Embodiment at work
I work as an assistant professor (tenure track) in the Department of Management and Organisation at the Turku School of Economics, Pori Unit. I defended my Ph.D. thesis on the embodied agency of professional dancers in 2017. I am a docent of organisational aesthetics and have previously worked at the Turku School of Economics and Aalto University, as well as undertaking research visits across Europe.
Broadly speaking, I study embodiment at work. Posthumanism, the embodiment of leadership and vulnerability as a resource for work communities are my current research interests. Methodologically, I specialise in ethnography and the use of creative research methods.
As a researcher, I am endlessly curious about different phenomena and life stories. For me, research is a constant development of my own experience and thinking, which I get to experience with people who inspire me.
