- About Me:
- My primary research interest relates to international human resource management. My PhD thesis examines a new typology of IHRM theory focussing on the role of geography and mobility in international assignments. This research was conducted using a major IT multinational over a period of three years, interviewing and surveying the global executive management team as well as the Australia and New Zealand HR divisions. Her research also encompasses issues of cultural difference and adjustment, and organisational commitment.
With a background in applied microeconomics, I also has an interest in segmentation and labour market outcomes. My future research program will be focussing on the role of mobility in skilled worker migration to regional Australia, and how employees make mobility decisions with regards to work/life balance issues. This project will be completed in the later half of 2008.
I have taught courses at all levels in areas such as HR, International management and organisational behaviour. In addition to this, I am a member of the Doctoral Students’ Committee of the IM Division of the Academy of Management, and a member of the Academy of International Business and the Australian Human Resource Institute.
I am currently training for a half marathon and can't wait for the outdoor pools to open for the summer here in Australia!
