Características observáveis, CFO, Gerenciamento de resultadosResumo
Apesar de a Teoria do Alto Escalão sustentar que os gestores da alta administração se pautam em suas características pessoais para interpretar as situações, formar opiniões e tomar as suas decisões, as pesquisas no Brasil investigam, predominantemente, como os aspectos contratuais, econômicos e institucionais afetam as escolhas organizacionais. Assim, este estudo teve o objetivo de preencher esta lacuna e verificar se as características dos Chief Financial Officer (CFO) estão associadas com a adoção de práticas de gerenciamento de resultados nas entidades. Para tanto, realizou-se uma pesquisa quantitativa, efetuada por meio do levantamento das informações referentes às companhias abertas brasileiras. Identificou-se que a idade e o nível educacional dos CFO apresentam associação negativa com as práticas de gerenciamento de resultados. Os achados sugerem que, assim como as características contratuais, econômicas e institucionais afetam o gerenciamento de resultados das entidades, as características observáveis dos CFO também são determinantes nesse processo.
