Exploring efforts to integrate women into combat forces in the
military, we investigate how resistance to equity becomes
entrenched, ultimately excluding women from being full participants
in the workplace. Based on focus groups and surveys with members of
Special Operations, we found most of the resistance is rooted in
traditional gender stereotypes that are often bolstered through
organizational policies and practices. The subtlety of these
practices often renders them invisible. We refer to this
invisibility as organizational obliviousness. Obliviousness exists
at the individual level, it becomes reinforced at the cultural
level, and, in turn, cultural practices are entrenched
institutionally by policies. Organizational obliviousness may not
be malicious or done to actively exclude or harm, but the end
result is that it does both. Throughout this Element we trace the
ways that organizational obliviousness shapes individuals, culture,
and institutional practices throughout the organization.
