As a methodology, a bibliographic and documentary research was carried out on tourist regionalization; public management and tourism; and gender and management, in addition to the application of virtual questionnaires with the researched universe, quail-quantitative results were obtained using Excel for data processing. In summary, it was possible to verify that there is a certain parity between the qualifications of female and male management regarding academic training, regarding professional experience, male managers have more than women at all levels. Finally, female management in most municipalities is more unstable, with smaller teams and fewer actions performed, while in male management, perhaps due to greater stability, results are better presented, and they have larger teams.
