Thank you for visiting Lit Hous Education. We offer research, consultancy and learning across the areas of organisation and management with particular expertise in the health and education sectors. Lit Hous Education is led by Professor Robert McMurray
My name is Robert McMurray. I am Visiting Professor of Organisation Studies at Sheffield University Management School. Prior to this I was Professor & Associate Dean for Education at Sheffield University Management School, UK; Academic Director/Dean at RCSI Graduate School of Healthcare Management in Ireland; Deputy Dean at the University of York Management School, UK (where I also had a visiting position), and Reader in Management at Durham Univeristy. I've worked in higher education as researcher and lecturer for over 30 years. I have a passion for understanding the lives of others, particularly as it relates to practices of leading, managing and working. I am really interested in how improve the ways that we organise, deelop effective and caring maangement and help people cope with difficult jobs. This site is mostly about my research, writing and consulting. If you'd like to get in touch you can email me at profmcmurray@gmail.com.
The first series of books to have been produced on the women who have shaped organisation and management as a field. An important and ground breaking series offering new insights from authors around the globe (RFWWOS). Available in hardback or ebook in the usual places, I highly recommend it (I know I am biased) if you want to think about organising and managing differently.
If you want to contribute to the series then please do get in touch.
