I am Professor of Work & Organisational Psychology and part of the leadership team at the Centre for Workplace Excellence. Through my research I'm interested in understanding psychosocial influences on well-being at work, so most of my research is in the area of occupational health psychology. My focal areas are workplace bullying, occupational stress, and mindfulness.
I currently serve on the editorial boards of the Journal of Occupational Health Psychology and International Journal of Stress Management.
