About
I am a social-organizational psychologist by training, and have over 20 years of professional experience in higher education, organizational change and development, marketing, as well as diversity and inclusion in private and nonprofit sectors. As a researcher, I'm most curious about topics that intersect conflict management, diversity, equity, and inclusion at group and organizational levels. As a tertiary educator, I teach social science research designs and methods to help my students explore and address important conflict issues they care about. I also teach organizational conflict management systems to cultivate students' understanding and design of complex conflict management dynamics and processes in teams and organizations. Last but not least, I am actively involved in providing research-based advice and expertise to support organizations in advancing diversity, inclusion, and other pursuits of organizational excellence.

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.
