Research Interests
My research interests vary but there is one topic that relates them: employee retention. I am interested understanding what keeps employees in their organisations and jobs. HRM practices are explored as the antecedents of employee commitment, engagement and turnover in my research. In addition to studying the link between HRM practices and desired employee outcomes in a broader context, M&As context intrigues me since many of these change events result in disappointment due to not managing employee expectations properly.
