Current Work

My research is about the role and function of values in work and organization development.

Decent Work; modelling and measuring decent work, from the employer persepective, in large employers including Local Authorites, and in the SME sector including manufacturing, hospitality, retail and service organizations .

Innovation through work and management adopting non-hierarchical cultures and values based approaches to leading and performance

The role and function of values is associated with some key themes in management and inter-disciplinary research, connected to the UWS agenda and the school; including wellbeing, social responsibility, skills and innovation. There is great potential for knowledge and impact across these themes.
