“…In addition, it involves different factors such as, for example, changing management methods, approaches, behaviors, customs, and especially and more difficult, changing the organizational culture. Therefore, it is necessary that those responsible for the implementation have patience and persistence, and that they know how to deal with the resistance of some employees, otherwise the results may not be achieved or not turn out as expected (Peinado & Graeml, 2014). Therefore, if managers know how to properly promote empowerment, they encourage workers to change behaviors and assume responsibilities, making their intellectual capital develop in the work environment.…”

In the competitive global marketplace, it is becoming important for organizations to empower employees for productivity reasons. One of the organizational empowerment models with greater support and consistency in the various studies in which it has been used is Spreitzer's Model of Psychological Empowerment in the Workplace, published in 1995. The model is composed of four dimensions that allow the measurement of the components of meaning, competence, self-determination and the impact of work on individual empowerment. The present study aims to evaluate the psychometric properties, in the Portuguese context, of the referred model. After the translation and adaptation of the psychological empowerment scale, the questionnaire was applied to a sample of 545 workers from Portuguese industrial organizations. The results of the application of structural equation modeling allow identifying the same components defined by the Spreitzer model, so it can be considered a reliable and valid instrument to measure organizational empowerment in the Portuguese context. However, we consider that complementary studies are necessary to analyze the psychometric properties of the scale and to further advance the research. The results obtained allow us to affirm that empowerment will be a basic strategy to improve the organizational transformations that companies constantly face. It is therefore important for Portuguese organizations to analyze the level of psychological empowerment of their employees, in order to find solutions to problems such as turnover, talent attraction, performance, work demotivation and improve human resource management practices. This is particularly important following the COVID-19 pandemic in which the psychology of employees was tested due to working from home and social distancing requirements.

Inventory management systems are indispensable for most companies since the cost of implementing robust systems, such as the Warehouse Management System (WMS), leads companies to invest a high implementation value depending on the structure that best suits their internal flow. Thus, this article sought to present the implementation of a more viable software for material management in one of the warehouses of an assembler of the two-wheeler hub in Manaus, where no warehouse system controls the flow of materials and their addressing. The Excel program developed the system using the programming language linked to Microsoft Office: Visual Basic for Applications (VBA). This system presented itself as an alternative with a more viable implementation cost than a robust system such as the WMS. In addition, the system’s functioning flow was developed based on the process already done in the stock, facilitating its implementation and acceptance by the operators
