- Profile
-
I earned my PhD in Management from Warwick Business School (WBS) in September 2018. Currently I am a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in Healthcare Management and Leadership at The University of Sheffield. In March 2020 I completed my Post-Doctoral Fellowship at WBS evaluating the UK National Health Service (NHS) partnership with Virginia Mason Institute (USA).
I have over 10 years of health management experience in public and private healthcare in Canada, USA, and UK.
- Research interests
-
Using qualitative methods, I draw upon organisational theory to develop a deeper understanding of critical issues in healthcare management. My research interests include employee voice, psychological contracts, patient safety, and quality improvement. Currently, this includes two studies:
- The emotional antecedents of employee voice in professional hierarchy;
- how an explicit psychological contract between a health system regulator and hospital CEOs was created and maintained throughout a five-year partnership, to facilitate and govern transformative change.
