Research

In meiner Forschung untersuche ich soziale Einflussprozesse am Arbeitsplatz und darüber hinaus. Mich interessiert wie Menschen (und Maschinen) sich gegenseitig beeinflussen. Hauptsächlich beschäftigen mich die Themen Mensch-KI Interaktion, Leadership, Zeitmanagement und neuartige Forschungsmethoden (Machine Learning, Open Science). Meine Forschung wurde u.a. mit einer Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellowship der Europäischen Union, dem Best Junior Researcher Award der School of Business and Economics (Universität Maastricht), dem Best Overall Paper (Organizational Behavior) der Academy of Management, dem Open Science Award der Young European Research Universities Network (YERUN), und dem Best Dissertation Award der JLU Gießen ausgezeichnet. Meine Forschungsarbeiten sind in führenden internationalen Outlets wie Organizational Research Methods, Personnel Psychology, Journal of Management, Journal of Organizational Behavior, The Leadership Quarterly, Journal of Business Ethics, oder Science Advances erschienen. Meine Forschung wurde von der Europäischen Union, der Deutschen Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) und dem Center for Open Science gefördert.

Ich bin Mitglied des Editorial Board des Journal of Organizational Behavior, und Ad-Hoc Reviewer für Journals wie Nature: Human Behavior, Journal of Applied Psychology, Journal of Management Studies und Human Relations. Ich bin Mitglied bei der Academy of Management (AOM) und der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Psychologie (DGPs) und im Beirat der Initiative ARIM (Advancement of Replications Initiative in Management).

Ich bin Mitbegründer der Credible Management Research Initiative, die sich für offene, qualitativ hochwertige und transparente Forschung einsetzt.
