The business framework prioritizes the flexibility and cooperation, and these assumptions are critical for today's leaders you need to redefine their attitudes and positions for that teamwork is enhanced and so the leader is also. The subject of the present study is the conflict between generations and leadership profiles. For both this translates to the following problem: as the existing leadership profiles in a private institution of higher learning of Araguari, Minas Gerais relate to their respective subordinates? The study began with a survey of theoretical references on the definitions, characteristics of the types of leadership and on the generations and its features. And then, the responses of the participants were collected by means of questionnaires. From the data on the years of birth, respondents were divided into generations, baby boomers (group three); X (group two); Y and Z (group a) and then analyzed the characteristics of each generation and the existing leadership profiles. We were able to illustrate how the leadership profiles of a higher education institution of Araguari-Minas Gerais relate to subordinates, IE, grouped the leaders in generations (baby boomers, X, Y, Z), of these which the generation Z is the one that has fewer. From then on, the profiles of the leaders, which have characteristics of participatory and democratic management styles and identified the types of conflicts that exist, listed the key features of the leaders, set if the existing conflict influenced the management of Organization. In addition, it was possible to compare the theory and practice of managers and/or coordinators with respect to their subordinates. The main idea was to verify the differences of characteristics between a leader and a baby boomer leader and also of intermediaries and compared their relationship with their subordinates.
