The study aimed to analyze the challenges experienced by nine women who occupied management positions and worked in confronting Covid-19 in a hospital organization. The method used was the case study. Data were subjected to content analysis and generated four thematic categories: leadership styles; changes in work routine; salient facts of the pandemic; and post-pandemic challenges. Differences in leadership style were described through gender stereotypes. The work routine in the pandemic generated new processes and protocols and the teams needed to be trained. Women felt challenged to prove that they were capable of performing their managerial roles like their male counterparts. The overcoming strategies adopted were patience, persistence and focus on people management. The post-pandemic challenge is the need to pay attention to the physical and emotional health of teams. It was concluded that the need for psychological rehabilitation of professionals is essential, as well as reflection on the strategic actions employed in managing the crisis and its results.
