Kvinnliga chefers upplevelser av sin ledarskapsroll i en mansdominerad bransch / Female managers' experiences of their leadership role in a male-dominated industry

Olsson, Ida, Hammarstrand, Ingrid January 2020 (has links)
Syftet med föreliggande studie var att undersöka hur kvinnliga chefer inom en mansdominerad bransch upplever sin ledarskapsroll. Genom en kvalitativ studie genomfördes sex intervjuer med kvinnor i en ledarskapsroll inom mansdominerade branscher. Dataanalysen genomfördes utifrån en induktiv tematisk analys och utifrån det transkriberade materialet framkom fyra huvudteman; ledarskapsrollen, hinder som kvinna och chef, branschkultur och stereotypa attityder. Resultatet visade att flertalet kvinnor upplevde att deras ledarskap är av mjuk karaktär vilket de menade var en väsentlig skillnad i jämförelse med deras manliga kollegors ledarskapsstil i samma position. Utifrån respondenternas upplevelser framkom även att kvinnorna upplevde hinder och utmaningar som inte män i samma position står inför i en mansdominerad bransch. Dessa hinder var bland annat en tuff jargong och kultur samt låga förväntningar och höga prestationskrav som grundar sig i stereotypa föreställningar. / The aim of the present study was to examine how female managers perceive their role as a leader in a male-dominated industry. To investigate this, a qualitative method was applied, using semistructured interviews with sex female leaders within a male-dominated branch. The data collection was analysed using inductive thematic analysis where four themes was identified: the leadership role, obstacles for female managers, branch culture and gender stereotyped attitudes. The result revealed that most of the women experienced that their leadership style was characterized by a soft nature, which they believed was a significant difference compared to their male colleagues’ leadership style in the same position. Based on the respondents experiences it was found that women experienced obstacles that not men in the same position face in a male-dominated industry. These obstacles were a tough jargon and culture as well as low expectations and high-performance requirements based on stereotypical conceptions.
