Juliana Costa de Carvalho, Ph.D.
Business Administration
I am a Ph.D. in Business Administration, specializing in Organizational Behavior and Diversity, from the Brazilian School of Public and Private Administration, Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV/EBAPE), Rio de Janeiro. I also hold an MSc. in Business Administration from FGV/EBAPE, a B.Sc. in Communications from the Rio de Janeiro State University, and a B.Sc. in History from the Rio de Janeiro Federal University.
My primary research area is leadership, with a particular emphasis on addressing racial inequality. This work includes exploring the challenges faced by Black leaders in the job market, developing strategies for their inclusion, and fostering supportive environments in both professional and educational settings. I delve deeply into the impact of colorism, the cultural influences on Black leadership, inclusive practices, and the broader effects of diversity on organizational success.
Additionally, I have a keen interest in the field of education, which often serves as a gateway for Black individuals to access leadership roles. My research in this area examines racial inequality in both basic and higher education and its effects on the careers of Black individuals. I also study the unique challenges faced by Black teachers and principals within the public school system, focusing on how unconscious bias, racial self-esteem, and stereotyping can influence the outcomes for Black students.
As a scholar dedicated to diversity, my goal is to develop research that aids organizations in enhancing inclusion and fostering a sense of belonging among members of stereotyped groups, across both public and private sectors. I lead training initiatives that promote inclusive leadership and advocate for teamwork, anti-racism, and diversity-centric policies, all grounded in data-driven insights. My ambition is to guide leaders across various sectors in embracing diversity and nurturing an environment where everyone feels valued and belongs.
Teaching is a passion of mine. In my classes, I strive to engage students in discussions that spur ideas for creating more equitable organizations.
