The Master thesis in Innovation Management (IM) and Operations Management & Logistics (OML)

Supervising students in writing a Master thesis and conducting Master research within IM and OML, I am particularly interested in projects related to:

1. Job stress, health and performance;

2. Work (re-)design, health and performance;

3. Innovative office designs: antecedents and consequences;

4. Employee creative behavior at work: antecedents and consequences;

5. Counterproductive behavior at work: antecedents and consequences;

6. The older worker in the organization: work (re-)design and
    employability;

7. Use of high-tech simulation techniques in healthcare.

More information about my research interests as well as a list of projects and publications can be found on this website.

Furthermore, I am interested in supervising (1) fundamental, knowledge-driven projects, and (2) applied, problem-solving projects.

Examples of (1) are (a) the development of theoretical models on job stress and performance, (b) more insight into the role of counterproductive behavior at work (whether or not in relation to the use of ICT), and (c) the relation between individual and team training in a high-tech simulation environment in the prediction of e.g. performance, learning behavior, mental fatigue and human errors.

Examples of (2) are (a) the consequences of flexible office designs (in terms of well-being and performance), (b) the role of ICT in the prediction of employee creativity, and (c) the mobility and employability of older workers in companies.
