Summary

I am a member of the Organisations and People Division in µÚÒ»³Ô¹ÏÍøBusiness School. My research interests focus on hybrid management and leadership development in organisations including healthcare and business education, intersectionality, ethnic minority micro-enterprises, and workplace well-being. I use qualitative research methods, interdisciplinary, and international perspectives. I welcome ideas for collaborations and proposals from organisations and prospective doctoral students whose interests align with my research areas in engaged scholarship to make a positive impact linked to UN SDGs 3, 5, 8, and 10 in particular.

I have (co)led research projects on gender and medical leadership development with AIIMS, New Delhi; on workforce redesign in Airedale Hospital; and HRM in regional SMEs, including Chevening, NHS England, and EU Erasmus+ funding. I have published in journals such as the Academy of Management Learning & Education; Gender, Work & Organization; Journal of Business Research; Journal of Health Organization and Management; Stress and Health, and co-authored papers with plastic surgeons and ophthalmologists. For three years I served as an Associate Editor of Human Resource Development Review.

I have conducted research, consultancy, and executive education in Australia, Cambodia, China, India, Kuwait, Mozambique, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore and Vietnam in airline, banking, energy, and healthcare organisations. I initiated and facilitated EFMD’s international development programme and AAPBS workshops for business school deans. I also have extensive distance learning teaching experience on the Open University’s MBA and have taught next level leadership and managing change at London Business School. I was the inaugural Director of the MBA Health programme in the Global Business School for Health at University College London.
