Abstract

The present study discusses the challenge for implementing a meritocratic system of accountability and performance evaluation in Secretaria de Estado de Educação de Minas Gerais (SEE/MG - State Department of Education of Minas Gerais) from the Individual Performance Assessment (ADI) and Special Performance Assessment (AED) processes. In 2014, the SEE/MG changed the evaluation process methodology for the administrative staff performance by adopting the assessment throughout competences in the perspective of performance management. The complexity of the implementation phase intrinsic to public policies, in addition to meet with numerous obstacles in previous years (2004-2013), and the necessary adjustments to its effectuation in SEE/MG incentivated this study. We seek to identify the verified resistance during the implementation of the evaluation processes for the performance in SEE / MG as the general goal, in order to propose measures that support the evaluation effectiveness of the active administrative staff performances in the central and regional units of SEE/MG. It deals with descriptive research concerning to a qualitative approach. In this conducted case study, managers responsible for implementing the evaluation for competency in the State Departments of Planning and Management (SEPLAG/MG), Agriculture, Livestock and Supplies (SEAPA/MG), Finance (SEF/MG) were interviewed by means of questionnaires, sought to investigate the perception of workers involved in the implementation process in SEE/MG. The research demonstrated that the consolidation of performance evaluation policy at the state public service surpass the development of evaluative techniques or legal procedures. In order to reduce former and new resistances, evidenced primarily by the misunderstanding of the methodology, lack of credibility in the process and disengagement of the evaluators, an online course was offered to managers and to the ones responsible for the process implementation in SEE/MG, and also a broad study on the evaluation of competences with the development of an instrument to assess the necessary technical competences for the performance of multiple career positions of SEE/MG.
