Abstract
During the last decade there has been a vocal discussion pertaining to economic growth. Nevertheless, a consensus has not been reached among the different studies and various authors. Moreover, while some focus upon the economic growth based on the
traditional resources, others choose to highlight the technological changes, and others still pay special attention to the innovation
phenomenon. The latter surpasses the technological change phenomenon to a large extent.
In light of the above, this paper endeavours to reflect, question and relate those factors on which hinge the importance of the human
resources in the economic dynamism. Yet, in order for these HR, in effective terms, to become a strategic organizational asset,
there is a need to verify whether the education that is supplied by the market does indeed perpetrate the entrepreneurial future
capacity.
This analysis is related to the fact that we are experiencing the upsurge of a new economic reality, already labelled as an economy
based on knowledge where learning takes on a fundamental role. Nevertheless, because the economic agents’ reactions towards
this new reality appear to be conflicting we shall endeavour to analyse the extent to which the perceptions’ of the students
are indeed influenced as a result of the responses of the Portuguese students taking Human Resource Management and
Management degrees. The objective of this paper is to verify whether the aforementioned degrees do indeed instil dynamism
within the minds of the assets of the future labour market so as to promote proactive and entrepreneurial behaviours. The findings
seem to demonstrate that the reason for the weak existing entrepreneurial characteristics within the people, seem to be related
to the course and the geographical as such. | Apstrakt
Tokom poslednje decenije vodila se živa rasprava u vezi sa ekonomskim razvojem. Ipak, među mnogim autorima i u
mnogim studijama nije postignut kompromis. Šta više, dok neki u težište stavljaju ekonomski rast zasnovan na tradicionalnim resursima, drugi radije naglašavaju tehnološke promene, a treći, opet, posebnu pažnju poklanjaju fenomenu
inovacija. Ovaj poslednji u velikom stepenu nadmaša fenomen tehnoloških promena.
U svetlu gore navedenog, u ovom radu analiziramo, ispitujemo i dovodimo u vezu faktore koji određuju značaj ljudskih resursa (HR) u ekonomskoj dinamičnosti. Ipak, da bi ovi HR postali strateški organizacioni kapital u efektivnom smislu,treba da se utvrdi da li nauk koji dobijamo od tržišta zaista utiče na preduzetničke sposobnosti u budućnosti.
Ova analiza se odnosi na činjenicu da smo u ovom trenutku svedoci uspona nove ekonomske realnosti, koja se već naziva
ekonomijom zasnovanom na znanju, i u kojoj osnovnu ulogu ima učenje. Ipak, pošto su reakcije ekonomskih činilaca
na ovu novu realnost izgleda suprotstavljene, pokušaćemo da analiziramo do kog stepena zaista postoji uticaj na percepcije
studenata, a na osnovu odgovora studenata u Portugaliji koji studiraju na Odseku za upravljanje ljudskim resursima
i Odseku za upravljanje. Naš cilj u ovom radu jeste da utvrdimo da li gore navedena zvanja zaista podstiču
dinamičnost u umovima onih koji će predstavljati vrednost na tržištu radne snage u budućnosti, tako što će promovisati proaktivno i preduzetničko ponašanje. Zaključci do kojih smo došli ukazuju na to da su razlozi za slabo predizetničko opredeljenje ljudi izgleda vezani za studije i za geografsku oblast kao takvu. |
