Resumo

Objetivo: Analisar a relação entre diversidade de gênero e inovação nas organizações, ao explorar suas barreiras e impulsionadores.

Abordagem metodológica: Foi realizada uma investigação qualitativa exploratória, iniciando com uma revisão bibliográfica e análise temática das publicações relevantes, localizadas na base de dados Web of Science (WoS). A identificação das barreiras e impulsionadores, associada à análise de sua influência e manifestação dentro do contexto organizacional, foi demonstrada através da identificação de tópicos emergentes obtidos por meio da revisão e dos elementos destacados na literatura, os quais foram integrados para formar um mapa temático.

Originalidade/Relevância: Este trabalho contribui ao explorar como a diversidade de gênero se relaciona à inovação. Além disso, destaca-se a importância de estratégias gerenciais e políticas públicas para promover a igualdade de gênero e estimular a criatividade organizacional.

Principais Resultados: Os resultados indicaram que organizações com maior diversidade de gênero tendem a ser mais inovadoras. A identificação das barreiras e impulsionadores contribuiu para nortear a elaboração de um mapa temático que orienta estratégias para favorecer a inovação nas empresas.

Contribuições Teóricas: Este estudo contribuiu para a teoria organizacional ao interpretar a relação entre diversidade de gênero e inovação. Além disso, destacou a necessidade de políticas inclusivas e práticas gerenciais que promovam a igualdade de oportunidades.

Contribuições Gerenciais: As descobertas tiveram implicações práticas para gestores e formuladores de políticas. Recomendou-se a implementação de políticas de igualdade de gênero e a promoção de um ambiente de trabalho inclusivo para maximizar o potencial inovador das organizações.
