description | In recent years, innovation has become a vital and strategic activity for the performance of organizations. Face to this, the Small and Medium Enterprises (Pymes) have been forced to immerse themselves in innovative initiatives that allow them to encourage their business growth to remain in time. Few studies link organizations forms of innovation with manager’s gender, and those studies that exist, show that men do more innovation activities in companies than women. Following the precedent, this research aims to identify the effect of manager’s gender in the innovations in Pymes of the manufacturing and high technology sector of Cali. Results show that there is no difference between men and women when doing innovation in organizations. |

Face to this, the Small and Medium Enterprises (Pymes) have been forced to immerse themselves in innovative initiatives that allow them to encourage their business growth to remain in time. Few studies link organizations forms of innovation with manager’s gender, and those studies that exist, show that men do more innovation activities in companies than women. Following the precedent, this research aims to identify the effect of manager’s gender in the innovations in Pymes of the manufacturing and high technology sector of Cali. Results show that there is no difference between men and women when doing innovation in organizations. La innovación en los últimos años se ha convertido en una actividad fundamental y estratégica para el desempeño de las organizaciones. Frente a esto, las Pequeñas y Medianas Empresas, PYMES, se han visto obligadas a sumergirse en iniciativas innovadoras que les permitan fomentar su crecimiento empresarial para permanecer en el tiempo. Existen pocos estudios que relacionan las formas de innovación de las organizaciones con el género del gerente, y aquellos estudios que existen indican que los hombres realizan más actividades de innovación que las mujeres. Teniendo en cuenta lo anterior, el objetivo de esta investigación es identificar el efecto del género del gerente en las innovaciones de las Pymes del sector de manufactura y alta tecnología de Cali. Los resultados muestran que no existe diferencia entre hombres y mujeres a la hora de realizar innovación en las organizaciones.
