abaixo&lt;a href="http://www.artsmarketinginsights.com/"&gt;(http://www.artsmarketinginsights.com/&lt;/a&gt;). Trata-se de um conjunto de questões que pode, e deve, ser abordado do ponto de vista do Marketing: Comportamento do consumidor; influência macro-ambiental e relação com os vários agentes do micro-ambiente: desenvolvimento de uma oferta que vá de encontro à missão artística e organizacional da organização e à realidade do mercado. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Obviamente, esta conciliação entre a "verdade artística" e o mercado, ou, na verdade, a própria possibilidade dessa conciliação pode ser um interessante tema de discussão. Existirão alguns puristas para quem a verdadeira arte, por definição, tem que ser acessível e intelegível apenas a uma elite. Segundo este ponto de vista, arte e sucesso no mercado dificilmente serão conciliáveis. Este será um tema para a primeira aula da Marketing Cultural, a pretexto de um texto sobre o caso de Joana Vasconcelos, artística plástica portuguesa.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;Current Issues in Arts Marketing&lt;br /&gt;Arts managers in my seminars in various cities and countries repeatedly describe the same concerns:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;Arts audiences are aging. The younger generations haven't experienced the levels of exposure to the arts, especially at school, that their predecessors have enjoyed. How can we attract more young people to attend our programs and build their interest in our offerings?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;As a result of the arts boom of the mid-1960s through the mid-1980s, competition among arts organizations has greatly increased. Furthermore, competition for the arts has spiraled with the ever-growing number of alternative leisure-time pursuits. How can we regularly attract significant audiences to our performances and build their loyalty and commitment?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;The subscriber base is slowly eroding and the tried and true methods for implementing subscription campaigns are no longer as effective as they once were. What can we do to attract and retain more subscribers?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;As our costs continue to rise, so do our ticket prices. How can we manage our ticket pricing structure so that we do not lose current patrons or create barriers for potential patrons?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;How can we leverage new technology in a cost- and labor-efficient manner in order to build interest in our organization, provide timely information about our offerings, educate our consumers, and increase ticket sales?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;How can we develop a distinctive image and brand identity for our organization and its offerings that will be compelling to our current and prospective patrons and supporters?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;Given that our ticket sales may be managed externally and box office personnel may be out of our control, that we have limited and overworked staff and frequently rely on volunteers, how can we provide great customer service?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;With minimal media coverage for the arts and the high cost of paid advertising, how can we most effectively and efficiently get the word out about our programs?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;How can we create a valued and memorable total experience for the customer -- an experience that begins when a patron first hears about the organization and its programs and ends, hopefully, long after the curtain has gone down.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8276188193958680084-7520953291154175782?l=go-global-marketing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/feeds/7520953291154175782/comments/default' title='Enviar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8276188193958680084&amp;postID=7520953291154175782' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/7520953291154175782'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/7520953291154175782'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/2009/03/autora-e-consultora-em-marketing.html' title='Current issues in cultural marketing'/><author><name>Ana Maria Soares</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09628862730469977738</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SNR_M98jX1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/5fBX9RFju3s/S220/Ana_pagina.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276188193958680084.post-6212840049521438761</id><published>2009-02-24T21:51:00.002Z</published><updated>2009-02-24T21:56:28.624Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Marketing cultural'/><title type='text'>Marketing Cultural</title><content type='html'>A relação entre um produto e os seus públicos pode também ser abordada do ponto de vista das artes.

Gerald Ford’s dog Liberty, Richard Nixon’s Vicky (which stands for victory), and Jimmy Carter’s Grits were on the right scent. Conversely, Rutherford B. Hayes and Calvin Coolidge may have sent the wrong signals with pets named Grim and Calamity Jane.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;Make the name easy to pronounce — and spell. Lincoln’s dog was named Jip, which was often misspelled Gyp.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;Tell a story with the name. The name should say something about character, history, or pedigree. Kennedy’s dog Shannon was a gift from the president of Ireland.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;Keep the name unusual. Avoid the obvious dog names — Max, Sam, Lady, Bear, Buddy, Smokey, Shadow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;Give the name a “made in America” feel. Avoid foreign-sounding names like Manchu (Theodore Roosevelt), Caruso (Taft), and Pushinka (Kennedy).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;End with a vowel sound. Dog names ending in vowels like Fido (Lincoln) and Barney (George W. Bush) are easier for your pets to recognize. This is good insurance for a president who wants to make sure that no matter what he does, there will still be one living being who will listen to him. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a

Uma viagem à Grécia é sempre uma aventura (até atravessar a rua, na passadeira, com o sinal verde pode ser arriscado neste país!), mas desta vez, apanho um período especialmente conturbado.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O edifício principal da Οικονομικού Πανεπιστημίου Αθηνών - AUEB - Athens University of Economics and Business estava ocupado pelos alunos. Aqui, não havia, como nas instalações do Politécnico, umas dezenas de metros à frente, guardas de rosto tapado e armados com barras de ferro, à porta. No entanto, os portões estavam fechados, havia faixas de protesto, graffitis (muitos!), montes de pedras e restos de fogueiras. Às vezes, alguém protestava com o megafone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Felizmente as aulas do PR.I.M.A. decorrem noutro edifício. No entanto, não havia internet, e apenas um telefone funcionava (o servidor está localizado no edifício principal e não era possível entrar para fazer reparações...). Ainda assim, no segundo dia, tivemos que interromper a aula quando grupos de manifestantes começaram a passar.

