José Vitor Bomtempo Martins, D.Sc. (EQ, UFRJ) AGRADECIMENTOS A Deus, por me proporcionar tantas oportunidades, conquistas e alegrias na vida, bem como desafios e dificuldades que potencializaram o meu aprendizado e crescimento. Obrigado por colocar no meu caminho familiares e amigos maravilhosos que contribuíram para que me tornasse uma pessoa com princípios e valores. Por me ensinar que humildade, caráter, generosidade, amor e fé são os ingredientes fundamentais para a felicidade e o sucesso. Aos meus avós Elza e Gerdal, que dedicaram grande parte de suas vidas a mim sem que possuíssem nenhuma obrigação ou responsabilidade. Nunca serei capaz de retribuir-lhes um décimo do que me deram, e carregarei essa gratidão comigo por outras vidas, sempre com a esperança e empenho em cumprir essa missão. Além de me proporcionar o direito de sonhar, vocês são a personificação do amor e da caridade: com vocês aprendi o que significa ―amar sem esperar algo em troca‖. Vocês me ensinaram que existe um propósito muito maior para a vida e que a superioridade espiritual está acima de qualquer conquista material. À minha madrinha Heloisa por tomar-me como filho e dedicar a sua vida à minha criação e educação. Sua presença sempre me deu confiança e segurança para seguir em frente e acreditar no alcance dos meus objetivos. Obrigado por estar sempre disponível nos momentos de dificuldade, por possuir uma palavra de incentivo e apoio, por ouvir sem julgar e por defender-me de tudo e de todos ao longo desses anos. À minha noiva Fernanda, por ser o quarto elemento a compor os alicerces da minha vida. Mesmo chegando mais tarde, você conquistou o meu coração com tanto amor, amizade, tolerância, paciência, companheirismo e respeito. Se não possui na idade a experiência da vida, é capaz de demonstrá-la através de atitudes e ações. São poucas as pessoas que compartilham da sua pureza e luz. Você é o meu futuro, e dedicar-me-ei a tornar-lhe a pessoa mais feliz e amada do mundo. À professora Denise Fleck, não só por aceitar o desafio de me orientar para a realização desta pesquisa, mas pelo cuidado e preocupação em tornar esse processo muito maior do que uma simples relação professor-aluno. Seu papel foi além do que se espera de um professor, zelando acima de tudo pelo meu bem estar. Obrigado pelos conselhos, críticas e incentivos. Obrigado pela compreensão nos momentos em que fraquejei ou falhei. Obrigado pelo rigor com que trabalhou, estimulando-me a buscar o máximo de minha capacidade intelectual. Obrigado pela dedicação e carinho com que participa e zela pela excelência do COPPEAD. Você se tornou uma grande referência pessoal e acadêmica, e sempre serei grato por essa experiência. Você tornou o Mestrado no COPPEAD único. Aos professores Adriano Proença e José Vitor Bomtempo, que se dispuseram prontamente a fazer parte da banca de defesa da dissertação. Ao Adriano, obrigado por participar novamente do meu desenvolvimento acadêmico e profissional. Você é sem sobra de dúvidas uma das principais referências para a minha carreira, e sua participação engrandece ainda mais essa conquista. Em relação ao José Vitor, ainda que não possuíssemos uma relação anterior, foi um enorme prazer conhecê-lo e ter a possibilidade de trocar idéias e ouvir seus comentários e opiniões a respeito do trabalho, o que lhe conferiu ainda mais excelência. Aos entrevistados, que dedicaram parte de seu tempo a contribuir para a realização desta dissertação. Obrigado pela disponibilidade, sinceridade, paciência, atenção e entusiasmo. Mesmo sem citar nomes, recordo-me de cada um de vocês e suas contribuições, e sempre serei grato pela ajuda. Ao pessoal do Arquivo Nacional, em especial à Telma Roma, e da Comissão de Valores Mobiliários, que ajudaram-me com muita cordialidade e prontidão na árdua tarefa de levantar dados históricos que permitissem contar e analisar a trajetória das empresas envolvidas. Aos amigos e colegas de turma do COPPEAD, que compartilharam grande parte dos desafios, dificuldades e alegrias do Mestrado, tornando essa experiência uma das mais ricas de minha vida. A amigos de longa data como Marcos e Davi, que se mostraram fundamentais e ganharam ainda mais carinho de minha parte, e a pessoas que