More...

At present, she has two research streams. Her longstanding work has been at the intersection of positive psychology and learning from feedback. More recently, she has launched a program of research looking at the experiences of multiracial people at work. Generally, she is interested in how people learn, acquire knowledge, make choices, and negotiate with one another in order to succeed. She believes that learning and development are socially constructed and, therefore, looks at the individuals and networks that surround people as a way of understanding conditions for success. She is currently serving on the editorial boards of Organizational Dynamics, Human Resources Management Review, Human Resource Development Quarterly, and Career Development International.