Much more on caring in our upcoming February 2009 briefing, which will focus on GENERATION G, but for now: offering respect and relevance (NICHETRIBUTES), listening to real-time needs and wants (FEEDBACK 3.0), helping people to save money while being green (ECONCIERGE): all of this will not be forgotten by consumers that are currently feeling the heat.&lt;br /&gt;At the same time, this is a great moment to innovate: shrinking budgets and diminishing revenues from existing offerings normally bring out the best and most creative in business professionals.&lt;br /&gt;But the most important side effect of more austere times is probably that consumers start questioning what truly makes them happy, which more often than not steers them towards the realization that happiness ain’t (just) about traditional consumption. Expect pockets of consumers to switch to lower-consumption models with surprising ease, and to look for different and less costly sources of happiness and thus, ultimately, status. Any way you can help them with that will be a guaranteed winner. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#990000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.trendwatching.com/trends/halfdozentrends2009/"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8276188193958680084-5252646102441384968?l=go-global-marketing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/feeds/5252646102441384968/comments/default' title='Enviar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8276188193958680084&amp;postID=5252646102441384968' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/5252646102441384968'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/5252646102441384968'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/2008/12/consumer-trends-for-2009.html' title='Consumer trends for 2009'/><author><name>Ana Maria Soares</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09628862730469977738</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SNR_M98jX1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/5fBX9RFju3s/S220/Ana_pagina.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276188193958680084.post-936350899644688651</id><published>2008-12-16T07:57:00.001Z</published><updated>2008-12-17T20:13:42.658Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Investigação'/><title type='text'>Dissertation themes</title><content type='html'>I will write in English this week, out of consideration for the Greek students to whom I will be teaching today and tomorrow. Some time ago, a comment was left on a previous message on the role of Esperanto as a truly global language as it overcomes the limitations of non-native English speakers... However, I'll have to settle with English as I do not speak Esperanto!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many students have talked to me about their plans for dissertation. Below I list some of my research interests and plans that I hope some of you will find useful in choosing your own research path. Whenever possible, I included information about specific calls for research in a particular subject as these provide a detailed appraisal of the state of the art or the research gaps in the area.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Globalization and challenges for International marketing, marketeers and companies&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The globalization of economies poses considerable challenges to companies. Firms are no longer protected by local governments nor can they afford to ignore non domestic competitors. An understanding of the important competencies of international marketing managers can help understand why some companies go global as well as why they succeed or fail in international marketing. An exploratory study was conducted in Portugal to identify the competencies that managers perceive as more important for dealing with the complexities of export, international and global marketing. Some of my research subjects in IM are:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obstacles and challenges in entering International markets&lt;br /&gt;Entry modes&lt;br /&gt;Born globals&lt;br /&gt;Developing competences for international markets&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Consumer behaviour&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Consumer behaviour is a ever changing and challenging research area:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Time&lt;br /&gt;The impact of time constraints on consumer behaviour is a very interesting subject which has not been sufficiently addressed by reserach in Marketing and consimer behaviour. This has been object of at least two calls for paper for special papers editions, which you can find below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#990000;"&gt;Special issue Journal of Consumer Policy&lt;br /&gt;“Surprisingly little academic attention has been given to shifting patterns in time use in the past few decades, despite dramatic changes in time use. Since the 1980s, working time has declined in OECD countries by more than seven hours per week for both men and women, and, although total work (i.e. both paid and unpaid) is quite similar between genders, there is a gender-specific composition of this total work: women reduced their housework substantially, yet men increased theirs only marginally. Reduced working hours have also gone hand-in-hand with increases in leisure time. Additionally, big changes in the structure and timing of activities have taken place, e.g., individuals do not have as much uninterrupted time for one sole activity as they used to have in the past. Such changes do not only affect the allocation of time, but also private consumption in many areas. This, in turn, means a challenge for consumer policy.&lt;br /&gt;This special issue of the Journal of Consumer Policy (JCP) focuses on understanding the causes and implications of these changing patterns of time allocation and consumption – from both an academic and a policy perspective. Relevant questions that can be addressed within this special issue are, for example:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Consumer aspects:&lt;br /&gt;- Do we get financially richer - yet “time poorer”?&lt;br /&gt;- What does this mean for the individual consumer?&lt;br /&gt;- What has caused these changes in time allocation?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Policy aspects:&lt;br /&gt;- What are the implications for consumer policy? Do, e.g., the “time-poor” pay more?&lt;br /&gt;- Have policy measures influenced the way we allocate our time?&lt;br /&gt;- Which policy instruments are needed to cope with the changes in time allocation?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other aspects:&lt;br /&gt;- Is there gender-specific behaviour with regard to time allocation and consumption?&lt;br /&gt;- How can persistent gender differences in time use be explained?&lt;br /&gt;- What are the effects of mother’s time structures on their children’s consumption&lt;br /&gt;(e.g. children’s eating patterns, mass media consumption, etc.)?&lt;br /&gt;- Does marketing / advertisements enhance gender differences in time use patterns?&lt;br /&gt;The editors of this special issue welcome contributions reflecting different perspectives,&lt;br /&gt;methodological approaches, international and cross-cultural contexts. While empirical papers are strongly encouraged, theoretical and conceptual contributions which address issues arising from time consumption and wider aspects of the time use debate within consumer policy research are particularly welcome.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Special Issue on ‘Inter-temporal Choice’&lt;br /&gt;Inter-temporal choice: neuronal and psychological determinants of economic decisions&lt;br /&gt;Special Issue Editors:&lt;br /&gt;Marc Wittmann (University of California San Diego),&lt;br /&gt;Martin Paulus (University of California San Diego)&lt;br /&gt;Inter-temporal choices involve a tradeoff between costs and benefits that occur over time. That is, decisions on options often involve short-term and long-term outcomes, e.g. spending money on a luxury product now or investing that money for the future. Inter-temporal decisions affect our whole life; they determine the success in achieving life goals, personal and career-related.&lt;br /&gt;Therefore, investigations on inter-temporal decision making must cover fields from behavioural economics to psychology, medicine and neuroscience. Research studies assess consumer behaviour related to the choice of product delivery times, kids’ choices between a marshmallow now and two marshmallows in 10 minutes, or health-related decisions of patients in a clinical context. These investigations are all related to the underlying question of impulsivity and self-control (the ability to delay gratification).&lt;br /&gt;Investigations have started to identify perceptual and neuronal mechanisms that determine intertemporal choices. In recent years, for example, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies have begun to examine the neural correlates of inter-temporal decisions in humans, revealing distinct brain regions activated when subjects are more present-orientated and choose immediate options and when they are more patient and show self-controlled behavior. Here, the ongoing debate is whether this conceptualization actually can be confirmed that two distinct andcompeting brain systems underlie impulsive and self-controlled behavior. Moreover, the perception of time has recently become the focus of attention. Since individuals have to make decisions based on predictions of rewards on different time scales, the dimension of time is an unavoidable entity when making every-day decisions. That is, the subjective perception of time (as related to the delay of an outcome) influences choice behavior.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Services marketing&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Marketing of Higher Education Institutions&lt;br /&gt;Higher Education Institutions face increasingly dynamic and complex challenges. In particular their operating environment is undergoing major transformations such as changing demand patterns, intensifying global competition and declining in funding. Consequently, institutional attention is increasingly focused on attracting high quality (human) resources and students. Such context demands a deeper understanding of which sources prospective students resort to when applying to a Higher Education Institution (HEI), both at graduate and undergraduate level&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Health institutions Marketing – Hospital satisfaction&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Arts Marketing&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#990000;"&gt;Special issue call for papers from Marketing Intelligence and Planning&lt;br /&gt;It is becoming increasingly evident through conference tracks and publications in general marketing and management journals that the area of arts marketing is growing, both in terms of academic members and wider importance in the marketing field (see for example Fillis, 2004; Holbrook, 2005; O'Reilly, 2005, Schroeder, 2005; Bradshaw and Holbrook, 2007).&lt;br /&gt;The purpose of this Special Issue is to provide a showcase for cutting edge contemporary research in the field of arts marketing. Papers are particularly encouraged that contribute to the academic debate and also demonstrate practical application for arts marketing practitioners and artists. Specific topics might include the following, but papers of good quality on any appropriate arts marketing related issue would be welcome.&lt;br /&gt;The nature of marketing and its fit with the arts&lt;br /&gt;Marketing orientation and the arts&lt;br /&gt;Strategic arts marketing issues&lt;br /&gt;Marketing and consumption of all art forms regardless of their conventional categorisation (e.g. 'for' and 'not for profit'; high art and popular culture)&lt;br /&gt;Arts branding&lt;br /&gt;Researching arts audiences&lt;br /&gt;Defining and delivering customer value in the arts&lt;br /&gt;Creativity and innovation in the arts organisation&lt;br /&gt;Marketing strategy: the artist and artistic organisation&lt;br /&gt;International issues in the arts&lt;br /&gt;Moving beyond the art vs. commerce debate&lt;br /&gt;Co-creation of the arts&lt;br /&gt;Performing identity: artist and audiences&lt;br /&gt;Digital media and arts provision&lt;br /&gt;Synergising academic and practitioner research in arts marketing&lt;br /&gt;Moving beyond metaphorical application of the arts in marketing&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#990000;"&gt;References&lt;br /&gt;Bradshaw, A and Holbrook, M (2007) Remembering Chet: Theorising the Mythology of the Self-Destructive Bohemian Artist as Self-Producer and Self-Consumer in the Market for Romanticism.

