Resumo

Este artigo examina o conceito de holdership - definido como “sustentação” - como uma alternativa, baseada na psicanálise, às teorias tradicionais de liderança. Utilizando uma metodologia de revisão teórica e análise conceitual, integra as contribuições de Winnicott, Bollas e Lacan para articular como o holdership promove a colaboração, o empoderamento, a autonomia e o crescimento pessoal nas organizações. Discute a integração entre o holdership e a teoria lacaniana do laço social, lançando luz sobre as complexidades da subjetividade humana e das estruturas sociais nas dinâmicas organizacionais contemporâneas. Por exemplo, em equipes híbridas onde os membros estão distribuídos entre ambientes virtuais e presenciais, o holdership ajuda a fomentar a segurança psicológica ao criar um “ambiente de sustentação” que apoia a tomada de riscos e a experimentação, impulsionando a inovação mesmo diante de fronteiras organizacionais difusas. Um modelo teórico é desenvolvido por meio de uma análise crítica das teorias psicanalíticas - Winnicott, Lacan e Bollas - focando em suas potenciais aplicações nas dinâmicas organizacionais. Diferentemente dos modelos tradicionais de liderança, que frequentemente enfatizam o controle hierárquico e a delegação de tarefas, o holdership posiciona de forma única as dinâmicas relacionais e a subjetividade como elementos centrais, permitindo que as organizações cultivem culturas de colaboração e inovação. O artigo também sugere orientações práticas para fomentar o potencial individual e coletivo em arranjos de trabalho flexíveis, em rede e distribuídos. Ele abre novas possibilidades de pesquisa e fornece insights valiosos para organizações que enfrentam os desafios do organizing contemporâneo.
