Leadership is an important predictor of employee performance and organizational effectiveness. The research around leadership usually focus on identifying the specific relationships between different types of leadership style and organizational outcomes. Our team focus on building and assessing specific leadership capacity in fostering and maintaining safety culture in organizations. In addition, we conduct research in leadership for improving team effectiveness in multi-team systems. Another stream of research of this team targets identifying workplace stressors and stress mitigation strategies for employees working under rapid organizational change.
The goal of the Leadership, Workplace Safety and Stress team is to advance our knowledge in the aforementioned areas in I/O psychology. Students' participation in all stages of conducting rigorous scientific research is strongly encouraged. As a result, students’ contribution is highly valued in this team.