em tão pouco tempo me conquistaram, como Letícia, Thamy e Thiago. Um agradecimento especial a Maurício e Rodrigo Penalva, grandes companheiros de pesquisa, e a Bruno e Maria-Eugênia, fundamentais para a realização do trabalho. Aos professores do COPPEAD pela qualidade do ensino, em especial Celso Lemme, Roberto Nogueira e Vitor Almeida. À equipe da Secretaria pelo suporte e pela atenção que dedicam aos alunos, tornando nosso dia-a-dia mais fácil e deixando-nos concentrar naquilo que é principal: o estudo. O mesmo vale para a equipe da Biblioteca do COPPEAD, em especial à Eliane, que nos apóia com sua simpatia e dedicação. Aos demais funcionários, que contribuem para tornar o COPPEAD um centro de excelência em ensino em administração. À família ―Xavier de Oliveira‖, em especial Dutervil, Rosely e Mônica por acreditarem no projeto do Mestrado e participarem ativamente da sua realização. Obrigado pelo carinho, apoio e estímulo ao longo desse trabalho, bem como pela forma com que me recebem em seu lar há cinco anos, fazendo-me sentir como se fizesse parte da família desde sempre. Ao Duda, por ser um verdadeiro irmão mais velho, sempre cuidando, preocupando-se, dando bronca quando necessário, incentivando e elogiando. Por sempre trazer questionamentos e provocações mais profundos quando muitas vezes só preciso de um sim ou não. Isso é sinal de que você me entende como poucos e de que sua opinião tem uma grande capacidade transformadora sobre mim. Você é uma fonte de inspiração para a vida. A Pedro, Cassol e Danilo, grandes irmãos que desde que surgiram em minha vida só tornaram-na mais alegre e especial. Sou um sortudo por tê-los ao meu lado há tanto tempo. Vocês fecham o seleto grupo de pessoas que compartilham da minha amizade, lealdade, confiança e amor. Ao Sr. Osvaldo e à Sra. Marlene, que fazem um trabalho tão bonito de caridade à frente do Dispensário Antônio de Pádua, proporcionando conforto, amparo, luz, fé e sabedoria àqueles que necessitam. O Dispensário foi fundamental em todos os momentos da minha vida, e minha gratidão a todos que lá trabalham é enorme, em especial ao Ubiratan. Por fim, a todos os meus familiares e amigos. Tenho certeza de que cada um contribuiu de uma maneira significativa não só para essa experiência do Mestrado, mas para a minha vida. RESUMO ROMA, Sandro Luiz Costa. Desafios do sucesso no longo prazo em estratégias de reestruturação: o caso da AmBev. Rio de Janeiro, 2011. Dissertação (Mestrado em Administração de Empresas) – Instituto COPPEAD de Administração, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro, 2011. De acordo com Fleck (2009a), a observação empírica sugere que o sucesso parece gerar o fracasso, já que muitas vezes empresas bem sucedidas e admiradas num primeiro instante fracassam e se tornam alvos de críticas no futuro. Uma discussão subjacente a esse fenômeno diz respeito a como firmas e executivos definem, medem e avaliam o sucesso organizacional. Nesse sentido, o horizonte de tempo que norteia a visão de futuro e as estratégias empresariais é um dos aspectos mais relevantes, normalmente caracterizado pelo conflito entre a garantia de resultados no curto prazo e o investimento em iniciativas estratégicas de longo prazo de maturação. Dentro desse contexto, esta dissertação se propôs a compreender a forma com que estratégias de reestruturação, orientadas para a geração de valor aos acionistas no curto prazo, respondem aos desafios do sucesso no longo prazo. Pelo caráter exploratório e explanatório da pesquisa, o método adotado foi uma combinação de estudo de caso e abordagem histórica, tendo como referencial teórico o Modelo de Arquétipos de Sucesso e Fracasso Organizacional (FLECK, 2009a). Selecionou-se a AmBev como objeto de análise por ser uma empresa cuja estratégia corporativa foi desenvolvida pelo grupo pioneiro na atividade de private equity no Brasil, mas que possui ambições de longo prazo e cresce continuamente há mais de vinte anos sob o comando dos antigos sócios do Banco Garantia. Os resultados da pesquisa demonstraram que estratégias de reestruturação estão de fato comprometidas com curtos horizontes de tempo, sem aparente intenção em realizar ajustes e investimentos para o longo prazo.

