“…When accomplishing an analysis based on case studies carried out in the public sector, Silva, Mello & Torres (2013) pointed out a few individual and institutional obstacles that can compromise the implementation of competency management. According to the authors, psychological factors, such as perceptions, reactions, values and beliefs of managers and collaborators interfere negatively with implementation; in the organizational sphere, culture and organizational environment present a negative interference, in addition to external factors related to the economic scenario.…”

PurposeThe strategic human resource management (SHRM) emerged in the middle of the 1980s and is currently seen as a relevant research and practical field in the area of business administration (Kaufman, 2015). Its academic relevance has been receiving international attention due to the importance of the strategic performance of human resource management (HRM) (Jackson, Schuler, & Jiang, 2014). It is possible to define SHRM as a vertical connection between HRM practices and international strategy and horizontally as the congruence among the several human resource practices (Wright & McMahan, 1992).Design/methodology/approachTaking into consideration the emerging research gaps in the area, the necessity to bring to attention the implementation of policies and strategic practices of human resource management became prominent. Our study characterizes the national scenario regarding this specific research theme. For such, we developed a bibliometric review of national journals in the area of business administration with level Qualis B2 [1] or above, described the institutionalization of the research in Brazil and established a sociogram with research relationship networks in the country.FindingsBetween 1997 and 2017, only 19 articles on the implementation of SHRM were published in the 32 journals researched. The characterization of the studies indicates a predominance of qualitative articles, which adopt as methodological approach the case study, and most of them use interviews and content analysis as techniques of data collection and analysis, respectively. The use of such investigation tools is in line with the nature of the phenomenon studied. The scenario indicates that the implementation of SHRM is still a developing theme in Brazil.Research limitations/implicationsThere is a lack of studies that combine the use of qualitative and quantitative approaches and focus on public organizations. Besides, the results indicate the need to diversify the methodological approaches used. Regarding the institutionalization of research in Brazil, it is possible to notice the growth of research groups investigating SHRM, even though their only focus does not rely on implementation. The academic production regarding the theme is regionally located in the state of São Paulo, even though academic production is also to be found in a decentralized way in the country, with rare networks.Practical implicationsThis way, the main contribution of this article is the accomplishment of the first bibliometric review regarding the implementation of SHRM in Brazil, showing the scientific community that the theme still presents a gap to be explored in national studies and showing human resource professionals and the society that the transformational switch of human management to organizational outcomes – despite prolific in the academia – still has not been realized in practice.Social implicationsIn the articles analyzed, the most common finding was that the effective implementation of SHRM and strategic practices of HR, such as the competency management, still deserves attention of the academia through the accomplishment of deeper qualitative studies that exhibit not only interfering factors but also the initiatives that must be adopted by the organization to favor the implementation process.Originality/valueThe interventions occurred in an organization can or cannot stem from an articulated HR strategy. Some policies can be implemented without a previous explicit planning, and other planned strategies may never even be effectively implemented (Truss & Gratton, 1994). As reported by Kaufman (2015), some critical success factors to a large-scale organizational change – which is necessary for the effective adoption of strategic HR models – are the commitment of leaderships and a carefully planned and managed implementation. For such, it is necessary to manage programmed organizational changes properly and to act promptly on the cultural pressure perceived by all levels of the organization (Guest, 1987). Such premises are associated with the SHRM perspective proposed by Wright and Snell (1998), in which the authors claim that the main role of HR is to implement organizational strategies. Lengnick-Hall et al. (2009) present a research agenda that highlights the need to give more emphasis on issues related to the implementation of strategic human resource management, specifically regarding the vertical and horizontal alignment of HR systems.