Este é um tema que praticamente não foi abordado nas aulas de Marketing Internacional este ano, mas que gosto particularmente de discutir, e que designa qualquer influência, positiva ou negativa, que o país de fabrico possa ter no processo de escolha e subsequente comportamento do consumidor. As empresas portuguesas são frequentemente afectadas por este problema na sua presença internacional e estima-se que tal se traduza numa redução dos preços praticados que pode atingir os 30% comparativamente com produtos de qualidade comparável de outras origens. Vou abordar este tema na próxima semana nas minhas aulas em Atenas (se não encontrar a AUEB fechada na seuqência dos tumultos que se arrastam há cerca de uma semana ;-(... Em relação a esta questão, sou de opinião que uma vertente importante na resolução do problema são as várias campanhas para "vender Portugal". A última, a campanha Portugal - West coast" terá custado 1,4 milhões. 46% desse montante foi investido em Portugal, na verdade mudar a imagem do país 8é igualmente importante para os consumidores nacionais. Esta é uma questão relevante para os consumidores de vários países. O artigo abaixo da Marketing Week de hoje &lt;a href="http://www.marketingweek.co.uk/cgi-bin/item.cgi?id=63663&amp;amp;d=259&amp;amp;h=263&amp;amp;f=3"&gt;http://www.marketingweek.co.uk/cgi-bin/item.cgi?id=63663&amp;amp;d=259&amp;amp;h=263&amp;amp;f=3&lt;/a&gt;, aborda esta questão:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993300;"&gt;The "act local, think global" maxim is something that many marketers live by, or at least try to. They understand that the world's needs and desires have not been irrevocably homogenised.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yet British consumers care less about whether a brand is locally owned than most other people in the world. According to research conducted by Millward Brown, more than 70% of those surveyed are proud to be from the UK, but only 31% agreed that they "always try to buy brands produced in my own country".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is even more remarkable when compared to other countries around the world - and at a time when the economic climate has seen politicians and executives implore a sense of national pride and support. Of the 3,000 people surveyed globally, those in China, India, Mexico, the US and Brazil were much more likely to buy brands locally produced, but Germans and Russians had similar views to the British people surveyed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In most countries acting locally is a key part of global brand success. After all, there really is no such thing as a global consumer. People's needs, values and desires differ dramatically from one country to the next.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Across eight countries, regression analysis found that being seen to be part of the national culture was a significant driver of purchase intent for both global and local brands but, perhaps not surprisingly, local brands tended to perform better on this attribute than global ones. To create strong relationships with consumers across cultures, a global brand needs to take regional differences into account and embrace the local culture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Two countries deviate from this general finding - Russia and the UK. In both countries history helps explain why.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Russia, for example, a brand that is seen as part of local culture undermines purchase intent because it evokes memories of poor quality goods of the Communist era. As a result, foreign brands are held in higher regard here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the UK, history also plays a part in explaining why British consumers seem less influenced by local culture. Since the days of the Empire, British people have become used to products acquired from around the world. And the fact that people travel more frequently these days means consumers now have a greater experience of foreign cultures and brands, which makes them more comfortable with buying brands from abroad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Consumers are also influenced by a lower regard for brands in general and higher concern about getting the best price. In developed economies like the UK, people believe that most brands are the same and therefore are more likely to buy on price, a dimension that often favours imported brands.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, there is some confusion about what brands are truly local. Nearly half of respondents (49%) agreed with the statement that "I don't care if the brand I buy is owned by a foreign company", and the evidence suggests that most people have little idea whether a brand is owned by a foreign company or not. Most respondents (87%) think Tetley tea is British, when it is in fact owned by the Indian company Tata, and 61% said the Mini was British, even though it is now owned by the German car manufacturer BMW.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nor does a brand have to be British owned to be perceived as part of the national culture. Most people recognise Ford is American but that does not stop a good percentage believing it is part of our national culture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This said, even with the UK's apparent lack of concern about whether brands are produced locally or who owns them, some brands still manage to play the local card well. Of the men surveyed, 72% agreed that John Smith's was part of the British culture, while in Scotland, eight out of ten people interviewed agreed Irn Bru was part of the national culture. Other brands, such as Walkers, Hovis and Innocent, also speak to consumers in a uniquely British tone. The marketing communication for all these brands relies on the use of local celebrities, local references and humour that may not translate well abroad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When it comes to communication, rather than ownership, of a brand, making sure you take account of local culture is even more important because communication is bound up with culture. Millward Brown's Link database, which contains consumer opinions on more than 50,000 ads globally, reveals of those ads that tested exceptionally well in one country, only one in five did so in another. And almost one in ten of those exceptional ads performed below average when tested in another country. Differences in values, references and humour rob these ads of their original efficacy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even though British consumers are relaxed about where a brand comes from, it is still critical that the brand communicates to them in a way that they understand and appreciate. This ability to adapt to local values and preferences is the secret to successful global brands.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nigel Hollis, Millward Brown executive vice-president and chief global analyst, contributed to this week's Insight&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.marketingweek.co.uk/cgi-bin/item.cgi?id=63663&amp;amp;d=259&amp;amp;h=263&amp;amp;f=3"&gt;http://www.marketingweek.co.uk/cgi-bin/item.cgi?id=63663&amp;amp;d=259&amp;amp;h=263&amp;amp;f=3&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8276188193958680084-5763139870063277184?l=go-global-marketing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/feeds/5763139870063277184/comments/default' title='Enviar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8276188193958680084&amp;postID=5763139870063277184' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/5763139870063277184'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/5763139870063277184'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/2008/12/buy-local.html' title='Buy local'/><author><name>Ana Maria Soares</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09628862730469977738</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SNR_M98jX1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/5fBX9RFju3s/S220/Ana_pagina.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276188193958680084.post-5345676232006112348</id><published>2008-12-08T14:54:00.000Z</published><updated>2008-12-13T00:29:51.004Z</updated><title type='text'>Conferência do Quadrilátero Urbano para a Competitividade, Inovação e Internacionalização</title><content type='html'>Há mais de uma semana que não venho cá... e, no entanto, esta ausência não denuncia falta de assunto mas apenas falta de tempo...

