Exercício de desconstrução dos pressupostos conceituais da competitividade organizacional

Abstract

In this essay, we intend deconstruct some theoretical construct of organizational competitiveness under the light of the binary competition/cooperation, market/society and humanizing/dehumanizing existing in the workplace. To do so, we employ arguments critical organizational authors. We found that this construct presents distortions in its theoretical framework, especially taking into account that the management processes of organizations should have as one of its objectives the socio-economic equity. With that, we understand that overvalue the economic dimension, the speed of processes, minimizing costs, among other factors, the competitiveness ultimately contributes directly to the dehumanizing workplace.
