My core expertise lies in the translation and facilitation of theory-led reserach results to different groups of stakeholders. Over the years, I planned and lead workshops on the subject areas mentioned below for people with all different background, varying from Chinese delegations to multinational Union representatives to local politicians and communities.
My teaching covers a broad range of HRM relevant subject areas. I am convinced that engaged teaching needs to be research-led. Our Department is an excellent place to follow this approach.

My reserach interests are in the broad area of changing work and employment structures. Over the last years, I did research the impact of the implementation of New Public Management on public servants in different nations and sectors (police, waste collection, energy). More recently, I started to investigate in the effects robotics-led workplaces will have on job quality. I am also interested in reseraching trade unions, particularly in terms of their representational and oragnisational capacities. My reserach relies on inter-disciplinary as well as international collaborations.
