Experience in Industry
I am commercial lead for the Leadership and Organisation group and have been involved in the development of a number of accreditations of in-company Learning and Development programmes. I have experience of delivering corporate programmes and working with individuals to achieve their learning objectives. I have been involved in consultancy work related to HR strategy and also been a Director responsible for these areas in a third sector organisation specialising in community cohesion.
Faculty: Business, Computing and Law
School: Derby Business School
Subject Area: Human Resource Management
I am the Faculty Lead for Corporate Accreditations Quality Management and a Senior Lecturer in Human Resource Management and Organisational Behaviour.
Supporting the Faculty and School vison:
Part of my role is ensuring that Derby Business School's work in the wider business community is knowledge based, insightful and that it contributes to individual and organisational goals. I am always keen to engage students in learning that is relevant and applicable to the organisations in which they work. My research is focused upon generating and communicating knowledge that can be applied to make demonstrable difference to organisations but which also contributes to the currency of the School's programmes.
Teaching responsibilities
My main teaching is in the area of organisational behaviour and HRM which includes subjects related to how people are managed and developed in organisations. I have also taught Corporate Social Responsibility and Business Ethics on Undergraduate and Postgraduate programmes. I supervise Undergraduate and Postgraduate research projects on a range of HR and OB related subjects and also contribute to programme and curriculum development in these areas.

Research interests
My research is focused upon knowledge workers and their relationships with organisations. This is particularly concerned with the IT sector, examining IT professionals, the way that they perceive their jobs and themselves. Other foci of my research are commitment to organisations, professional identity and job satisfaction. One of the outputs from my research is an evaluation of the types of HR strategies that are used to manage this group of workers and development of future strategies which are particularly pertinent to management of this group.

Additional Interests and Activities
I am passionate about learning and development which is underpinned by high quality research and application of knowledge. The link between university education and commercial application is a particular focus for me and I love to inspire learners to use their knowledge and skills to improve who they are and what they do. Personally, I am passionate about learning new things and developing new knowledge which is why research and investigation are so important to me. There is always something new to learn, something new to experience, a different view to consider and that's what excites me.
