About me
As an Associate Lecturer I am passionate about creating positive experiences for our students whilst cherishing a valued relationship with learning. As a Fellow of HEA in my teaching practice I follow the principles of engaged pedagogy and one-to-one interaction.
As a Researcher, I am currently working on an Inclusive Leadership and translation studies research, whilst utilising visual methods. In the past I have been privileged to work for a prestigious ESRC-funded project and lead qualitative case studies based on over 250 interviews on wellbeing and productivity at work. I have also been involved in several other ad-hoc projects on wellbeing and work-life balance at work.
Before joining the Business School, I held HR advisory positions in several private and public sector organisations between 2010 and 2019. I focused on the mitigation of organisational risks in employment relations matters, designing and integrating of policies and processes affecting organisational outcomes such as improved wellbeing and performance.
I hold a fellowship of HEA and I am a Chartered member of CIPD.
My Phd research (July 2019) explored how workplace relations can provide valuable insights into organisational anxiety and organisational malpractice. I used the psychodynamic lenses and specialised in the Object Relations School in terms of exploration of the self as affected by interpersonal and organisational spaces.
Area of expertise
I am passionate about impactful research into:
- health and wellbeing at work (individual and organisational wellness, critique of wellbeing practices),
- affect at work, specifically anxiety and other affective sufferings induced through organisational malpractice,
- creativity at work, creative expression, and supporting/suppressing structures at work,
- AI in organisations, future of work as well as teaching with AI,
- entrepreneurship studies, innovation and diversity and inclusion/ inequalities in accessing opportunities,
- deployment of qualitative and mixed methods to examine the working lives of individuals and the intricacies of organisational life.
