As Professor of Human Resource Management, Emma leads the Changing World of Work Group and serves as editor-in-chief of the International Journal of Human Resource Management. She has authored "Managing People in a Contemporary Context" and edited six additional books while spearheading global research networks including Cranet and 5C.
Emma's research provides organisations with practical frameworks to navigate critical workplace challenges, particularly regarding technological disruption, demographic shifts, and generational diversity. Her extensive work in the defence sector has yielded valuable insights into human capability development that help businesses build resilient workforces capable of adapting to rapidly changing environments.
