Empreendedorismo na gestão pública: aplicação dos conceitos originários da iniciativa privada nas instituições governamentais

Abstract

Entrepreneurship is much debated in the private sphere, but its concepts are popularly regarded as natures and economic bonds. To deepen the subject, the present work aims to explore the practical meanings of the fundamental concepts of entrepreneurship and to analyze them from the point of view of public management in an integrated and practicable way. A bibliographical, exploratory and methodological research was carried out, with a deductive method, to understand the definitions of the terms used in private entrepreneurship and the consequent approach from the perspective of the governmental administration. The results point to the clarification on the practices and the entrepreneurial aspects. Thus, it can be said that entrepreneurship is the set of voluntary and programmed actions, capable of transforming people and organizations into expert identifiers and opportunities takers. However, in order to make entrepreneurship work feasible, the public authorities, as well as those who carry out the activities, must help to make the environment receptive, appropriate and promising, since it is useless for only one side to progress while the another creates obstacles. The text will show that the possibility of applying values depends on a lot of will and dynamic and applied actions.
