Thesis Title: Virtually a Leader: Mitigating Process Losses through Shared Team States
About
Largely, my research focuses on leadership, diversity, and bias. In the field of leadership, I am primarily interested in issues relating to gender and leadership, and the circumstances under which women are evaluated as worse or better leaders than men. I also have done some research on the effects of leadership on relationships amongst group members.
In terms of my interest in diversity, again, I am primarily interested in gender concerns. However, I am also interested in researching cross-cultural issues and the role of implicit versus explicit discrimination in recommendations for hire.
My interest in bias overlaps with my research in diversity, but extends further to issues addressing bias in a more broad sense (e.g. prior information bias, halo bias), and interventions that may help overcome bias.
Finally, my quantitative research interests encompass, amongst other concerns, complexity theory, item response theory, and the application of signal detection theory in organizational research.
My Masters thesis focused on the role of leadership in mitigating process losses in virtual teams through the formation of shared team states.
For my dissertation, I will develop a process model of bias and apply it to gender and leadership issues. Concerns regarding effective interventions for the reduction of bias will be addressed.