Esta Conferência reuniu vários agentes, políticos, empresários, associações não-lucrativas e académicos, para discutirem um dos instrumentos da política do ordenamento do território: a constituição de redes urbanas como mecanismos para cooperação e competitividade local. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;A sessão foi marcada pela excelência das intervenções. Destaco apenas a intervenção do Prof. António Câmara, docente da Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia da Universidade Nova de Lisboa e director-executivo da "YDreams", uma empresa que é um exemplo notável de empreendedorismo e inovação. Da intervenção do Prof. António Câmara, marcada pelo optimismo, tranquilidade e visão, realço a sua convicção da importância do desporto para o desenvolvimento do empreendedorismo. O desporto "ensina-nos a perder"... A partir de agora sempre que o J. me perguntar se pode ir vender os seus desenhos pela rua, vender limonada, fazer uma venda de garagem com os brinquedos que já não quer... e outras ideias peregrinas que costuma ter na sua ânsia de ganhar dinheiro, vou mandá-lo jogar futebol...

The problem has long been that the company does not want to have to pay dealers to fold the brands it does not need as it did with Oldsmobile in 2001. State franchise laws prevent a car company from simply ending a brand. Closing down Oldsmobile cost the company around $2 billion.&lt;br /&gt;(...)&lt;br /&gt;Pontiac has been starved of hot new products for two decades. The current lineup consists of the Vibe (a twin of the Toyota Matrix and engineered by Toyota, built at the joint-venture NUMMI plant in Calif.), the G6/G5, Pontiac Torrent (twin of the Chevy Equinox) and the G8 sedan. The G8 has been well received by auto journalists since its debut last year, but the large sedan category is so soft and sleepy that few have noticed. The Pontiac Solstice roadster convertible, while also well received by journalists, is such a niche product that it can’t hold up the whole brand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(...)&lt;br /&gt;At the core of GM’s problems is that it does not have, and has not had, enough resources to feed eight brands with unique products, and then the resources to feed each brand with unique and competitive brand campaigns. Every industry analyst and consultant has told GM management that for 20 years. It is one of the reasons that Pontiac, Buick and Saturn in particular have had a revolving door of brand campaigns—each new brand chief groping in the dark for a new big idea that will kick-start bigger interest in these product portfolios.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The contrast with Toyota and Honda is astonishing. Toyota manages a 14.9% market share (throughOctober) with just its one brand. Yes, it has added Scion and Lexus. But the Toyota brand is amazingly efficient by putting so many efficiently produced vehicles under its flagship brand. Ditto Honda, whish has a 9.8% share.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hummer, Pontiac and Saab together only manage a 2.5% share of the U.S. market, and I’m willing to bet at least .5 of that is rental fleet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nah….GM doesn’t have too many brands.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A few years ago, ad agency Deutsch, which currently handles advertising for the Saturn brand, cooked up a brand positioning for Pontiac that focused on the gritty side of Detroit, and surrounded the brand with music reminiscent of Bruce Springsteen. The strategy was centered on performance, street rods and American car culture. But the decision was made that while the positioning was attractive, GM couldn’t fund a product program that would live up to the ads.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;GM has been merging dealerships into a single network of GMC/Buick/Pontiac stores wherever it can. That way, each dealer can manage a single showroom of products that has depth and breadth of sports cars, sedans, SUVs and trucks. But that strategy also depends on supporting three different, attractive brand strategies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If GM can execute this plan, that would leave it with Chevy, Cadillac, Saturn, Buick and GMC. One of the arguments for keeping Buick is how well it sells in China. The Chinese are mad for the Buick brand. I’m not entirely sure, though, that GM would lose sales in China if it killed the brand in the U.S. Sure, some brands are global. But I’m thinking Buick would do just fine in China without U.S. sales.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, we are down to Chevy, Cadillac, Saturn and GMC. GMC sells well, and GM execs have long said there is now reason to kill it. There are a flock of consumers who go for the “Professional Grade” nonsense. GMC is, after, all just a slightly stepped of version of Chevy trucks and SUVs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is much argument for killing Saturn, too, leaving GM to concentrate in the U.S. on Chevy and Cadillac as the company. Indeed, without the GMC/Buick/Pontiac sales channel, I don’t know how you would support GMC as a brand, unless you engineered a rapid consolidation of retail distribution perhaps selling GMC through Chevy or Cadillac dealerships.&lt;br /&gt;(...)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.businessweek.com/the_thread/brandnewday/archives/2008/11/gm_pondering_br.html?campaign_id=rss_daily"&gt;http://www.businessweek.com/the_thread/brandnewday/archives/2008/11/gm_pondering_br.html?campaign_id=rss_daily&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8276188193958680084-3372549467146287863?l=go-global-marketing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/feeds/3372549467146287863/comments/default' title='Enviar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8276188193958680084&amp;postID=3372549467146287863' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/3372549467146287863'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/3372549467146287863'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/2008/11/gesto-de-marcas.html' title='Gestão de marcas'/><author><name>Ana Maria Soares</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09628862730469977738</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SNR_M98jX1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/5fBX9RFju3s/S220/Ana_pagina.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276188193958680084.post-7273497995822654351</id><published>2008-11-28T12:47:00.000Z</published><updated>2008-12-13T01:35:23.900Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mercados emergentes'/><title type='text'>India vs. China</title><content type='html'>Juntos, a China e a India representam um terço da humanidade.

