Though previous research has examined representation of diverse protagonists in business case studies, most studies have focused on a single aspect of diversity such as gender or race. Little research has addressed intersectional portrayals of protagonists in business case studies, such as Black women in positions of power. Our ongoing research project examines business cases from a variety of commonly used resources. We will share our established criteria for evaluating the intersectionality of business cases and will report on suggestions for improvement in this area. Additionally, we will facilitate a dialogue with attendees regarding librarian-led methods to increase inclusion and representation in instructional sessions.
