About

I’m a tenure-track assistant professor of Management at the University of Mannheim in Germany.

My research interests focus on organizational behavior in teams and organizations, specifically how diversity, responsible leadership, and organizational change efforts shape social dynamics and organizational performance. My research has been published in the Academy of Management Journal, Organization Science, Journal of Applied Psychology, Journal of Management, Journal of Organizational Behavior, Human Resource Management, Human Relations, and Harvard Business Review among others. My research has been featured on various news outlets, including MarketWatch, Morningstar, ZEIT, Süddeutsche, ZDFheute, and Handelsblatt. I received national and international awards for my research, such as the Schmalenbach-Preis 2020 for the best dissertation in business administration and Best Paper Awards from the Academy of Management’s DEI and OB divisions.

I teach Corporate Social Responsibility, Leadership, Teamwork, and Change Management at the Bachelor and Master level and supervise theses in these areas. Here is my homepage at University of Mannheim.
