The present thesis set out to analyze the discourse of organizations in the field of Human Resources and the relationship between the organization and the individual, bearing in mind the modern organizational collective imaginary and relations of power within organizations. Considering that the companies occupy a prominent position in the life of the individual, it is necessary to understand how the individual relates to them, to what extent he has his subjectivity manipulated and how certain organizational discourses help towards the internalizing of organizational culture on the part of the members of the organization In this sense, it is important to understand organizational discourse not only as being a constituting factor of social reality but also as an ideological practice that contributes to the construction of social and individual identities. The body of the research is composed of articles from the magazine Exame published between 1990 and 2002. Through these an attempt is made to verify and analyze organizational discourses in the field of human resources and the impact of these, in all their varying categories, on the individual working within organizations in present day society. The analysis of the articles made it possible to identify certain categories of discourse: the successful super-executive in the organizations, the discourse on organizational commitment, managerial modisms, the discourse on participation in the organization, the discourse on health within the companies and the discourse on the best companies to work for. In addition, organizational discourse related to human resources was analyzed not merely from the angle of what is stated but also from the angle of what goes unstated and which can be analyzed using a critical approach. The result was the identification and the analysis of a set of elements that compose the discourse of organizations and that permeate, intensely, relations of production within organizations; success at any price, success that can only be achieved through hard work, the exclusive presence of the companies in the life of the individual, the sporting worker who is a winner (no room for the weak or for losers), loyalty to, and love for the company, the value of dialogue (not always reflecting the effective participation of the individual in the decision making process). These are some of the topics that make up the discourse of organizations in the field of human resources found in the Exame magazine and which this present work proposes to analyze.
