Análise dos traços culturais brasileiros: um estudo em uma organização nacional do ramo de confecção e vestuário

Abstract

The present study analyzed the manifestations of the cultural traits "Jeitinho" and "Sociedade Relacional" in an organization of the garment and clothing branch located in the state of Minas Gerais. For this, an exploratory-descriptive study was carried out, using a quantitative approach, using the instrument developed and validated by Fernandes (2006), whose elaboration was based on the theoretical essays of Freyre (2004), Holanda (1995), Ribeiro (2006) and Da Mata (1978, 1984). A non-probabilistic sample of 127 questionnaires collected in the period from October 26 to October 30, 1616 was used. The results showed that both traits manifest themselves in the same way for men and women, for employees of different age groups, for employees of different levels of education, for employees whose function involves or not coordination of people, and for those who have higher or shorter company time, which shows the penetration of these traits in various segments of society, thus classifying them as cultural traits of Brazilian culture.
