ABSTRACT This paper aims to analyse the ordering of Technology Transfer Offices’ (TTO) positions regarding innovation indicators using multicriteria analysis as a tool. The purpose is to identify and analyse the TTOs’ strengths and weaknesses in a specific higher education institution in order to understand their performance via ranking, for obtaining revenues from intellectual property assets possibilities developed by them. The use of a methodology for the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), using two normalizing methods, was preceded by a treatment of this qualitative data with the Measuring Attractiveness by a Category Based Evaluation Technique (MACBETH). It is based on an applied questionnaire on TTO’s for recognizing the status of the technology transfer condition to developing nations, focusing on an approach to the institutionalization of TTO’s within a national context. The results of these technical applications bring together novel approaches to the processing of data using both methods to support multicultural decisions (using qualitative and quantitative data). These are initially arranged in different ways and present better analytical conditions in respect to the presented technological development. The first combination between TOPSIS and MACBETHS, with two normalized methods, and associated with a Pearson analysis between the criteria.

ABSTRACT Purpose: To identify the Internal Migration Theory application to the corporate governance subject in an autarchy. Originality/value: The originality of this paper lies in the geographically recognized Internal Migration Theory, which is also recognized within the anthropological-organizational context by an organizational culture in which moral harassment leads to constant movements of new servers in the probationary stage. Design/methodology/approach: The research uses a structured interview to collect empirical data. The review of the literature is restricted to Internal Migration Theory and corporate governance in the microcosm of its application by public institutions, regarding the treatment of moral harassment to servers in the probationary stage. Findings: The results suggest that the Internal Migration Theory can be included in corporate governance regarding the public servant request in the probationary stage movement. The creation of the probation evaluation committee for the incoming public servant has created transparency in bullying and server movement, contributing to corporate governance.
