Current research: 

In my current research, which is an ethnographic study, I explore the integration of conversational AI within team environments, focusing on its impact on team dynamics and managerial relationships in the context of sustainability innovation. By dissecting the complex interactions between managers, conversational AI, and team members, I aim to uncover how these technologies influence collaborative efforts toward sustainable outcomes. The study examines the potential of conversational AI to either align with or disrupt existing team structures and decision-making processes, which are critical in developing sustainable solutions. Through this lens, I intend to reveal how conversational AI can transform traditional management approaches and enhance the innovative capacities of teams working on sustainability challenges.
