Project description
Third-cycle subject: Industrial Economics and Management
We invite applications for a doctoral student position at the Department of Industrial Economics and management in a research project on organisation and change from a gender perspective, with emphasis on gender equality and diversity work. We are looking for a self-reliant, highly motivated individual interested in research, doctoral studies and change management in organisations. Gender equality and diversity are today seen as integrated aspects of organisational management, and many organisations are continuously working towards improving their performance and culture in these respects. In parallel, academic research provides new theoretical perspectives and methodologies as well as insights on the complexities involved in this form of work for change. Change management usually encounters various forms of resistance, and may both contribute to developments towards increased equality and diversity and to reproduce and sustain existing patterns. This research project therefore aims at developing knowledge on these forms of organisational change management processes.
Supervision: The doctoral student will be placed at the Royal Institute och Technology and be supervised by Associate Professor Charlotte Holgersson.
