Os resultados obtidos atrave?s da aplicac?a?o de metodologia quantitativa a dados recolhidos via inque?rito, apontam para a existe?ncia de evide?ncias estati?sticas de homogeneidade ao ni?vel das percepc?o?es do poder detido pelo dirigente ma?ximo de cada organizac?a?o em func?a?o da idade e antiguidade dos trabalhadores, tendo-se obtido um valor me?dio elevado para as percepc?o?es me?dias globais (cerca de 7 pontos em 10 possi?veis).

Abstract
Studies of organizational dynamics in light of the concept of power abound in the academy, although there is a gap between its theoretical body and quantitative research. This article of scientific and technological research uses a measurement index based on the concept of organizational power distribution of Sauder and Espeland (2009) with the objective of measuring the average perceptions of Portuguese workers relative to the power held by the maximum leader of each organization, depending on the workers’ age and time of service. The results obtained by applying quantitative methodology to the data collected on a survey, point to the existence of statistical evidence of homogeneity at the level of the perceptions of the power held by the maximum leader of each organization as a function of the age and seniority of workers, with a high average value for global perceptions (about 7 points in 10 possible).
Keywords: Organization, Leaders, Power, Portuguese workers, Perception.
Resumen
Los estudios de las dina?micas organizacionales a la luz del concepto de poder abundan en la academia, aunque existe una brecha entre su cuerpo teo?rico y la investigacio?n cuantitativa. Este arti?culo de investigacio?n cienti?fica y tecnolo?gica utiliza un i?ndice de medicio?n basado en el concepto de distribucio?n organizativa de poder de Sauder y Espeland (2009) con el objetivo de medir las percepciones promedio de los trabajadores portugueses en relacio?n con el poder del ma?ximo dirigente de cada organizacio?n, dependiendo de la edad de los trabajadores y el tiempo de servicio. Los resultados obtenidos al aplicar la metodologi?a cuantitativa a los datos recopilados en una encuesta, apuntan a la existencia de evidencia estadi?stica de homogeneidad a nivel de las percepciones del poder que tiene el ma?ximo dirigente de cada organizacio?n en funcio?n de la edad y la antigu?edad de la encuesta, con un valor-medio alto para las percepciones globales (alrededor de 7 puntos en 10 posibles).
Palabras clave: Organizacio?n, Li?deres, Poder, Trabajadores portugueses, Percepcio?n.
