Diversity and Inclusion in Engineering

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: In this short book chapter, we reflect on opportunities and challenges in making engineering projects more responsible by overcoming their diversity-blindness, even beyond sex and gender. We achieve this by providing information on the relatively sparse theoretical background in this matter and on our empirical data and methodology. Based on this, we highlight the opportunities and challenges of leveraging human diversity for technological and business success and discuss whether diverse teams contribute to this. We conclude the paper by discussing our findings in the light of their technological and business impact.
