Resumo: Objective: This theoretical essay aims to identify how agency relationships occur, involving stakeholders in non-profit higher education institutions, as well as the role of Corporate Governance in this context. Theoretical approach: Agency Theory, Stakeholder Theory, and Corporate Governance are discussed from their foundations, history, and evolution to the present day and the specificities of non-profit educational institutions. The theories are concatenated in a perspective of multiple principals and agents involving stakeholders and governance as a modulator of conflicts in relation to the purpose of the organization. Results: A theoretical model is presented as a result, showing the agency relationships, from which risks of conflicts can emerge when the institutional objectives of the organization and the role of governance in mitigating these risks are disregarded. For future research, further in-depth practical investigation is suggested, with an empirical investigation into non-profit organizations. Originality/Relevance: The work is original in that it proposes an integrated approach to theories, also proving to be relevant to the field of third sector studies. Theoretical contributions: This study brings theoretical contributions as it outlines a new perspective of approaching theories and the purpose of organizations. Social Contributions: It also presents social contributions by discussing the topic in the context of non-profit higher education institutions, helping this type of organization to better understand the configuration and risks involving agency relationships.

Abordagem teórica: Discute-se a Teoria da Agência, a Teoria dos Stakeholders e a Governança Corporativa a partir de seus fundamentos, história e evolução até os dias atuais e as especificidades das instituições de educação sem fins lucrativos. As teorias são concatenadas em uma perspectiva de múltiplos principais e agentes envolvendo os stakeholders e a governança como moduladora de conflitos em relação ao propósito da organização. Resultados: Apresenta-se como resultado um modelo teórico evidenciando as relações de agência, das quais podem emergir riscos de conflitos, quando os objetivos institucionais da organização são desconsiderados e o papel da governança na mitigação destes riscos. Para pesquisas futuras sugere-se o aprofundamento prático, com uma investigação empírica em organizações sem fins lucrativos. Originalidade/Relevância: O trabalho tem originalidade por propor uma abordagem integrada das teorias, mostrando-se também relevante para o campo dos estudos do terceiro setor.   Contribuições teóricas: Traz contribuições teóricas na medida que traça uma nova perspectiva de abordagem das teorias e do propósito das organizações. Contribuições sociais: Apresenta também contribuições sociais por discutir o tema no contexto das instituições de educação superior sem fins lucrativos, contribuindo para que este tipo de organização possa compreender melhor a configuração e os riscos envolvendo as relações de agência.Contabilidade Gestão e Governança2023-03-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://revistacgg.org/index.php/contabil/article/view/297210.51341/cgg.v25i3.2972Journal of Accounting, Management and Governance; Vol. 25 No. 3 (2022); 471-487Contabilidade Gestão e Governança; v. 25 n. 3 (2022); 471-4871984-392510.51341/cgg.v25i3reponame:Contabilidade, Gestão e Governançainstname:Universidade de Brasília (UnB)instacron:UNBporenghttps://revistacgg.org/index.php/contabil/article/view/2972/781https://revistacgg.org/index.php/contabil/article/view/2972/782Copyright (c) 2022 Evelter Silva Moreira, Roberta de Cassia Macedoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMoreira, Evelter SilvaMacedo, Roberta de Cassia2023-07-18T14:58:36Zoai:oai.jamg.cloud:article/2972Revistahttp://www.revistacgg.org/index.php/contabilPUBhttps://revistacgg.org/index.php/contabil/oaijamg.cgg@gmail.com1516-70111984-3925opendoar:2023-07-18T14:58:36Contabilidade, Gestão e Governança - Universidade de Brasília (UnB)false
