Research Interests
I am fascinated by questions of "disruption." My research attempts to better understand how social actors (e.g., people, organizations) transform organizations and institutions. I also examine how institutions impact social actors.
As an example of my work, see my 2018 paper on institutional disruption or my recent paper published in Organization discussing sites for social change. Moreover, my upcoming book (under contract with Cornell University/ILR Press) details how organizations can disrupt white norms within organizations.
To date, I have authored or co-authored more than 30 peer-reviewed journal articles. These papers are published (or accepted) in the following journals: Organization, Journal of Management Inquiry, Sport Management Review, Journal of Sport Management, African Journal of Business and Economic Research, International Review for the Sociology of Sport, International Journal of Sport Management, Journal of Issues in Intercollegiate Athletics, and International Journal of Sport Management and Marketing, among others. I am currently working on papers addressing the following topics:
- Diversity within the “c-suite” level of organizations
- Organizational culture & design