“…The author has exposed the incipiency of CBM studies and pointed out the great diversity of concepts, notions and dimensions, which increases the complexity of its applicability, suggesting a deeper analysis of the variables and results in other journals. Silva, Mello and Torres (2013) conducted a systematic review of articles about competency-based management in the public sector and identified the existence of some practices regarding the applicability of competence notion, mainly concerning the investment in capacitation and development. They have highlighted that the path is still long for the CBM adoption, especially in the public sphere, since cultural barriers may clutter the inclusion of new actions and practices.…”

“…Investigating the field of competency-based management is necessary to advance in researches and improve its applicability, regarding several aspects related to service provision, mainly those concerning adaptation and use of human resources inserted into fast changing contexts (Silva, Cavalcante, Macedo, Silva, & Silva, 2017). Furthermore, research suggestions about professional competence in Brazilian Public Administration were identified (Araújo Júnior & Martins, 2014;Ceribeli, Maciel, & Guilarducci, 2017;Landfeldt & Odelius, 2017;Mello, Fonseca, & Santos, 2015;Meneses & Fonceca, 2016;Montezano, Medeiros, Pinheiro, & Oliveira, 2019;Montezano, Silva, & Coelho Júnior, 2015;Silva, 2017;Silva, Mello, & Torres, 2013;Ubeda & Ferreira, 2016).…”

“…Although there are other bibliometric studies about competency-based management, both general (Mello, Fonseca, & Santos, 2015;Silva et al, 2017) and specific to the public sphere (Araújo Júnior & Martins, 2014;Silva, Mello, & Torres, 2013;Ubeda & Ferreira, 2016), this research is necessary since it presents more analytical variables regarding methodological aspects, main references identified and the consolidation of the results from such publications. Besides, it presents a more comprehensive focus on conferences and journal papers, as well as updates of scientific research review in this specific theme for the Brazilian Public Administration context.…”

Objective: to analyze the panorama of Brazilian scientific research on Competency-based Management (CBM) in Public Administration for the last decade, covering the period from 2008 to April 2018, from the characteristics of the publications, methodological aspects, the stages investigated and the main benefits and difficulties identified in the studies. Method: through an integrative review of Brazilian scientific literature, 26 predefined variables were identified and analyzed, based in 82 articles published in conferences and journals, using descriptive statistics and thematic categorical content analysis. Originality/relevance: the results from last decade papers were consolidated, differentiating by the scope of publications, quantitative of analyzed variables and inclusion of qualitative data. Results: University of Brasilia is the institution with the largest number of authors in the period analyzed. Most studies were empirical, cross-sectional, descriptive, qualitative, with interviews and content analysis, in federal and executive organizations. Fragilities were observed in the methodological records and keyword indexing. Competence diagnosis was the main stage studied. Benefits refer to organizational and individual improvements. The main difficulties concern methodological and conceptual aspects, and the absence of organizational support, which is fundamental to competency-based management adoption and implantation, in order to obtain advantages oriented to the good governance of human resource management. Contributions: a research agenda is suggested to contribute to the quality and methodological rigor of future investigations. Furthermore, the results contribute to public organizations regarding the development and implementation of competency-based management with quality and permanence of the model, enabling the improvement of service delivery to society and to the public servants.

“…Além disso, é importante considerar as particularidades da área pública ao enfocar as repercussões que as mudanças de governo e as questões políticas e de poder implicam para as instituições. 24 Também, o fato de as pessoas estarem mais inclinadas a esperar por soluções prontas ou fórmulas mágicas. 25 Mediante o exercício crítico-reflexivo realizado durante os encontros sobre o contexto vivido na instituição, os participantes perceberam o quanto é imprescindível concentrar esforços no sentido de promover ocasiões que possibilitem a discussão a respeito do processo avaliativo.…”

O objetivo deste estudo foi identificar os aspectos que dinamizam e/ou obstaculizam o processo de avaliação de desempenho de uma instituição hospitalar pública e discutir com os profissionais de saúde estratégias facilitadoras desse processo. Trata-se de pesquisa qualitativa, exploratório-descritiva realizada em um hospital público da região Sul do Brasil. A coleta de dados ocorreu por meio da realização de grupo focal e as informações foram submetidas à análise temática. Como resultados do estudo emergiram as categorias: na dialogicidade do grupo focal, ponderações sobre a finalidade do processo avaliativo; cultura sobre avaliação de desempenho como dinamizadora/obstaculizadora do processo de avaliação; e estratégias facilitadoras do processo de avaliação de desempenho. Os resultados reforçam a necessidade de conduzir a avaliação de desempenho alicerçada em um processo dialógico, reflexivo e que busque uma leitura crítica da realidade em que os profissionais estão inseridos.
