I am absolutely honored and still in utter disbelief that the Swiss National Science Foundation has awarded me with a 1.2million PRIMA grant to form a small team to study extra-curricular and network-based paths to (more diverse) leadership. I’ll be working closely with the Centre for Diversity & Inclusion at the University of St. Gallen for 5 years, starting in Janury 2021.

I’m delighted to share that I just won a Lehrkredit teaching innovation grant to develop and lead a new course on soft skills for our future leaders at the University of Zurich.
Such a course is increasingly necessary in light of the rising rates of digital disruptions, computer-mediated-communication, and employee diversity, as soft skills like humor separate humans from robots and are critical for successfully interacting with people with diverse backgrounds and interests. This interdisciplinary course will blend science and practice with an all-star line-up of guest lecturers (e.g., Swiss comedian Fabian Unteregger).
Master's students will get the first chance to participate in this course in Fall 2019, after which it will be offered once more for master’s students (in Spring 2020) and again for PhD students (in Fall 2020).
