Profile
Biography
I am Lecturer (Assistant Professor) of Business & Management since October 2022 with an interest at the intersection of Human Resource Management/Organizational Behaviour, Knowledge Management, and (Counter)productive Organizational Behaviours. I completed PhD from the University of Hong Kong in July 2022. I served as the Module Co-leader and Lecturer of Knowledge Management for master's in Library & Information Management program at the University of Hong Kong. The primary theme of my research is to improve the employee wellbeing and behavioural performance. Thereby, I investigate the managerial practices, the factors, and the complex interactions between them that can affect the employee wellbeing and performance (non)favourably. My research deals with a range of ex-ante and ex-post aspects of wellbeing and behavioural performance, including but not limited to the wellbeing during religious fasting, menstruation, knowledge sharing, and knowledge hiding. I have published impactful research studies on the above theme in renowned subject-matter journals, including but not limited to the Journal of Business Research (Web of Science ESI Top 1% Highly Cited Articles), Technovation, the Journal of Knowledge Management, Computers & Education, and Journal of Organizational Effectiveness: People & Performance amongst others. My research papers have achieved several distinctions, such as the two Web of Science ESI Top 1% Highly Cited Articles, Best Research Postgraduate Paper Award, and the Journal's Most Downloaded Article. Further, my research has been appeared in the European Union's 2020 Innovation Policy Report. I have been PI and Co-PI of several grants amounting about 100,000 US Dollars from the University of Hong Kong as well as King Abdulaziz University, Saudi Arabia. I am an Executive Editor of Knowledge Management & E-Learning, a SSCI indexed journal published by the University of Hong Kong, as well as editorial advisory board member of academic and practitioner journals including Management Decision (one of the long-running journals of the management field), Journal of Small Business and Enterprise Development, and International Journal of HRD: Practice, Policy & Research. I review for several journals including Journal of Business Research, Info & Management, and Studies in Higher Education amongst others. I was awarded the Publons/Web of Science Top Peer-review Award in 2018. I love collaborating, helping, and supervising enthusiastic postgraduate research students. The interested collaborators and PhD students should always feel free to contact me on my email. My life is not just limited to the academia 😊. I like running, reading, and enjoying the company of my favourite people in my leisure time.
