Ética na administração pública : o papel do gestor nas interações sociais

Abstract

This work is based on the spectrum of ethics in Public Administration, focused mostly on the social interactions that managers in leadership positions need to deal with every day in a public organization, in order to be successful in their daily functions. Under this view, the research is based on a qualitative analysis, through books, bibliography, and a questionnaire, whose general objective is to understand how each manager acts in diverse situations in his organizational environment, through problem situations and questions concerning ethical behavior, as well as the administrative principles, which guide each and every individual who works in the public sector. Furthermore, the study seeks to analyze aspects related to the Codes of Ethics and Conduct, such as their importance, application, and methods to create a favorable organizational climate for everyone. Thus, the study concludes that the managers' perception of what happens in the Public Administration needs to be directly linked to their actions and, above all, with regard to their ethical behavior.
