Research interests
Specialist areas of interest
I am interested in professional reflection and how this can impact on leadership performance. I am especially interested in how professionals reflect together and how this affects leaders’ resilience and professional relationships. I am currently researching into the impact on leaders when their public sector organisations scapegoat them.
