I am Senior Lecturer in Organization Studies and a member of the Work Aesthetics Research Group, which is affiliated with the Entrepreneurship Knowledge Platform at the School of Business and Economics.
Research
My research interests are:
- Office design and architecture, with particular focus on open-plan, playful and creative offices
- Girlhood and girls in organizations and entrepreneurship
- Post-colonial theory and issues related to workplace diversity
- The climate change and the Anthropocene
I am currently working on
- A paper on a re-framing of Anthropocene through scholarship of Jaques Rancière
- A paper on how office spaces are curated by the architects and designers (presented at EGOS 2017 in Copenhagen)
- A paper on the absence of girly aesthetical themes in playful office design (upcoming presentation in November 2017 at the Entrepreneurship Knowledge Platform)
- A paper on the relationship between office space, creativity and surveillance
