| Summary: | In this article we present three factors that determine in great part the equality of opportunities in universities with respect to the gender: the organizational culture in the university, the participation in the university management and the exercise of leadership. Quantitative and qualitative studies have been carried out in order to obtain professors’ perception of the institutional culture regarding gender, leadership and participation in decision making. The results show that there’s a persistant perception about stereotyped models of the leadership style of the departmental leaders identified with the social construction of the masculine, that there are forms of participation in the meetings of the governing bodies differentiated by the gender of the professors who participate and by the professor who lead, that certain features are found in the motivations and ways of exercising management positions in the university according to gender and that the leadership of the research is mostly in the hands of the male gender. |
