Goal:The aim of this study is to conduct a systematic literature review to identify opportunities to minimize Covid-19 impacts on businesses.Design / Methodology / Approach: The methodology used corresponds to a literature systematic review, covering bibliometric and content analysis. For this purpose, the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) was employed in the literature search. In total, 98 papers were selected to compose the bibliometric analysis, of which 14 are within the scope of the investigation (content analysis).Results: Bibliometric results present a grouping of keywords, authors' co-citation network, geographic distribution of publications and main journals. In the content analysis, trends for postpandemic economy are pointed out, unveiling guidelines and opportunities to ensure the resilience of business proposals.
Limitations of the investigation:The conclusions present limitations inherent to literature review papers, where filters are used to limit the search. In this work, the research was restricted to articles, published between 2015 and 2020 and written in English.Practical implications: This article proposes perspectives to react in a resilient way in the post-Pandemic period of Covid-19, in order to guarantee the permanence and competitiveness of the companies in the market.Originality / Value: Product-Service Systems and Circular Economy were found to be related to the trends and opportunities identified for the short-future economy.
With the advance of globalization, adopting a holistic perspective, involving the environmental, economic and social spheres is fundamental in the profile of professionals. To ensure employability in this context, it is essential to combine technical skills and Soft Skills (noncognitive skills). In view of this, this work aims to highlight the importance of teaching Professional Ethics in the Engineering course and identify which skills are required in the exercise of this profession. For this purpose, the methodology used corresponds to a systematic review of the literature, covering bibliometric analysis and content analysis, which extends the knowledge about Soft Skills (focusing on Professional Ethics) in the teaching and exercise of Engineering. Finally, the research discusses the results through a framework, classifying the Engineer's skills under environmental, economic, and social scopes. In this way, a holistic and integrative approach is presented, which is fundamental to achieve sustainable development and to ensure the employability of this professional.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
