Setting up your Case Study

How to get diversity policy on the agenda?

 

A case study is a good instrument to get more attention for diversity in your organization.

A well-considered analysis resulting in recommendations is a helpful document for policy discussion and can be a support for the management.

Your Case Study should include:

  • description of the current diversity situation of the organisation
  • argumentation about selected interviewees
  • their suggestions for improvements and change, interventions
  • analysis of all suggestions
  • recommendation for improvement of diversity policy

Once you have gathered the information to develop the Case Study for your organisation, you will need to analyse the information from the desk research and the interviews.
