Teaching

Undergraduate teaching

I taught full-time at two Universities from 1996 to 2021 before setting up my own business. I taught social and cognitive psychology, research methods and statistics. I designed and ran many modules. My teaching ranged from individual to small groups to lectures of >250 students. I am a Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.

Professional courses

I designed a 2-day course for the Business School on Board Effectiveness, teaching board members about effective decision making in the boardroom.
