Os resultados da pesquisa mostraram que a aprendizagem empreendedora tem papel de meio, contínuo e experiencial na formação em negócios do gestor de TI, isso porque as experiências prévias em negócios foram sendo aprimoradas no modo contínuo de novas experiências empresariais, nos seus primeiros empreendimentos, trabalhando nestes e, em seguida, nos de terceiros. Os dois modos de transformação de experiências de carreira empreendedora, tanto o exploitation (conhecimentos preexistentes) quanto o exploration (novas possibilidades) influenciam e aprimoram o desenvolvimento dos conhecimentos em negócios do gestor de TI.Palavras-chave: Aprendizagem empreendedora.

Business Security

This chapter provides an overview of digital business security. It is informed by a contemporary analysis of perceived threats through the eyes of information technology managers both from a representative public institution (a University) and from a private company (a retail sales company). A brief overview of malicious software leads into more general consideration of the risks and threats of security breaches, which are analysed from both a company and a customer perspective. Common to both sectors is the requirement to secure corporate records and other digital information and management and policy guidance is provided here. Cybercrime remains rife, but is both under-reported and under-prosecuted. As managers may become involved in legal issues associated with information technology security breaches, this chapter also overviews the special nature of digital evidence.

<p><strong>Emotional intelligence (EI) is related to emotions and emotional information. It has attracted great attention among researchers and Human Resource (HR) practitioners because of its contribution towards leaders and employees and its key role for the organizational effectiveness and excellence. Here, I describe the models of EI and review the findings about the association between EI, leaders and employees to point out the positive correlations. I conclude by signalizing thoughts for future research on the role of EI in organizations.</strong></p>
