Liderança feminina e o impacto de mulheres no ambiente corporativo: os casos das líderes em organizações na cidade de Capanema, Pará

Abstract

The work addressed factors aimed at female leadership and the impact that women cause within the corporate environment. For this, the general objective chosen analyzed the importance that they provide to their respective sectors of activity, challenges and difficulties when assuming a superior position and how they impact within organizations. Bibliographic research was used as an initial basis to relate the visions of renowned authors with the reality observed during the development of the work. In addition, the other type of Research used in the data collection part was Qualitative and it was carried out through the application of a semi-structured interview containing twenty-one (21) questions. This interview was applied to six (6) female leaders working in different segments within the Municipality of Campania, Pará. After analyzing all the responses, it was noticed that most of them have already faced some type of difficulty exercising leadership. They all have multiple shifts, but manage to deal with it in a positive way without interfering with their work. Another very positive point was the issue of underestimation of tasks, they claimed that they currently do not realize this assuming the aforementioned position and managed to obtain the respect and admiration of their clients/employees, since they always demonstrate efficiency and responsibility. Another factor analyzed is that there is significant family support and they are both democratic and strict leaders – a mixed bag. Finally, it was observed that most leaders seek constant professional improvement in order to always seek to lead environments in the best possible way.
