Her primary research interests circumvent human behavior and smart technology, and she is experienced in the deployment of qualitative research methods. Her PhD research area is the integration of emerging technologies in the workplace, specifically the impact of Artificial Intelligence based systems on work design and productivity in the world of work.

My PhD research incorporates three areas: culture, gender and promotion in organisations. In particular, it focuses on the role of gender in career progression.

Karoly is a doctoral researcher in the IMS in psychology. Since 2013, he has been teaching in British, Emirati and Hungarian universities, currently in the University of Greenwich and Birkbeck College, University of London. He is a graduate member of the British Psychological Society and member of the Hungarian Psychological Association. He graduated in psychology in the University of Westminster, where he also completed his MSc in Health Psychology.

Karoly is interested in contextual behavioural science; he researches psychological flexibility, a fundamental mechanism that underlies human behaviour, well-being and performance. By targeting psychological flexibility with acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and relational frame theory (RFT) based techniques he aims to increase the productivity, well-being of individuals and cohesiveness in dyads, small groups and organisations. He is interested to apply and develop these techniques among already high-performing individuals and groups such as: British and Hungarian Olympic and Paralympic athletes and coaches and recently with analogue astronauts and flight control centres in Mars analogue isolated space mission simulations. 

His further research interests involve organisational behaviour and leadership, mindfulness, flow experiences, sport psychology, human factors in aviation and space psychology and psychology of tattoos. He is curious if long-term meditation practice can slow down age-related cognitive decline, and perhaps, to a degree, can serve as protection against dementia/Alzheimer disease. 

Adrian is a doctoral researcher in the Institute of Management Studies. His research is examining the role of psychological flexibility as underpinning adaptive behaviour and the individual’s relationship with an organisation, in times of significant organisational change. 

Adrian’s background is as a senior experience consultant - agency and client side. A key part of this role involved looking at ways in which human-computer interaction and use of technology could be improved. As part of this, business propositions, products and services were analysed to understand if there was a business case for their development and if so, to provide insight into how best these could be developed from a user and business perspective. He has travelled extensively in this role across Europe and in South America.

Most recently he has spent seven years in Paris teaching in institutions including the Sorbonne in areas including communication and digital research.