    Beer: A Matter of Science and Perception 74th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Brewing Chemists June 11–15, 2011 Sanibel Harbour Marriott Resort Fort Myers, FL, U.S.A. Photo courtesy of the Lee County Visitor & Convention Bureau. “It’s these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes…” – Jimmy Buffett On behalf of the Program Committee, welcome to the 74th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Brewing Chemists! This is the first time our meeting has been in Fort Myers, Florida, nicknamed the “City of Palms.” Our meeting location is right on the Intercoastal Waterway right across from Sanibel Island, making it a perfect place to get away from the daily grind (brewing pun intended) and to really focus on The Science of Beer. This year, several elements of the program came together to create our theme, Beer: A Matter of Science and Perception. ASBC meetings Jeff Cornell draw many of the best brewing scientists from around the world to present their work and share their knowledge. But scientific research applied to beer and brewing is rarely black or white. Part of that “gray” area involves another science – perception. The way we perceive things touches our professional lives on a daily basis, whether it’s a sensory evaluation of beer or how we go about solving problems. So to explore Table of Contents these areas further, the program features two outstanding speakers: Jeannine Delwiche on “Impact of Multimodal Sensory Input on Perception of Beer Flavor,” and Karl Siebert on “Changing Schedule at a Glance ............... 3 Paradigms.” Also on the perception theme, you’ll find a pre-meeting short course addressing the Program many aspects of beer haze and colloidal stabilization and a sensory workshop focused on mouth- Friday .................................

  • Our Society Lacks Consistently Defined Attitudes
    ‘OUR SOCIETY LACKS CONSISTENTLY DEFINED ATTITUDES TOWARDS THE BLACK BEAR’: THE HISTORY OF BLACK BEAR HUNTING AND MANAGEMENT IN ONTARIO, 1912-1987 by MICHAEL COMMITO, B.A. (HONS), M.A. McMaster University DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2015) Hamilton, Ontario (History) TITLE: ‘Our society lacks consistently defined attitudes towards the black bear’: The History of Black Bear Hunting and Management in Ontario, 1912-1987 AUTHOR: Michael Commito, B.A. (Hons) (Laurentian University), M.A. (Laurentian University) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Ken Cruikshank NUMBER OF PAGES: vii, 282 ii ABSTRACT What kind of animal was a black bear? Were black bears primarily pests, pets, furbearers or game animals? Farmers, conservationists, tourists, trappers, and hunters in early twentieth- century Ontario could not agree. Even as the century progressed, ideas about bears remained twisted and there was often very little consensus about what the animal represented. These varying perceptions complicated the efforts of the provincial Department of Game and Fisheries and its successor agencies, the Department of Lands and Forests and the Ministry of Natural Resources, to develop coherent bear management policies. Perceptions about black bears often conflicted and competed with one another and at no one time did they have a single meaning in Ontario. The image of Ontario’s black bears has been continuously negotiated as human values, attitudes, and policies have changed over time. As a result, because of various and often competing perspectives, the province’s bear management program, for most of the twentieth century, was very loose and haphazard because the animal had never been uniformly defined or valued. Examining the history of these ambiguous viewpoints towards the black bear in Ontario provides us with a snapshot of how culture intersects with our natural resources and may pose challenges for management.
