Objetivo - A pesquisa objetivou analisar a relação entre a diversidade do perfil dos gestores, como uma alavanca para a criação de valor, e o conservadorismo contábil de empresas brasileiras e francesas.
Desenho/metodologia/abordagem - A amostra constituiu-se de 71 empresas brasileiras e 67 empresas francesas, listadas no Índice IBrX-100 da B3 e Índice SBF 120 da Euronext Paris, respectivamente. Para a análise dos dados (2011 a 2015) utilizou-se a Regressão Múltipla.
Resultados - Os resultados revelaram que as características da diversidade do perfil dos gestores brasileiros que se relacionam com o conservadorismo contábil são: idade, local da formação e cargo ocupado no corpo diretivo. Na França, as características são: grau de escolaridade, vínculo com a empresa e função exercida.
Limitações/implicações da pesquisa – Destaca-se a limitação da impossibilidade da generalização dos resultados. Como contribuições teóricas esta pesquisa analisa um elemento que pode ser considerado para as análises diante da temática do conservadorismo contábil: o perfil dos gestores.
Implicações práticas - A diversidade do perfil dos gestores deve ser considerada nas empresas, visto que apresenta reflexos no conservadorismo contábil, isto é, na maneira como os gestores conduzem a contabilidade no intuito de maximizar o valor da empresa.
Implicações sociais – Os achados apresentam implicações sociais para os profissionais que almejam inserir-se no mercado de trabalho brasileiro e francês.
Originalidade/valor – O estudo avança na área contábil, pois analisa o corpo diretivo das organizações, um diferencial importante frente à análise das características demográficas, profissionais e de atuação dos gestores e sua relação com o conservadorismo contábil.
