BIO
I am an Industrial-Organisational Psychology academic. I study the role of workplaces--or organised groups of individuals within a system--in cultivating human and societal wellbeing. In my research, wellbeing involves the psychological, social, and cultural aspects of how people function, thrive, and adapt to change together.
I am currently interested/conducting active research in:
- Work design and social capital that support innovation in workplaces
- Adult learning, development, and capacity building
- The contribution of workplaces to environmental sustainability
I am open to exploring collaborative opportunities with other researchers and organisations that involve:
- Mixed or multi methods research
- Participatory design research or consulting projects
- Community knowledge sharing and science outreach related to my research or Industrial-Organisational Psychology
I coordinate three postgraduate courses in the Industrial-Organisational Psychology Master of Science programme (Recruitment & Selection; Training, Learning, & Development; Thesis), and teach into undergraduate research methods courses within the School.
