IntroductionThis research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the SER project, which focuses on autonomy and curricular flexibility. Additionally, it seeks to assess the profiles of students from three Portuguese professional schools in relation to their social and emotional skills, self-concept and personal development after project implementation.MethodsThe sample comprised of 381 students aged between 15 and 20 years. The study employed a quantitative methodology with data collected using the Social and Emotional Skills Questionnaire, the Self-Concept Scale, and the Positive Youth Development Scale.ResultsSchool 1 includes students who tend to exhibit high levels of Social Awareness and Cooperation. School 2, while not excelling in any particular competencies, shows above-average values across all assessed dimensions. Finally, students at School 3 demonstrate elevated levels in Interpersonal Relationships, Self-Esteem, Self-Management, Self-Concept, and Decision-Making.DiscussionIt was found that student profiles differ depending on the school they attend, and it was found that statistically significant differences occur between School 1 and School 2 in Decision-Making and between School 1 and School 3 in Interpersonal Relationships.

IntroductionThe growing competitiveness and the importance of data availability for organizations have created a demand for intelligent information systems capable of analyzing data to support strategy and decision-making. Organizations are generating more and more data due to new technologies associated with Industry 4.0 and Logistics 4.0, making it essential to transform this data into relevant information to streamline decision-making processes. This paper examines the influence of these technologies on gaining a competitive advantage, specifically in a logistics company, which is scarce in the literature.MethodsA case study was conducted in a Portuguese company using the Delphi method with 61 participants—employees who use the company’s integrated BI tool daily. The participants were presented with a questionnaire via the online platform Welphi, requiring qualitative responses to various statements based on the literature review and the results of semi-structured meetings with the company.ResultsThe study aimed to identify areas where employees believe more investment/ development is needed to optimize processes and improve the use of the BI tool in the future. The results indicate that BI is a crucial technology when aligned with a company’s objectives and needs, highlighting the necessity of top management’s involvement in optimizing the BI tool. Encouraging employees to use the BI tool emerged as a significant factor, underscoring the importance of leadership in innovative projects to achieve greater competitive advantage for the company.DiscussionThis study aims to understand the importance of Business Intelligence (BI) and how its functionalities should be adapted according to a company’s strategy and objectives to optimize decision-making processes. Thereby, the discussion focused on the essential role of BI technologies in leveraging the company’s competitive advantage.

Abstract In the educational context, three models of leadership with increasing importance - ethics, transformational and moral - have emerged, being the most developed the model of transformational leadership. This study aimed to analyze the internal structure of leadership questionnaires in the educational context and to know the construct validity of the ethical, moral and transformational dimensions of leadership in the Portuguese educational context. In a sample of 204 teachers, it was possible to verify the behavior of the three questionnaires in the validity of the construct and in the reliability. Leadership scales (Ethical Leadership Questionnaire, Transformational Leadership Questionnaire and Moral Leadership Questionnaire) presented good levels of adjustment to the factor structure and reliability values between acceptable and excellent. Considering the results obtained of innovative character in the level of the psychometric study of the different measures in the educational context will be relevant, in the future, to assess their concurrent validity in different samples of teachers.

Abstrac The self-determination theory proposes a multidimensional concept of motivation and distinguishes how different types of motivation can be promoted or discouraged. For the application of the theory of self-determination to the educational context, this study aimed to adapt and validate the Multidimensional Work Motivation Scale (MWMS) in the educational context. The scale was answered by 419 teachers from 30 schools from the North and Center of Portugal. Factor analysis indicated that the 19-item scale has the same factor structure as that obtained in the original study. In this study, it was possible to identify that the items that constitute the MWMS are good indicators of constructs to be measured in an educational context and the factors are properly individualized. The scale showed five robust dimensions that permit a broad understanding of motivation, similar to the studies of the original scale. The dimension with the best internal consistency is demotivation, while introjected regulation obtained the lowest coefficient.

Os líderes influenciam o comportamento individual e organizacional, incluindo a dimensão ética, sendo igualmente influenciados pela suas expetativas, interpretações e interações com os outros (Glynn & Jamerson, 2006; Kellerman, 2004).Frequentemente intervêm em diferentes contextos éticos, o que torna difícil para as pessoas "boas" tomarem boas decisões em situações más" (Glynn & Jamerson, 2006, p. 154).A liderança ética pode ser considerada como a "demonstração de conduta normativamente adequada através de ações pessoais e das relações interpessoais, assim como a promoção de tal conduta para os liderados através de uma comunicação bidireccional, reforço e tomada de decisão" (Brown, Trevino & Harrison, 2005, 9.120).O estudo aqui apresentado teve como objetivo desenvolver uma escala de liderança ética (Hanges & Dickson, 2004) para líderes portugueses com base na adaptação e validação da escala realizada por De Hoog e Den Hartog (2008).Os resultados obtidos evidenciam qualidades psicométicas adequadas, com um valor elevado de consistência interna. As análises fatoriais exploratórias revelam uma estrutura que aponta para a existência de dois fatores para a escala definidos como Liderança Ètica e Liderança Despótica que integram as respetivas dimensões.Importa, futuramente realizar uma análise da estabilidade das escalas com outra amostra por forma a verificar-se a consistência do s valores obtidos.
