O PAPEL DO ADMINISTRADOR DIANTE DA INCLUSÃO DE PESSOAS LGBTQIAPN+ NO AMBIENTE ORGANIZACIONAL, COM ÊNFASE NA IDENTIDADE DE GÊNERO

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the posture of administrators regarding the inclusion of LGBTQIAPN+ individuals in organizational environments, with an emphasis on gender identity diversity. The research is grounded in the recognition that, despite legal and social advancements, this population still faces exclusion, prejudice, and discrimination in professional settings, often being overlooked during recruitment processes before their skills can be assessed. The study adopts a qualitative bibliographic approach, based on authors who discuss diversity, inclusion, and organizational management. Valuing diversity is understood not only as an ethical commitment but also as a strategic practice, as inclusive environments contribute to conflict reduction, increased productivity, and talent retention. In this context, administrators are highlighted as key agents of transformation and promoters of inclusive practices that ensure equity and respect. It is concluded that organizations must implement effective and continuous policies addressing sexual and gender diversity, and that administrators must be properly trained to manage identity plurality in the workplace, thus fostering more humane, fair, and productive organizational cultures.
