About
I am an Associate Professor in Organisational Behaviour and a chartered psychologist. I received my PhD and a MBA from the University of Surrey; awarded a First-class Honour of BSc in Psychology from the Open University. My PhD research investigated the professional identity and disclosure of UK Engineers and was fully funded by the University of Surrey and supported by six professional bodies of engineers in the UK. For my PhD work on identity I received Postdoctoral Research Fellowship funding award by the Economic Social Research Council (ESRC) which enabled me to work as a post doc at the University of Surrey and Linköping University, Sweden.  Following on, I was a Research Fellow in Organisational Behaviour and Research Methods at the School of Management at University of Surrey, and Lecturer in Organisational Behaviour at Surrey Business School. I attained the Fellow status of the UK Higher Education Academy in 2011. My wide variety of experience derived not only from academia but also from industry: voluntary work with non-governmental organisations in Africa and Europe, head of sales and marketing in Asia, business consultant in the UK and project lead in establishing University partnership between University of Surrey and Dongbei University of Finance and Economics, China. This joint academic partnership institution is now known as SII- DUFE. I am currently leading and researching a number of impactful and exciting projects, such as religious identity and working for the NHS, identity conflict and complementarity in a wide range of organisations (banking, law, education, business, and healthcare) and leadership in church organisations in the UK and the USA.

It had eleven participating organizations, ranging from universities to industry to human rights organizations, amongst others. The SHERPA project investigated, analyzed and synthesized our understanding of the ways in which Smart Information Systems (SIS - involving big data analytics and artificial intelligence) impact ethics and human rights issues. It developed novel ways of understanding and addressing their challenges, evaluated with stakeholders, and advocated the most desirable and sustainable solutions. My role in this project focused on the ethical evaluation of particular SIS technologies, the companies and organizations that use and implement them, and the societal implications of their widespread adoption and integration. As part of my role, I liaised with international organizations from an array of societal domains and evaluate their use of these emerging technologies.