O artigo abaixo, que transcrevo de Marketing Daily, aborda esta questão, realçando que a vantagem das marcas locais nem sempre é inequívoca http://www.mediapost.com/publications/?fa=Articles.showArticleHomePage&amp;art_aid=95148) : &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Embrace Cultural Diversity? Ignore It At Your Peril  &lt;br /&gt;by Nigel Hollis, Friday, Nov 21, 2008 5:00 AM ET &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For brand marketers today, "global" is increasingly the name of the game. Long the prerogative of American and European brands, now Chinese, Indian, Mexican and Brazilian brands are seeking to establish their position as global players. Underlying this push to globalize brands is the assumption that the world is becoming more homogeneous. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If people's needs, wants and desires are becoming more similar, then marketers can engage new consumers with little need to adapt either the brand or its marketing communication. But this assumption may well be incorrect. Marketers who assume that the world is becoming more similar risk undermining their chances of success on the world stage. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The world has, in some ways, shrunk. One only has to look at how the sub-prime meltdown in the U.S. and subsequent financial turmoil have affected people from Beijing to Barcelona and from Sydney to Santiago to realize that we live in a global economy. But while the financial ramifications of current events may affect people around the world, they experience the effects locally. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most people's frame of reference is still very local. They shop in the local stores. They support the local team, visit the local bar, listen to local radio stations and read the local newspaper. Many of the brands they buy are local, not global--even if those brands are often owned by multinational corporations. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fact that most people rarely experience a world other than that in which they were brought up has important ramifications for brands. In a survey conducted earlier this year by Millward Brown comparing global and local brands across five product categories and eight countries, we found that being seen as part of a country's national culture was a significant driver of purchase intent for all brands. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Local brands, however, scored higher on average than global ones. Local brands, therefore, have an inherent advantage that global brands must seek to counter by becoming as close to local culture as possible. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Successful global marketers recognize this fact and adapt their offering appropriately. The Coke you drink in Mexico is not the same as the one you drink in the U.S.; it is made with cane sugar, not corn fructose. The advertising you see for Dell in India is different from that elsewhere, designed specifically to appeal to small and medium businesses in that country. These brands have become successful by embracing regional and cultural differences, not ignoring them. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many brands have learned at their expense that what works in one country does not always work in the next. Home Depot has been incredibly successful in North America, including Mexico, but failed to establish its presence in Argentina and Chile. Strong local competition and a failure to understand and adapt to local needs and culture resulted in the sale of the company's operations in those countries in 2001. And there is good reason to believe that in the future it will become more important to adapt global brand offerings to meet local preferences, not less. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While Western brands remain aspirational to consumers in developing economies, rising incomes will not only allow people to indulge their desire for a more Western lifestyle, but will also enable them to celebrate their own culture and identity. For instance, in developed economies as diverse as France, the UK and New Zealand, minority languages such as Breton, Welsh and Maori are undergoing a revival as people seek to re-establish their cultural identities. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Trends in Internet consumption also support the case that the world is not becoming homogenized. As the number of people with Internet access grows ever greater, the international share of Internet traffic is reported to be decreasing. This trend is driven in part by well-known global sites like YouTube and Facebook, which are seeking to localize their offering, but also by the increase in sites and blogs designed to address local issues with a local audience. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While the Japanese and English battle it out as the most popular blogging languages, Farsi entered the Top 10 list in 2007 with 1% of the posts measured. Although the Internet allows brands to reach out to people with common interests that cut across geographies, mass-market brands will still need to localize their appeal using both new and traditional media. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Global Target Group Index data confirm that higher incomes do not lead to homogenized cultural values or brand affiliation. We observe similar values between rich and poor within a country, but major differences between people with relatively high standards of living across countries. It is the minority of people who have both higher incomes and the experience of international travel that are most likely to buy global brands. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The dynamics of building a strong brand on a global basis are complex and challenging, and there is good reason to believe that it may become more so, not less. Rather than becoming more homogenous, the world is fragmenting. For some product and service categories, a strong, local brand may be far more profitable than a global one. Critical to success, whether global or local, will be a good understanding of how a brand needs to adapt its offering to meet local preferences and values. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nigel Hollis is chief global analyst at Millward Brown and author of the new book, The Global Brand, and Straight Talk with Nigel Hollis (www.mb-blog.com).  &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8276188193958680084-5784759363953277428?l=go-global-marketing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/feeds/5784759363953277428/comments/default' title='Enviar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8276188193958680084&amp;postID=5784759363953277428' title='1 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/5784759363953277428'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/5784759363953277428'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/2008/11/global-vs-local.html' title='Global vs. local'/><author><name>Ana Maria Soares</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09628862730469977738</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SNR_M98jX1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/5fBX9RFju3s/S220/Ana_pagina.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276188193958680084.post-7768232277801591719</id><published>2008-11-22T08:13:00.000Z</published><updated>2008-11-22T08:19:50.977Z</updated><title type='text'>Recrutamento -

