I am a multi-disciplinary researcher specialising in resilience and responsible crisis management. Through my research I try to understand the factors that enable employees and organisations to cope responsibly with:

• complex employee health and safety issues (e.g., serious health conditions),
• high-risk work settings (e.g., the military and policing),
• extreme events (e.g., pandemic disease),
• and grand challenges (e.g., climate crisis).

My recent projects have examined employer responsibilities towards employees who return to work after a cancer diagnosis, CEO activism on issues such as gender inequality, and the ways in which COVID-19 is reshaping the role of business in society.

My specialism is qualitative research methods, but my strong preference is to work in multi-disciplinary research teams. 

I have published my research in journals such as Academy of Management Discoveries, Academy of Management Perspectives, British Journal of Management, Gender, Work & Organization, The International Journal of Human Resource Management, Journal of Business Ethics, and Work, Employment & Society.

I serve as an Associate Editor for Group & Organization Management. 

I have over ten years of international teaching experience and have worked with students at all levels of University study. I primarily teach in the areas of strategy, organisation, management, and research methods. I am a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (UK), a Certified Management and Business Educator, and hold a PGCert in Academic Practice. 

I am happy to supervise PhD students, and keen to receive enquiries from students interested in pursuing doctoral research in areas of my expertise.
