In my research I explore new avenues towards diversity and inclusion in the construction industry with Kemp & Lauritzen as the case, focusing on fostering connection, belonging and inclusion through intervention based organizational- and management development.
I aim to contribute to the understanding of how to transform organizational cultures and habits towards more inclusive practices and structures. Through a series of interventions, the purpose is to start- and spread the dialogue on how, as an organization, you can learn to break with stereotypes, prejudice and discrimination in everyday practices.
I use mixed methods, where I am developing a new metric including scales that measure belonging, employee voice authenticity, everyday-discrimination, inclusive leadership as well as a diversity-index specifically applicable to a Danish context and adhering to the law against discrimination.
In the project I thus seek to answer; how inclusive behaviours and attitudes can be fostered through organizational interventions? How can organizational interventions be designed to counteract biases and workplace discrimination? As well as; how can the effect of such interventions on workplace diversity and inclusion be measured?
