Research interests

Zahira’s research focuses on multilevel relationships in today’s hyperconnected organisations, where hierarchies are becoming more fluid, or even virtual. Her latest research focuses on how job seekers experience automated video job interviews (AVIs). She studies managers as connecting leaders, rather than bureaucrats. She investigates connecting leaders’ ability to facilitate relational, dialectic processes, dealing openly with dilemmas and conflicts, focusing on tensions surrounding voice, empathy, authenticity.
