Ethnicity and organisational politics: Making sense of the game and learning its rules

Black Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) employees are underrepresented in senior roles. One possible reason for this is that the informal or political side of organisations might be difficult to navigate for these individuals because they are ‘left out of the loop’ when it comes to learning about workplace politics. In this research, I examined how BAME employees learn about and make sense of workplace politics.
