After a year researching at Harvard, Grau published “How context matters: The relationship between family supportive supervisor behaviours and motivation to work moderated by gender inequality”.

The article tackles how support to achieve a balance between work and the family has a positive impact on worker’s motivation, and this is moderated by the level of gender inequality in each country. The study is based on 2.046 participants from four countries.  Brazil, Kenya, the Netherlands and the Philippines.
