About

Dr Leighann Spencer is a senior lecturer (associate professor) in Organisational Behaviour at the University of Liverpool Management School.

Leighann’s research interests fall into two substantive domains of workplace mistreatment and the integration of scholarship and practice, which are threaded together by a strong interest in creative and longitudinal qualitative research methods. In particular, Leighann has a keen interest in qualitative diary methodology, specifically the use of mobile technologies, which in collaboration with Dr Laura Radcliffe has been featured by the NCRM, SAGE research methods and the LSE Impact blog.

As of January 2021, Leighann is a member of the Journal of Management Studies (JMS; FT50) editorial review board.