Um novo relatório do just-style acredita que haverá quebras na actividade de potências do aprovisionamento de vestuário como a Índia e a China, assim como um crescimento continuado por parte de novas fontes em ascensão como o Vietname e o Bangladesh. A diminuição no número de unidades para cada estilo e a aceleração do tempo para chegar ao mercado vão também continuar a pressionar a cadeia de fornecimento.&lt;br /&gt;Os 15 principais países exportadores foram responsáveis por 82% dos 600 mil milhões de dólares que representaram o mercado mundial de vestuário em 2007, de acordo com um novo relatório desenvolvido pelo just-style. No entanto, o “Global market review of tomorrow’s apparel industry – forecasts to 2014” também aponta significativos atrasos na actividade de potências do aprovisionamento de vestuário como a Índia e a China, onde as greves e o aumento dos custos de produção e transporte estão a prejudicar as empresas desses países.&lt;br /&gt;O relatório examina o mercado de vestuário actual, bem como as tendências actuais e de que forma irão afectar o mercado de vestuário no futuro. Discute também os futuros mercados de subcontratação por país, mostrando como e porque razão os países se vão tornar – ou deixam de o ser – players globais. E ainda realiza a análise das relações entre fornecedores e compradores, assim como o impacto da globalização em países e linhas de produtos específicas.&lt;br /&gt;Velocidade e valorOs fornecedores e os compradores estão cada vez mais a procurar valor e velocidade para o mercado em vez dos custos mais baixos, de acordo com o relatório. Os países que têm os EUA como principal mercado de exportação sofreram leves reveses nas exportações de vestuário durante o abrandamento económico sentido de forma generalizada em 2008. Mesmo assim, as empresas em países da América Central deverão evidenciar um crescimento mais forte no aprovisionamento de vestuário de 2008 a 2014, ajudado por concessões comerciais especiais, desde que utilizem tecidos e outros inputs com origem nos EUA.&lt;br /&gt;De igual forma, diversas nações africanas estão a utilizar as vantagens oferecidas pelo AGOA (African Growth and Opportunity Act), para aumentar significativamente as suas exportações para os EUA e outros países. Mas este crescimento tem advindo do decréscimo de competitividade da empresa média chinesa, na sequência do aumento do custo do trabalho, da valorização da moeda chinesa, dos preços elevados das matérias primas e de uma redução nos descontos do imposto de exportação (que passaram para 14% a 1 de Novembro).&lt;br /&gt;Segundo o documento elaborado pelo Just-style, espera-se um pequeno aumento nas exportações quando os EUA eliminarem, no final do corrente ano, as restrições à importação de determinadas categorias de vestuário chinês, mas os observadores da indústria prevêem que a posição da Índia e China seja definitivamente ocupada por novas origens como o Vietname e o Bangladesh a partir de 2010.&lt;br /&gt;O abrandamento geral das economias da América do Norte e da Europa é outro factor importante nas medíocres taxas de crescimento observadas em 2007 e 2008.&lt;br /&gt;Na segunda parte deste artigo são analisadas as tendências internacionais associadas com a produção e o aprovisionamento de vestuário.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a name="473"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.portugaltextil.com/tabid/63/xmmid/407/xmid/35108/xmview/2/NoticiaID/35108/Default.aspx"&gt;http://www.portugaltextil.com/tabid/63/xmmid/407/xmid/35108/xmview/2/NoticiaID/35108/Default.aspx&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8276188193958680084-6073864725563414007?l=go-global-marketing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/feeds/6073864725563414007/comments/default' title='Enviar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8276188193958680084&amp;postID=6073864725563414007' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/6073864725563414007'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/6073864725563414007'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/2008/11/previses-para-o-mercado-global-de.html' title='Previsões para o mercado global de vestuário'/><author><name>Ana Maria Soares</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09628862730469977738</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SNR_M98jX1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/5fBX9RFju3s/S220/Ana_pagina.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276188193958680084.post-6933867295957206693</id><published>2008-11-13T10:09:00.000Z</published><updated>2008-11-13T10:13:59.656Z</updated><title type='text'>Portugueses na China</title><content type='html'>Da edição de hoje da Newsletter Portugal Textil, destaco uma notícia sobre os esforços de entrada de marcas portuguesas de Têxteis-lar no mercado Chinês.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;Na segunda edição da Interior Lifestyle China – a única feira da região para produtos e acessórios para a casa – Portugal apresenta-se com cinco marcas têxteis dispostas a convencer os milhares de compradores que passarão pelo recinto do Shanghai Exhibition Centre da qualidade, inovação, design e muito bom gosto dos artigos de têxteis-lar nacionais. Home Concept, Gierlings Velpor, Dilina Têxteis, Innovar e Naturapura partem à descoberta do mercado chinês com o apoio da Associação Selectiva Moda e do QREN, onde vão apresentar os seus produtos entre os mais de 180 expositores com lugar reservado na feira.&lt;br /&gt;Os expositores internacionais são, de resto, numerosos e, para além de Portugal, a feira conta com delegações provenientes da Alemanha, Espanha, França, Reino Unido, Japão ou Itália, que se irão dividir pelas três temáticas diferentes de produtos e artigos: “Dining”, “Giving” e “Living”. Na vertente “Dining” vão estar patentes artigos em vidro, porcelana, cerâmica, produtos e outros utensílios domésticos relacionados com a mesa e a cozinha; a “Giving” dará um destaque especial aos artigos de interior para casa, onde os visitantes poderão encontrar artesanato, velas, produtos e acessórios de decoração, entre outros itens para oferta; e no “Living” destacam-se peças de mobiliário e acessórios, espelhos, molduras para fotos ou quadros e acessórios para jardins.&lt;br /&gt;(...)&lt;br /&gt;Uma iniciativa que potencia ainda mais as oportunidades de negócio num mercado em rápido crescimento. No primeiro semestre de 2007, as vendas mensais de artigos de decoração e interior na China aumentaram 54% em relação ao mesmo período do ano anterior e as vendas de retalho totalizaram os 9 mil milhões de dólares nos primeiros 11 meses de 2007. Um crescimento resultante do aumento dos rendimentos médios da população e do êxodo para as cidades, que tem levado a que cerca de 20 milhões de pessoas se mudem das zonas rurais para as zonas citadinas, alterando, assim, profundamente a sua relação com a casa.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;PS: Se precisarem de quem fale Chinês, já sabem que podem contar comigo!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8276188193958680084-6933867295957206693?l=go-global-marketing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/feeds/6933867295957206693/comments/default' title='Enviar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8276188193958680084&amp;postID=6933867295957206693' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/6933867295957206693'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/6933867295957206693'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/2008/11/portugueses-na-china.html' title='Portugueses na China'/><author><name>Ana Maria Soares</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09628862730469977738</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SNR_M98jX1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/5fBX9RFju3s/S220/Ana_pagina.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276188193958680084.post-945065745597708321</id><published>2008-11-10T12:46:00.000Z</published><updated>2008-11-18T22:40:32.733Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mercados emergentes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Marcas globais'/><title type='text'>Rankings</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SRmDrPUPBeI/AAAAAAAAAY4/hLIFhWwKMiM/s1600-h/ranking.JPG"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;A Interbrand divulga hoje o ranking das melhores marcas russas (Best Russian Brands 2008). A Rússia é um mercado emergente, tão interessante quanto difícil para as empresas portuguesas. Apesar de todos os esforços, incluindo de caracter político, as barreiras não tarifárias à entrada neste país incluem histórias desconcertantes de dificuldades que obrigam a uma duplicação (e triplicação e por aí fora...) de esforços. Para as empresas portuguesas, quantas vezes com recursos e competências limitadas em marketing internacional, lidar com todas as barreiras alfandegárias, burocráticas e negociais deste imenso país é um tremendo desafio. &lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Relativamente ao ranking , de salientar (e não estranhar), a presença de três marcas do sector das telecomunicações...

