Advisor(s)
Abstract(s)
Pretende-se com este estudo compreender quais as expectativas vividas pelos principais
intervenientes num processo de sucessão de uma Empresa Familiar (EF).
As EF constituem pilares essenciais para a estabilidade do tecido empresarial de um país,
sendo a forma empresarial predominante na economia dos mercados actuais. É indiscutível a
importância deste tipo de empresas no produto nacional bruto e no emprego das pessoas de cada
país.
Este estudo foi levado a cabo numa Grande Empresa Familiar que encontra a sua
actividade distribuída pela Industria, Serviços, Comércio, Agricultura, Imobiliário, Hotelaria e
Distribuição, sendo o seu principal negócio a torrefacção e venda de café.
Tendo este estudo sido desenvolvido em duas fases, uma qualitativa e uma quantitativa,
foram encontrados dois resultados. Os da fase qualitativa vão ao encontro da literatura
considerada, enquanto que os da fase quantitativa levam-nos a concluir que não existem
diferenças significativas das expectativas dos colaboradores face à liderança da organização,
quer no presente com o actual responsável máximo, quer no futuro quando for o sucessor o
seu responsável máximo. Apenas na variável idade, para as expectativas de liderança no
presente e na variável antiguidade, para as expectativas de envolvimento no presente, se
encontram diferenças.
Na conclusão serão discutidas as principais conclusões e implicações do estudo.
