Resumo: | Strategies that top managers implement to make them indispensables to the organizations, are known as entrenchment. This concept is little studied in corporate governance. These strategies seem to be a reaction of top managers to the different mechanisms of control, internal or external, and a necessary and compulsory path for those who wish to amplify their discretionary capacity. The entrenchment of top managers isn't a formal statute or official recognizance; it happens in a net of informal relationships that manager's control. It allows top managers to increase their own power near the stakeholders. Therefore, such power tends to be perceived as having an illegal power source. However, entrenchment of top managers isn't necessarily inefficient, it can be of benefit as long as it contributes value creation and to the development of the organization as a whole. Thus, it was tried to trace the path taken by this line of research in the recent past and to contribute to the promotion of empirical studies to strengthen this theme with results emanating from the organizations' practices. |

As estratégias implementadas pelos gestores de topo das organizações para se tornarem indispensáveis são conhecidas por enraizamento. Este conceito é ainda pouco estudado no governo das sociedades. Aquelas estratégias parecem ser uma reacção dos gestores de topo aos diferentes mecanismos de controlo, quer internos quer externos, e será uma passagem necessária e obrigatória para todos aqueles que desejam alargar o seu espaço discricionário. O enraizamento dos gestores de topo não se traduz num estatuto formal, nem constitui um reconhecimento oficial; ele é construído no seio de uma rede de relações informais que aqueles gestores controlam. Permite a estes aumentarem o seu poder junto das partes interessadas. Logo, este poder tende a ser percebido como tendo origem numa fonte de poder ilegítima. Contudo, o enraizamento dos gestores de topo não é necessariamente ineficaz; pode ser benéfico na medida em que contribua para a criação de valor e o desenvolvimento da organização como um todo. Assim, procurou-se traçar o caminho percorrido por esta linha de investigação num passado recente e contribuir para o fomento de estudos empíricos que fortaleçam esta temática com resultados emanados da prática das organizações.
