Laurence Romani (author of Chapter 4) is Professor at the Stockholm School of Economics. A central question in her work has been under- standing how organisations approach and manage cultural diversity. She has developed the research area critical cross-cultural management and is currently focused on diversity efforts. Laurence is inspired by sociological theory and her latest study examines how discrimination of people perceived as belonging to an ethnic minority takes place in organisations, despite those organisation’s best intentions not to discriminate. Laurence collaborates with organisations, asking the question: Why do diversity programmes still lead to a form of discrim- ination? Or, to understand underemployment among highly educated migrants: How do companies create the premises for evaluation of people with a migrant background? Laurence’s work is in the field of critical management studies.
