Resumen

Introducción: El Síndrome de la Abeja Reina, un fenómeno en el que las mujeres que ocupan puestos de liderazgo inhiben el avance de otras mujeres, supone un reto importante en la búsqueda de la igualdad de género en el lugar de trabajo. Objetivo: Este estudio pretende explorar el Síndrome de la Abeja Reina dentro del marco de la teoría de la identidad social en el marco del comportamiento organizacional. Métodos: Se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica exhaustiva utilizando términos clave como "Síndrome de la Abeja Reina", "desigualdad de género", "teoría de la identidad social" y "comportamiento organizacional" en varias bases de datos. Resultados: La revisión identifica que el Síndrome de la Abeja Reina exacerba las disparidades de género y contribuye a un ambiente de trabajo tóxico al reforzar los prejuicios de género y obstaculizar el avance profesional de las mujeres. Las raíces del síndrome se encuentran a menudo en la interiorización de atributos de liderazgo masculinizados y en prejuicios sociales que favorecen la dominación masculina. Conclusiones: Para abordar el Síndrome de la Abeja Reina se requiere un enfoque polifacético, que incluya garantizar una representación equilibrada de hombres y mujeres, promover modelos de conducta positivos e incorporar principios de igualdad en las políticas organizativas para fomentar un entorno más integrador y propicio para las mujeres.
