Research interests
Most communication at work happens informally. These spontaneous interactions are tremendously important for organizational and team functioning. In my research, I am particularly interested in the role of informal communication in a changing working world, where teams may work together from afar and in which the "social aspects" of work gain more importance for the employee. I further investigate mundane yet complex group interaction behaviors such as workplace gossip.
