English to Portuguese: Decision-making Detailed field: Education / Pedagogy
Source text - English Some studies have been conducted on the relationship between decision-making and organizational performance. For instance, Andersen (2004) found that decentralized decision structure and (strategic) planning activities are associated with higher organizational performance in dynamic environments.
Likewise, distributed decision authority, managerial decision-makingm and strategic planning processes are all positively correlated with economic performance (Andersen, 2004).
Also, Scott-Ladd and Marshall (2004) argue that managerial decision-making has great influence on the direction of the organization in all spheres, and if not well taken can be costly to the firm. Empirically, their study revealed that managerial decision-making impact positively on the performance of organizations.
Similarly, Ojokuku and Sajuyigb (2014) emphasize the significance of managerial decision on organizational performance and, propose that increasing employee participation in decision-making will impact positively on their growth and potential for survival.
This suggests that there is a positive relationship between decision-making and organizational performance. That is to say, good decision-making in organizations will result in increased performance and vice versa.
Translation - Portuguese Foram realizados alguns estudos sobre a relação entre
a tomada de decisão e o desempenho organizacional. Por exemplo, Andersen (2004) descobriu que, em ambientes dinâmicos, a estrutura das decisões descentralizadas e o planejamento de atividades (estratégicas) estão associados com o desempenho organizacional superior.
Do mesmo modo, a autoridade de decisão compartilhada, o gerenciamento da tomada de decisões e os processos de planejamento estratégico estão relacionados positivamente com o desempenho econômico (Andersen, 2004).
Igualmente, Scott-Ladd e Marshall (2004) argumentam que o gerenciamento da tomada de decisões tem uma grande influência no rumo da corporação em sua totalidade e seu mau aproveitamento pode custar caro para a empresa. Empiricamente, o estudo dos autores revelou que o gerenciamento da tomada de decisões tem um impacto positivo no desempenho das corporações.
Da mesma forma, Ojokuku e Sajuyigb (2014) enfatizam a importância do gerenciamento de decisões no desempenho organizacional, sugerindo que aumentar a participação dos funcionários na tomada de decisões irá afetar positivamente no seu crescimento e potencial de sobrevivência.
Isso indica que há uma relação positiva entre a tomada de decisão e o desempenho organizacional. Ou seja, nas corporações, a tomada de boas decisões resultará no aumento do desempenho e vice, e versa.

Portuguese to English: Bauman’s Liquid Modernity General field: Other Detailed field: Education / Pedagogy
Source text - Portuguese A modernidade líquida (2001) foi a maior contribuição que Bauman nos deixou. A liquidez da modernidade de Bauman evidencia como as relações humanas são passageiras, superficiais, frias e de caráter individualista.
Caracteriza-se como Modernidade o período pós Revolução Industrial e Francesa. Esses dois eventos se caracterizaram por romper com modelos econômicos, sociais e políticos. Dessa forma, a modernidade se caracteriza pela quebra dos modelos, convenções e crenças tradicionais (HAILER, 2019).
Segundo Bauman, a modernidade é “líquida”, justamente por se destacar em dissolver os sólidos recebidos de sociedades tradicionais. Entretanto, o grau de liquidez varia durante o processo histórico da modernização. Por isso, Zygmunt Bauman divide a modernidade em duas fases: a Modernidade Sólida e a Modernidade Líquida.
Translation - English The liquid modernity (2001) was the most important contribution left by Bauman. The modernity liquidity of Bauman highlights the fact that human relations are temporary, superficial, and cold with an individualistic nature.
The period after the Industrial and French Revolutions is characterized as modernity. These two events are marked by their rupture with social, economic, and political models. That way, modernity is characterized by the rupture of traditional beliefs, models, and conventions (HAILER, 2019).
According to Bauman, modernity is “liquid”, precisely because of its prominence in dissolving the solids received by traditional societies. However, during the historic process of modernization, the level of liquidity varies. For that reason, Zygmunt Bauman separates modernity into two stages: Solid Modernity and Liquid Modernity.
