A FORÇA DA LIDERANÇA FEMININA NA ADMINISTRAÇÃO:A TRAJETÓRIA PARA SUPERAR DESAFIOS E ALCANÇAR O SUCESSO

Abstract

This paper addresses the trajectory of female leadership in administration, highlighting the challenges women face in attaining prominent positions within organizations. Throughout history, women's presence in positions of power has been limited by social, cultural, and institutional factors, with gender inequality being one of the main obstacles. The main objective of the research is to understand these barriers and emphasize the importance of female leadership in transforming organizations. Despite progress in recent decades, women's representation in leadership roles remains insufficient. The choice of topic is based on the relevance of discussing this reality, which reflects not only a professional issue but also a social and structural one. The study seeks to understand the obstacles faced in the corporate environment, highlight the importance of women's roles, and reflect on ways to strengthen their presence in leadership positions. The research analyzes theoretical contributions on gender, the labor market, and management, based on a qualitative approach supported by bibliographic review. In the face of ongoing barriers and challenges, women's ability to resist, adapt, and lead stands out, gradually transforming organizational structures. Their presence is essential to promoting fairer, more diverse, and innovative environments, directly contributing to a more balanced and inclusive society.
