Kvinnliga ledare i mansdominerade kontexter / Female leaders in male dominated contexts

Hedvall, Frida, Furskog, Hanna January 2023 (has links)
Utifrån en kvalitativ metod med semistrukturerade intervjuer, har studien undersökt kvinnliga ledares upplevelser av sitt ledarskap i mansdominerade miljöer. Syftet med studien har varit att få en djupare förståelse för hur kvinnliga ledare ser på sitt ledarskap i en mansdomineradkontext och hur det påverkar deras roll som ledare. Urvalet består av åtta kvinnliga ledare som arbetar inom tre olika mansdominerade branscher. Deras intervjusvar har analyserats utifrån den teoretiska referensramen som består av rollkongruensteorin och fyra ledarstilar. Trots att inga av de kvinnliga ledarna anser att den manliga kontexten påverkar deras ledarskap, visar deras svar att en påverkan ändå finns. Kvinnliga ledare upplever en inkongruens då kvinnans könsroll inte anses stämma överens med den manliga rollen som ledare. Inkongruensen är större i den mansdominerade miljön vilket resulterar i att kvinnorna upplever sig använda en transformativ och demokratisk ledarstil för att balansera inkongruensen. / Based on a qualitative research method, drawing on semi-structured interviews, this study investigates female leaders' experiences of their leadership in male dominated environments. The aim of the study is to develop the understanding of how female leaders view their leadership in a male dominated context and how it affects their own role as leaders. The interviewees are eight female leaders who work in three different male-dominated industries. Their responses are analyzed according to a theoretical framework consisting of the role congruity theory and four leadership styles. Although none of the female leaders believed that the male context affected their leadership, their answers show that there is still an influence. Female leaders experience an incongruence where the women's gender role is not in line with the typically male role as leader. The incongruence is greater in the male dominated environment which results in the women experiencing that they need to use a transformative and democratic leadership style to balance the incongruence.