Aproximas-te dela e sussurras:&lt;br /&gt;- Sou muito bom na cama !&lt;br /&gt;Isto é Marketing Directo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2º Exemplo: Estás numa festa com um grupo de amigos e vês uma senhora muito atraente... Um dos teus amigos aproxima-se dela e sussurra:&lt;br /&gt;- Este senhor, aqui, é muito bom na cama !&lt;br /&gt;Isto é Publicidade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3º Exemplo: Estás numa festa e vês uma senhora muito atraente... Aproximas-te dela e pedes-lhe o seu número de telemóvel. No dia &gt;seguinte telefonas-lhe e dizes:&lt;br /&gt;- Sou muito bom na cama !&lt;br /&gt;Isto é Telemarketing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4º Exemplo: Estás numa festa e vês uma senhora, tua conhecida, muito atraente... Aproximas-te dela, refrescas-lhe a memória dizendo:&lt;br /&gt;- Lembras-te como sou bom na cama ?&lt;br /&gt;Isto é CRM (Customer Relationship Management).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5º Exemplo: Estás numa festa e vês uma senhora muito atraente... Levantas-te,&lt;br /&gt;ajeitas a roupa, aproximas-te dela e serves-lhe uma bebida, abres a porta quando sai,&lt;br /&gt;apanhas a carteira quando cai, ofereces um cigarro e dizes-lhe:&lt;br /&gt;- Sou muito bom na cama !&lt;br /&gt;Isto são Relações Públicas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6º Exemplo: Estás numa festa e vês uma senhora muito atraente... Ela aproxima-se de ti e diz-te:&lt;br /&gt;- Ouvi dizer que és muito bom na cama !&lt;br /&gt;Isto é Branding: o poder da marca.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7º Exemplo: Estás numa festa como empregado e há outra empregada muito atraente... Aproximas-te dela e dizes-lhe:&lt;br /&gt;- Sou muito bom na cama !&lt;br /&gt;Isto é B2B (Business to Business).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8º Exemplo: Estás numa festa como empregado e vês uma senhora muito atraente que te pede uma bebida. Aproximas-te dela e dizes-lhe:&lt;br /&gt;- Sou muito bom na cama ! Isto é B2C (Business to Consumer).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9º Exemplo: Estás numa festa e procuras a posição perfeita para estar perto do balcão, junto à passagem para a casa de banho, que seja local de passagem das melhores raparigas, de modo que a luz realce a tua pele bronzeada, evidenciando o teu melhor lado de forma que atraias o maior número de mulheres atraentes e tentas convencê-las que és bom na cama.&lt;br /&gt;Isto é GIS (Geographic Information System) ou Geomarketing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10º Exemplo: Estás numa festa, vês uma mulher muito atraente, aproximas-te dela e dizes-lhe: - Sou muito bom na cama !&lt;br /&gt;Quando na realidade não dás uma para a caixa...! Isto é Publicidade Enganosa!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8276188193958680084-5536318664785492766?l=go-global-marketing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/feeds/5536318664785492766/comments/default' title='Enviar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8276188193958680084&amp;postID=5536318664785492766' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/5536318664785492766'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/5536318664785492766'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/2008/10/marketing-em-10-lies.html' title='Marketing em 10 lições'/><author><name>Ana Maria Soares</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09628862730469977738</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SNR_M98jX1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/5fBX9RFju3s/S220/Ana_pagina.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276188193958680084.post-8099218263917882186</id><published>2008-10-31T06:41:00.000Z</published><updated>2008-11-01T06:50:53.106Z</updated><title type='text'>Observatório Mcom - Marktest</title><content type='html'>Da NEWSLETTER Nº 562 da Marktest (30 Outubro 2008), transcrevo alguns dados sobre os principais indicadores sobre audiências de televisão e internet para a semana de 13 a 19 de Outubro de 2008.

Desde 2005 que não participo nesta conferência bienal de Marketing organizada pela Academy of Marketing Sciences. Tal como a generalidade das conferências americanas, é uma conferência marcada pela informalidade e terá lugar em Oslo de 22 a 25 de Junho.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;É uma boa oportunidade para voltar à Noruega, onde estive há alguns anos para participar na EMAC, em Bergen. Nessa altura aproveitei para, com amigos, atravessar o país no "Norway in a Nutshell" que incluía trajectos de comboio, barco e autocarro. É um país muito bonito, que me surpreendeu pela afabilidade das pessoas, pelo gosto pela natureza e pelo ar livre e que, ainda hoje, me ajuda a explicar as dimensões de Hofstede nas aulas sobre o Ambiente cultural de Marketing Internacional.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hofstede propôs que quatro dimensões culturais (uma quinta seria adicionada posteriormente) distinguem as culturas nacionais: Distância hierárquica, Individualismo-colectivismo, Femininidade-masculinidade e Aversão à incerteza. Uso a minha estada na Noruega para ilustrar particularmente o conceito de distância hierárquica. Em Oslo, ficamos alojados num hotel muito próximo de um grande parque, que atravessávamos para chegar ao centro da cidade. Passávamos junto de um edifício, rodeado de gravilha e de umas correntes assentes em pequenos mecos de pedra. Havia guardas junto do edifício e assumimos que se tratava de um quartel. A consulta do mapa, e Oslo não é uma cidade muito grande, revelou que estávamos perto do palácio Real, mas não o conseguíamos descobrir. Levámos algum tempo a perceber que o dito edifício era o Palácio Real. Na verdade, foi com alguma perplexidade que percebemos que aquele edifício, simples, pouco maior do que os outros edifícios da cidade, e tão próximo, era o Palácio Real. Nos países do Sul da Europa, a elevada distância hierárquica (power distance no original) entre ricos e pobres, chefes e soburdinados, pais e filhos, até professores e alunos, traduz-se numa necessidade de posse e exibição de símbolos de status. Assim, tipicamente as casas, o carro e todos os objectos pessoais são usados como sinalizadores de posição social. Os títulos são importantes. As casas das pessoas mais importantes / ricas reconhecem-se à distância. As pessoas são mais formais na forma de vestir, etc... Os países do Norte da Europa, e nomeadamente nos países escandinavos, são países de baixa distância hierárquica. Isso significa, entre outras coisas, que as diferenças de classe não são tão marcadas nem tão enfatizadas socialmente. Alguns anos mais tarde, lembro-me de ler a notícia de que tinha sido encontrada uma plantação de cannabis no jardim, junto do Palácio Real e achei uma delícia! Imagino que hoje, as medidas de segurança pós 11 de Setembro tenham transformado aquele espaço e tais exemplos de empreendedorismo já não sejam possíveis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Já tenho encontrado outros exemplos que ilustram a baixa distância hierárquica dos países escandinavos nas minhas idas ao dentista (aproveito para ler aquelas revistas do jet set...). Por exemplo, já li sobre o Rei da Suécia ter sido multado por excesso de velocidade. Alguma vez isso acontece com detentores de cargos políticos importantes no Sul da Europa? Também me recordo&lt;br /&gt;da notícia segundo a qual o rei tinha visto recusada a utilização do seu cartão de crédito numa loja por não ter um documento de identificação. O imbróglio só se resolveu quando alguém convenceu a vendedora a aceitar o perfil da cara da moeda nacional como um comprovativo de identificação!...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Há uma série de outros exemplos de como as dimensões de Hofstede tem implicações muito concretas no comportamento das pessoas. Para as aulas de Marketing internacional, interessam-nos as implicações em termos de negociação e no comportamento dos consumidores, como podemos basear-nos nelas para melhor negociar e comunicar em diferentes culturas, mas para isso recomendo a aula de MI na próxima semana!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8276188193958680084-14377478536298716?l=go-global-marketing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/feeds/14377478536298716/comments/default' title='Enviar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8276188193958680084&amp;postID=14377478536298716' title='1 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/14377478536298716'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/14377478536298716'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/2008/10/noruega.html' title='Noruega'/><author><name>Ana Maria Soares</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09628862730469977738</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SNR_M98jX1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/5fBX9RFju3s/S220/Ana_pagina.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276188193958680084.post-7997044827256083873</id><published>2008-10-14T11:58:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2008-10-16T02:18:59.531+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Actividade pedagógica'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Começaram as aulas de Tópicos Avançados de Gestão Estratégica no Mestrado em Marketing e Gestão Estratégica.

