If so, we invite you to join our team and embark on an intellectually stimulating adventure. During this adventure, you will contribute to IEBIS broad portfolio of cutting-edge research and valorisation projects for international and national organisations.
You will benefit from an interdisciplinary team of people management, human resource management (HRM) and organization studies experts conducting impactful and innovative research on control and trust, people analytics, algorithmic management, innovation ecosystems, and "robots as new team members". As such, you will join the IEBIS section of the High-tech Business & Entrepreneurship Department (HBE) at the Faculty of Behavioural Management and Social Sciences.
The challenge
With this post-doctoral research project, we strive to deepen our understanding of trust and vulnerability as crucial aspects of humankind, and, thus, also interpersonal relationships at work. Scholars across domains have unanimously recognized that vulnerability lies at the heart of trust, grounded in positive expectations. Nevertheless, despite its pivotal role, the precise nuances of vulnerability within the context of trust remain under-explored. This shortage of knowledge becomes even more worrisome as growing levels of technological sophistication in the workplace highlight human vulnerability and "reshuffle" the foundation on which trust was believed to be built.
Information and application
Are you interested in joining our interdisciplinary team ? Please submit your application before July 31st 2024, and include:
- A cover letter (maximum 2 pages A4), emphasizing your qualification and motivation for applying to this position;
- A short research proposal (maximum 1 page A4) outlining your ideas on what questions/empirical phenomena you would like to address during the Post-Doc project;
