I am now working on several projects studying follower survival strategies, follower-leader distance, indirect leadership, follower/employee silence and employee struggles of (semi-)professional working life in finance industry. I am particularly interested in exploring these within virtual/ digitalized workplaces, temporary/non-standard work relations and non-western contexts.