De facto, aqui, a convergência acontece de facto em relação a questões como a regulamentação e aspectos político-económicos. Mas, o que se passa com os consumidores? Estarão os Europeus a convergir em termos de gostos e comportamento? Esta questão tem suscitado diversas abordagens do ponto de vista do Marketing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Os humoristas também se têm debruçado sobre esta questão. Vi pela primeira vez o postal abaixo em Bielefeld, onde me dei aulas no âmbito de staff exchange do Programa Socrates/Erasmus. Acabei por comprá-lo em Londres uns meses depois.

I believe that one item - number 130198706427 - may be your work."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Assinava uma Senior Lecturer de uma Universidade Inglesa, que eu não conhecia. Não percebi logo do que se tratava. Pesquisei o item em causa e fiquei siderada... Sem fôlego, mesmo! A minha Tese de Doutoramento estava à venda no eBay!!... Eu não estava a vender a minha tese de Doutoramente no eBay!... Quem estava a vender a minha Tese de Doutoramento no eBay??? A minha rica tese, que me custou tanto a fazer! Custou... Aquilo foi-me praticamente arrancado das entranhas... (eu sei que é um pouco melodramático, mas acho que quem fez, ou está a fazer, doutoramento sabe do que estou a falar...). A revisão de literatura, resultante da leitura ensonada de centenas de artigos (não, não estou a exagerar, foram mesmo centenas... ), entre o nascimento do J. e do N., depois de meses e meses de noites mal dormidas,à venda no eBay?!!...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nada me poderia ter preparado para uma notícia destas. É certo que, algumas semanas antes, a consulta das estatísticas de downloads da tese no RepositoriUM da Universidade (motivada por um pedido da tese que me chegou via Reitoria e que achei suspeito) me tinha deixado abismada: Tinha havido cerca de 1 milhar de downloads da tese! Até do Irão, da Guiana... eu sei lá! Nessa altura, também esperneei. Quis passar a tese da modalidade de acesso livre para acesso restrito. Não foi autorizado. Explicaram-me que tal iria contra a filosofia geral do RepositóriUM de disponibilizar a sua produção científica... A menos que se tratasse de "circunstâncias muito excepcionais, graves e devidamente fundamentadas"... Mais trabalho? Estava tão ocupada com a Direcção de Curso! Deixei passar...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Foi, portanto, uma surpresa. Comuniquei aos meus orientadores, à minha Escola e à minha Univerdade, que entendia tão lesados quanto eu. A resposta chegou com o parecer do GAPI - Gabinete de Apoio à Promoção da Propiredade Intelectual. Trata-se de facto de um ilícito criminal que viola os direitos de autor... No entanto, os direito de autor pertencem-me em exclusivo pelo que me compete agir enquanto titular dos mesmos... Estão mesmo a ver: mais trabalho! Diga-se que pela altura do ano lectivo em que esta informação chegou, a minha energia já nem chegava para me indignar. 2007/2008 ( e os que o antecederam... ) foi um ano duro... Achei que tinha de pensar durante uns tempos... E pensando bem, tratava-se de um (ou uma) empreendedora inteligente!... Vejam como anunciava o meu trabalho:&lt;br /&gt;100,000 words - 331 pages&lt;br /&gt;Widely Accredited&lt;br /&gt;Expertly written throughout&lt;br /&gt;Excellent literature review&lt;br /&gt;Many contemporary models used&lt;br /&gt;Top quality!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obviamente, o facto de ter escrito em Inglês explica o interesse pela tese. Trata-se de um tema que, sendo importante em Marketing internacional, é extremamente difícil de abordar do ponto de vista da investigação académica. Parti para a Tese com a intenção de abordar aquela que eu via como o cerne da decisão de globalizar: será que ao nível dos consumidores se verifica uma tendência para a convergência, viabilizando assim a globalização, ou a cultura mantêm-se como uma influência determinante que, em última análise, limita o potencial de estandardização? Mas um trabalho de doutoramento tem regras e condicionalismos muito próprios e acabei por fazer um trabalho mais focalizado com o título "The influence of culture on consumers: Exploratory and risk taking behaviour".  Ainda assim, é um trabalho que tem despertado algum interesse devido a um interesse crescente pela temática da influência da cultura. Na verdade, depois do entusiasmo pelas promessas da globalização gerado pelo artigo de Levitt de 1983, "The Globalization of Markets", muito se tem escrito sobre se a cultura em marketing internacional e comportamento do consumidor. Aliás, um artigo que publiquei em co-autoria com M. Farhangmehr e A. Shoham, sobre esta questão no Journal of Business Research ficou em 9º lugar no ScienceDirect Top 25 relativo ao período de Abril -Junho de 2007 (Esta lista baseia-se no número de downloads de artigos, na área de Business, Management e Accounting a partir da Science Direct...)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Durante muito tempo, mantive o parecer na secretária, à minha frente. Não cheguei a fazer nada. Fui de férias sem resolver o assunto, que, apesar de tudo me atormentava, mas não tinha energia para me envolver numa batalha legal sobre este assunto. Recentemente, voltei a pesquisar a Tese no eBay. Já não se encontra à venda!... Imagino que não fosse lá muito bom negócio... Ou, pelo contrário, talvez tenha ficado rico, quem sabe? O empreeendedorismo à escala global compensa!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8276188193958680084-4109813949873740766?l=go-global-marketing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/feeds/4109813949873740766/comments/default' title='Enviar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8276188193958680084&amp;postID=4109813949873740766' title='2 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/4109813949873740766'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8276188193958680084/posts/default/4109813949873740766'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://go-global-marketing.blogspot.com/2008/10/empreendedorismo-e-globalizao.html' title='Empreendedorismo e Globalização'/><author><name>Ana Maria Soares</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09628862730469977738</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bBVmX-I9M6A/SNR_M98jX1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/5fBX9RFju3s/S220/Ana_pagina.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry></feed>
