Resumen
PRADO, Renata Muniz y FLEITH, Denise de Souza. Female Leadership Talent Development: The Brazilian Context. Av. Psicol. Latinoam. [online]. 2018, vol.36, n.2, pp.363-372. ISSN 1794-4724. https://doi.org/10.12804/revistas.urosario.edu.co/apl/a.4619.
Women's participation in leadership positions is increasing all over the world. Nevertheless, an analysis of the top positions of several careers shows that this progress has been insufficient to equitably drive the professional rise of women to the highest levels of responsibility, power and prestige. In Brazil the situation is not different. Various factors contribute to this phenomenon. Social and cultural influences play a particularly important role in the development of female leadership talent, impacting not just the behavioral patterns incorporated and displayed by women, but also the structure of their professional fields. Hence, this study aimed to analyze the development of talent in the light of gender studies, with an emphasis on factors that interfere in the rise of Brazilian women towards positions of power and leadership. This approach is hoped to elicit a reflection on how the unequal conditions experienced by women are perpetuated and often made to seem natural by valuing their "difference".
