Biografia
És professora adjunta de Comportament Organitzacional al Departament de Direcció de
Persones i Organització d'ESADE. Abans d'incorporar-se a ESADE, fou professora i investigadora
sènior de la Universitat d'Oxford. També ha estat acadèmica investigadora del Max-Planck
Institute per a l'estudi de la diversitat ètnica i religiosa a Alemanya. És doctora
en Psicologia Social i llicenciada matrícula d'honor en Psicologia Aplicada. Els seus
interessos de recerca se centren principalment en la psicologia social i organitzacional,
i en el comportament organitzacional. La seva recerca actual estudia tres àrees interrelacionades:
1. La identitat social i la dinàmica intergrupal. Aquesta recerca analitza els processos
principals per mitjà dels quals es poden gestionar les relacions a dins dels grups
i dels equips, i entre ells, i es poden resoldre els conflictes. També examina el
paper que tenen els processos d'identitat social sobre el benestar i la salut.2. La
gestió de múltiples grups. Aquesta recerca analitza de quina manera els individus
donen sentit i perceben la seva pertinença a múltiples grups i se centra especialment
en els antecedents i les conseqüències de la complexitat de la identitat social.3.
La diversitat, el prejudici i els estereotips. Aquesta línia de recerca estudia la
correlació i les conseqüències de la diversitat en diferents contextos, a fi d'entendre
com es poden gestionar eficaçment els potencials reptes de la diversitat, com es pot
construir la confiança a dins d'un grup i entre grups, i com es poden reduir els prejudicis.Els
seus estudis s'han publicat en les principals revistes acadèmiques, com ara Psychological
Science; Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin; el Journal of Personality and
Social Psychology, i els Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, entre d'altres.
La seva recerca també ha estat citada en informes de premsa p. ex., a The Guardian.
És directora adjunta de la revista Group Processes and Intergroup Relations.
