Broadly speaking, my research focuses on understanding the nature and dynamics of team effectiveness in organizations. Nearly all my research examines processes at the team level, addressing both theoretical and practical issues in the study of team effectiveness.
My general line of research examines how team processes and emergent states (e.g., psychological safety, team cohesion) influence individual and team outcomes. I use a multi-method approach to studying team-level interactions and emergent states. A specific focus of my research is on how teams adapt when facing extreme events. Therefore, I collaborate with a number of healthcare institutions in Europe, various Polar Programs, and the European Space Agency. Such extreme settings provide a unique platform to learn from rare team phenomena and transfer this knowledge to more traditional organizations.
