Dear Friends
As you are aware, this
year’s Esha research project is trying to answer a very important question: How
are inclusive workspaces different, in terms of employee experience?
The study is being
guided by Dr. Amit Jain, FP from IIM Calcutta and faculty at SP Jain Institute
of Management.
We will not be using a
questionnaire-based approach. Instead, we will use two deep-knowledge
techniques – Network Maps and Critical Incidents.
Network Maps help us
understand the real social integration of people, and critical incidents
technique helps us understand the dynamics of working together. This two
pronged approach helps us get a holistic understanding of the inclusive
workspace.
At this time, we are
looking for researchers who will help us gather the information required for
the research. Training will be given to all researchers.
What is expected
Researchers will be
trained on creating network maps and conducting critical incident
conversations.
They are expected to
travel to the workplaces and gather information from both sighted and blind
professionals, both in groups and individually.
This information then
needs to be recorded as per the project standards and submitted.
When
Data gathering will be
done from April to July.
Where
Delhi-NCR, Bengaluru,
Ahmedabad, Chandigarh.
How much time is
expected
About ten hours per
week.
Who can Volunteer
Students above the age
of sixteen can volunteer. All adults can volunteer.
People with interest
in, and some knowledge of behavioural sciences, will find this easier. We are
open to everyone who displays empathy, wants to learn these techniques, and can
devote time. Quality of data and documentation is crucial, so an eye for detail
will be very helpful.
What do the
researchers get?
In addition to a
wonderful experience, all researchers can choose either a certificate of
volunteering or a small honorarium, depending on their preference.
How do we sign up?
