Research Interests

Team dynamics and organizations:

• Dynamic team boundaries

(Physical dispersion and virtual collaboration, boundary spanning, multi-teaming, sub-team formation, and moving on and off the team) and their consequences (team cohesion vs. participant alignment, boundary-spanning coordination for sustainable innovation)

• Team collaboration in fluid contexts

(Pandemic and war crisis, wicked problems of sustainability, changing working spaces and organizational cultures)
