Profile

Biography

Much of my research is aimed at studying individuals at work, how their work activities are shaped, managed and controlled, and how this impacts on their lives. Previous research has focused on performance management in public sector organisations, and more recently on the management and self-management of freelance work. I have drawn on social theory and psychoanalysis (notably that of Jacques Lacan) to conceptualise the ways in which everyday discourses and images influence taken-for-granted assumptions and routines in the workplace and outside of it. At the moment, I am running a research project that is focused on the labour process and context of freelance work, which involves research in the Netherlands, UK and Germany. Other research has focused on financialisation and higher education, strategies of deliberate controversy in advertising and journalism, and the labour of musicians, among other things. I am currently working on a research project that traces the discursive and stylistic influence of behaviouralpsychology on management.
