Phoenix Van Wagoner
AlumniNote: Phoenix Van Wagoner has transitioned from the institute (Alumni).
I have a background in economics, and I hold a doctorate from the Organizational Leadership and Information Analytics department at the University of Colorado Boulder Leeds School of Business, USA. My dissertation is cross-disciplinary, drawing on the literature on workplace emotion and clinical psychology to understand how emotions and mental health affect workplace outcomes. More generally, my research explores questions at the nexus between leadership, diversity, and mental health, with the goal of promoting healthy and successful careers for all individuals, but especially for those individuals with a marginalized identity. While research is my passion, I thrive in an environment where I can incorporate my research on leadership and diversity into the classroom. I do so through experiential learning exercises coupled with Socratic discussion and written reflection.
