Supervisory Team Role: to contribute as qualitative researcher specialising in Contemporary Organisational Ethnography. Specifically, to oversee the development of a research design that will serve as a way for (a) learning more about the organisational worlds being studied and (b) a method for developing theories to understand them. By viewing the research as constructed, rather than discovered, this fosters a researchers' reflexivity about their actions and decisions.
This project favours a Constructivist Grounded Theory approach (Sharmaz,2014) to inform policy and professional practice.
