Work with thought leaders and academic experts in applied psychology

Companies can benefit from working with someone whose expertise is in the field of Applied Psychology in several ways. Applied Psychology researchers can provide valuable insights into consumer behavior, helping companies understand their target audience and develop effective marketing strategies. They can also assist in improving employee well-being and performance through the implementation of evidence-based practices. Additionally, Applied Psychology experts can contribute to the development of organizational policies and procedures that promote a positive work environment and enhance productivity. Collaborating with an academic researcher in Applied Psychology can lead to improved customer satisfaction, increased employee engagement, and overall business success.

About
I am Senior Lecturer in Organisational Behaviour at University of Surrey in the UK. My research is focused on identity and its impact on wellbeing in people’s working lives; impact of multiple social identities on well-being and performance; social identity dynamics in leadership; role of identity in knowledge sharing behaviour; and evidence-based management. 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. 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.

I've spent over a decade researching, writing, consulting, and teaching about interpersonal relationships, human interactions, and people-problems in organizations. My early academic work centered on work stress, organizational politics, and dysfunctional leadership, and through the years I've broadened my focus to explore a wider range of human issues in the workplace. My passion for understanding and repairing interpersonal issues led to my current role as Director of the Tyson Center for Faith-Friendly Workplaces, a center dedicated to increasing religious tolerance, interfaith understanding, and acceptance of religious diversity in the workplace.

As a consultant to UMASS Medical School Department of Human Resources, the following was accomplished: * Developed, analyzed (SPSS) and interpreted an HR Customer Satisfaction Survey that was electronically (Feedback Server) administered to 100% of the employees.  * Conducted a study to explore ways to improve the non-unit performance management system, which included employee and manager surveys as well 4 workshops with upper management. * Developed a manager-leader competency model. <br> As a consultant for Aptima Inc., used my real-world (e.g., military and professional consulting) experience and academic training to create innovative solutions for problems posed by DOD customers, for example:   * Empirically identified traits of leaders’ experiences that facilitated their development as leaders. This research was subsequently published in *The Leadership & Organization Development Journal*. * Created a tractable method for identifying and integrating heterogeneous data sources in a way that provided the most useful and valid training assessment and performance information for Air Force pilots, in a complex, dynamic, joint team environment.  * Developed realistic intelligence scenarios for HUMINT Analysts that were used to test the usability and utility of three computer search engines.  * Provided the conceptual and functional framework for facilitating collaborative critical thinking within a team-based, computed guided environment.  The conceptual components of this work were published in *Issues in Higher Education*.
